Cruise Part 3.5: How big is the ship?

We sailed on Royal Caribbean's Adventure of the Seas. Its passenger capacity is 3,114. Its length is 1020 feet. Its gross tonnage is 138,000. It has a 3-floor dinning room that seats 1500, 15 decks, a theater, meeting space, shops, 2 pools, some hot tubs, a buffet, an ice skating rink, etc. But what does that all really mean?

Can you find my dad in this picture?

Here's a closer look.

Here's the ship from across the water on ground level in St. Thomas.

Now here's the ship from Paradise Point in St. Thomas which is 700 ft. up.
