  1. From Google search.

     

    The yellow bird is a fun rum cocktail that is filled with tropical fruit. While the primary recipe features orange juice, pineapple, and banana also appear in many variations on the yellow bird. It's a drink that is a hit on the beaches of the Caribbean, though you will be hard-pressed to find two yellow birds made the same way.

     

    As is common in tropical cocktails, the yellow bird uses both light rum and dark rum. A touch of Galliano (anise and vanilla liqueur) is added to bring in another layer of flavor and make things a bit more interesting. It's a fabulous flavor combination, and you'll likely enjoy every sip of it.

     

    No matter how you mix it, the yellow bird makes a great summertime cocktail.

    If you want to get on early and be part of the early group, some guy made a great video to be one of the first groups to get on, it works!

    Actually we want to board later in the day. Just not sure what the boarding times are since cruises resumed.

    Interesting that you got October 21st as your check-in date.  We are also booked on November 6th and my profile says I can't do check-in until October 23rd.  

     

    Did you see that the itinerary changed and the stops are reversed?  I haven't received an email from Carnival about it yet, but it's definitely showing up online.  And they've pulled all of the shore excursions for now.  I expected the change because of the propulsion issue, but figured they would send an email and get the shore excursions rescheduled before making the change online.  It's frustrating.  

    Thanks, Had not noticed the change. Nothing planned yet, so not a problem for us.

  4. If this did not impact so many people you could laugh at this. Over the past 10 years or so it has been Carnival's M O to announce an up-coming announcement only to put it off several rimes before the announcement is finally made, It's a no brainer for April cruises, just cancel them . Then work out the rest of the year. 

  5. Well, we did the 2/23/18 Sunshine cruise. Ports were Grand Turk, San Juan, St Kitts and St Maarten. Had great weather at all ports. It was a little rough Leaving Canaveral the first night. We had one of the inside cabins, deck 5 aft. Could feel vibrations on most nights, not enough to bother us. Loved the location of the cabin. We thought the food was better than our last cruise on Princess. Lot's of places to eat lunch. This was a premier casino cruise and the casino was really crowded on most sea days and nights. Our FB group did hit $2500 on a slot pull, think we ended up getting around $60 on a $20 dollar buy in. Had fixed early dining. Had a great team serving us. My biggest complaint is it takes time to get a drink at most bars. Not enough bar staff. Overall we had a great cruise. We have been to all ports before so only did one tour. Did a bar hop tour in St Kitts. Only 8 of us, had a really great time. St Maarten is still recovering from the storm damage. Still lot's of damaged buildings, boats sunk in the bays, road damage etc.

  6. When we were on the Vista in Feb, they were very strict about who was allowed to the Havana pool area. There was always someone posted by the entrance. Saw a few people sneak in and they were asked to leave within 5 min or so. They give you stretch wrist bands for access to Havana pool area.

     

    The Havana balcony cabins on deck 5 have a semi private walkway between your balcony and the edge of the ship. There are Havana aft balcony's on deck 6 and I think 7.

     

    Everyone is allowed in Havana pool at night.
