Unfortunately, with eight ships in port today, the traffic bogged down so it was slow going to reach our terminal. Here is the MSC Seascape at Terminal “C”…..

 

 

The Carnival Spirit is at Terminal “D”…….

 

 

This terminal sign says that we’re heading in the right direction…..

 

 

We pass the Norwegian Encore at Terminal “E”…..

 

 

 

We finally reach the Carnival Celebration at Terminal “F”……

 

 

 

We pull over here and drop off our luggage…..

 

 

We now have to drive down the road a little bit to park in Parking Deck “G”. The Grandeur OTS is docked at Terminal “G”……

 

 

 

Once in Parking Deck “G”, we found a spot to park on the second level. We took the stairs down, and then made the short walk back to Terminal “F”. Our cruise journey is about to begin!

 

 

To be continued…..

I was on one cruise where a person arrived early to reserve the entire Starboard side of the Serenity deck for his group by placing items on the loungers.  He has the only guest occupying a lounger on that side of the deck.  The deck steward made her rounds and placed paper tags with the time marked on the unoccupied loungers.  As soon as the deck steward went to the Port side of the deck, the designated chair hog removed all of the paper slips from the loungers.

I was on one cruise where a lady brought yellow caution tape and literally taped 10-12 chairs together.

Went to Cucina on the Panorama last week and had an absolute home run of a meal. Honestly, the other courses were so good I almost wish I'd skipped the appetizer to have more room (it was good just not as spectacular as the others). I had:

 

Arancini

 

chicken Parm and side of spaghetti (it doesn't come with spaghetti, you have to order as a side)

 

Chocolate biscotti dessert (comes with coffee ice cream)

 

And the buttery garlic bread they bring out at the beginning is sooooooooooo good, I'm kicking myself I didn't get a picture of it! Like I said, if I could do it again, I would either skip the appetizer or maybe get a salad to balance out everything else - and not eat that much for a few hours beforehand. For how inexpensive this place is compared to other specialty dining, it's a steal.

OMG that chicken parm looks amazing!!!

Thanks for the helpful info!  Have a feeling we wont be eating in the MDR at all this cruise lol.  Have the Steakhouse, Chefs Table, Rudi's and Teppanyaki reserved so far.  That leaves three nights lol  

when can you make reservations?  Onboard?

Love love the San Juan pics.  We were supposed to stop there but we were changed to Bahamas.  Whatever!  I'm still going to be on a cruise ship, right??

Jeff, Ive read your other reviews and loved them, but this one is special as my friend and I will be sailing on Mardi Gras in November after two years of waiting for my 60th birthday!!  Thank you for the review and thanks to Patti for her amazing pictures!  Following along....

We have a cruise booked for January 2015 and STILL can't buy excursions! I've called and been told every time that they aren't available yet...

I too, LOVE LOVE LOVE your bathing suit!!

We just got off the Paradise 2 weeks ago..nothing like being drunk in Coz!!

I dont think it's an unreasonable request-on our Imagination cruise last year we picked up a model of the ship for someone who was collecting them..

I'd help the OP out, but we'll be on the Paradise in a few months.

We do the same as most of the posters...book 6 months+ out, and then pay it off monthly..

My daughter and I are on the Imagination in May-always wanted to do a mother/daughter cruise and now we're doing it! Hope we have as fun a time as you two apparently did!
