Onto Freedom now there is a new Dreams studio location in the atrium just off to the side.

 

 

The location on deck 4 in the old internet cafe was still there, but I guess this is more visible.

 

@Blackjackboss this one's for you.

 

 

I almost didn't photograph the giant Lady Liberty.

 

 

I also never went up to the BBQ place. It was so terrible in January that I just didn't care to try it again when the rest of the food onboard was so much better overall.

 

As a revenue generator, I was surprised the PYOB was not fixed in dry dock.

 

 

 

Wow that is a lot of Haribo lol. Those fruit sculptures are amazing.

Table ready at 639.

 

Very glad to see this menu. It's the extra we didn't have on the 13 day and was my favorite of the extra menus we had last year.

 

 

 

Why

I took it easy tonight. Went a little too hard last night so just relaxed in the room after dinner.

 

The weather improved this afternoon but is getting quite rocky again. Heard a loud crash so peaked out in the hall and some ceiling panels have fallen onto the floor. Glad nobody was walking under them when that happened.

 

I'm going to bed night, night all see you from Bermuda, or a day at sea.

Oh my

Love the pumpkin carvings.

 

 

 

 

 

Wow those are really cute. I don’t remember so much stuff being Halloween themed on the last Halloween cruise. Makes me want to carve a pumpkin. It probably won’t come out like those though lol

I think it's the other way round, MSC Divina is due in Malaga tomorrow so the excursion would be from Spain to Gibraltar. 

And not available for UK passport holders either. 

Hope you can find another option in Malaga @Blackjackboss.

Yes that is correct. Sorry didn’t mention that part. Malaga to Gibraltar booked through MSC. 

I’m due in Gibraltar tomorrow. Everything I read says the same thing. I can’t find any information saying otherwise. It sounds VERY strange to me. I can see if maybe whole excursion was canceled but other nationality passports are still going. They said policy was updated July 2023. If that’s the case why could I book it and why hasn’t website been updated? Also why was I informed the day before??? Many people on board having the  same issue of course

Just found out Gibraltar is canceled for American Visa holders. I’m soooooo disappointed. Lost it then got it again now canceled???? Other nationalities can still go. I looked at Gibraltar government website and it says US allowed and don’t even need visa. Cruise excursion desk says the government website isn’t updated??? Do you know why?? Enquiring minds want to know. Find out for me please. They wouldn’t give us any reason and I can’t find anything on line. We were notified 1 day before the excursion and now everything is sold out except for one tour. Guess that’s what we are going to do but I’m very sad.

Not visa I mean passport

I'm taking inventory of what's left. I think at this point I can hold off until I'm back on Carnival. I am happy now that I over packed.

 

Less happy when I'm lugging it around 😀

80 euros for 40 pieces of Laundry. I thought we got it free but no we don’t. I only packed for 7 or 8 days because I thought we would have free laundry lol. Spending more on laundry than in the casino

All these menus and food photos make me want to book a Cunard ship. It's going to have to wait. I'm paying on two bucket-list cruises now and those have priority.

What are the 2 cruises???

The best view of Naples were from the ship where you couldn't see the city wide landfill.

 

 

 

Costa Toscana docked next to us.

 

I told you you should have gone to Capri

Went back and forth in my head. Buffet or dining room. Buffet had poke bowls and was quicker. But dining room won out, lots of great choices today. 

 

 

 

 

Lido menu.

 

 

Oooh I love Greek salad

Welcome home! So you see it too? Much younger crowd relatively speaking and even a small handful of kids.

 

Went straight to duty free and straight back didn't need to clear security either way. 

 

Disappointed with the selection and prices debating if I want to grab anything. 

In B they had really cute souvenirs I thought. Didn’t look at the prices. Going to get something on the way back maybe

The skies looking more friendly in this direction.

 

 

My mom found one item to purchase for a friend back home but that was the extent of her find. She did not go up to street level so this was all she saw. She was not pleased with this port. There is so much more to see and do than this but this was as far as she could venture today before her back started hurting her.

Was it for me???
