I remember going on a cruise with my family some years back on a ship with a passenger capacity of over 3,000 people. We boarded in Singapore for the four-night voyage, and then later sailed to Port Klang and Phuket in Thailand.

We had some free time in Singapore before sailing began so we explored the city and checked out some of its popular tourist spots. We even bought some clothes and items we may need on the cruise.
