Now we just put them on airplane mode and only use then for the Carnival Hub and taking pictured/ We are still "unplugged" for the duration of the cruise
This happened the first night of our last cruise, because the Hub app made it sound like you should request a table and one would be assigned within 10 minutes, so people came down early. But the hostess did a good job of explaining that you should request a table, and they would message you when it was ready and you then had up to 10 minutes to arrive and claim it, so the crowds thinned out after that.
I don't care for Carnival's cakes much. They look better than they taste, Last cruise they a few good alternatives, They had my favorite dessert, Bitter & Blanc, one night. Peach Pie was offered another night, and creme brulee another .
I try not to book anything that has more than 2 seadays in a row, We once had a port canceled and ended up having four seas days in a row. We managed to have a good time anyway 🙂
I am sad to see the libraries go. I read that the supposed reason is that people just aren't using them much, the real reason was revealed later in the article - they want to replace libraries with revenue-producing spaces.
I have a pair of microfiber pants that look like silk. I have no idea what brand they are, I either bought them on deep discount off season or at a thrift shop. These are my go-to for cruse elegant nights with a blingy top.
