The first day is a wrap on Royal Caribbean's first cruise ship to return to service, and we have a look at some of the evening activities onboard.
Quantum of the Seas set sail from Singapore on December 1, and is the first Royal Caribbean ship to offer passenger service again since the cruise industry shutdown in mid-March.
Guests boarded Quantum of the Seas in the morning, and the ship set sail on a 3-night cruise with no port stops and only available to residents of Singapore. It is an important test for a whole series of brief cruises Royal Caribbean hopes to operate in the coming months.
You can view photos from check-in and embarkation to catch up on everything else so far.
The Singapore Cruise Society are sharing photos from onboard the ship with RoyalCaribbeanBlog, and we now have a look at how the evening shaped up.

Entertainment and fun things to do
The SeaPlex on Quantum of the Seas offers a lot of fun activities to do onboard, and Bumper Cars were open for guests to enjoy.
Crew members take guests' temperatures waiting for bumper cars. Our friends reported that the lines were long, but they did move quickly.
Cruise staff will sanitize each of the bumper cars between each sessions, which takes about 2 minutes.
Over in the theater, guests can enjoy the production shows in a socially distanced manner.
Certain seats are marked as unavailable in order to enforce social distancing.
