Thanks for all the responses. I really enjoyed reading them!
Sorry to just reply, but I’ve had a bit of real world stuff going on.
Anyway! I made it on the cruise. It helped that I had the photo of my ID that I printed out and I also showed her clearer version on my phone. I was super nervous, but she was super nice!!
Had a great time, but I don’t know if I will cruise Carnival again. The crew and especially the cruise director were awesome. The food was decent, and our room was clean and cozy. It was the passengers who left a lot to be desired.
We saw a physical fight between two women one day. That was crazy. One night around 3am, we were woken up by two people screaming at each other. Another night, a lady wore her Carnival robe with a shower cap to the Atrium bar. I can’t make this stuff up, people.
Maybe that can happen on any cruise, but I’ve got two cruises planned for RCL and one for NCL so that I can try something different. I hope the passenger experience is better.
I’m really excited about my NCL cruise because it’s the first time I’m going to cruise alone. I’m staying in one of their studio staterooms and I’m hoping to meet some nice people.
Oh, and of course my new drivers license was here waiting when I got back! I’m still planning on getting a passport, though.
