Thank you so much for the wonderful review… I loved all the pictures you posted and felt like I was on the cruise (minus the hangover, I don’t know how you do it but I am truly impressed) it has been an amazing virtual cruise.  Safe travel home!  Did I mention how amazing the pictures were!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

We did experience a snafu with our room.  We were booked accidentally into the quarantine room, got moved to another room but that room came with a roommate (Nicholas the singer on the Summit) so they upgraded us to a balcony room!!!  A snafu turned into fun!!

Super impressed at how fast we got on the ship. Got to the cruise terminal at 12:15 and made it onto the ship by 12:20.  They were not checking appointment times and just waved everyone in.  Guest service said it about 520 guests onboard. Private yacht experience here we come 🤩

The table next to us (on top of us) basically have been here 35 minutes and their entrees just showed up. Problem is… they never got appetizers. The waiter takes the entrees, brings the apps and says “no worries. We will hold the entrees for you”. Are they going to just sit over there? Get cold? 🤦🏼‍♀️

Yikes … that’s rough… I hope they didn’t have to eat cold dinner… they must have been very busy tonight… the egg drop soup looks amazing!

Maybe we can meet and have a drink together!  Love meeting new people!  One more Carnival cruise after this one and we will be platinum!  The Steakhouse is amazing!  Try to book it!

 

That sounds like fun!  We would love to and congratulations on making platinum.  We got the steak house and Rudi booked for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day and I was told to book steakhouse the first night for a complimentary bottle of wine 🍷 so got all that planned… not sure where to put all the food that we have to try 😂
