If it were our choice, we would go with an Aft balcony as long as it’s in the budget and has cabins above and below. Enjoy…no matter what you choose!

Congratulations! What about a surprise scavenger hunt throughout your cabin to find a thoughtful gift? Doesn’t have to be super long or complicated. I enjoy the scavenger hunts that DH has set up for me over the years since our 1st anniversary. Sometimes the gift 🎁 is just as simple as face sheet masks and peppermint shower steamers, which I LOVE! Sometimes it’s a bag full of my favorite skeins of yarn. And sometimes the gift is a CRUISE! 🛳️ 🥰 If your spouse will not enjoy the hunt, then feel free to skip this post right on by.😂 I’m positive others will post great ideas you can utilize. Happy Anniversary!

They really should name it that!🤣 That ramp is no joke.

Then, I’ll be back on Wednesday to continue reading! 😂 Great review so far. Your writing style feels like I’m going journey - a buckle your seat belt real tight, get your snacks ready, turn by turn, kinda journey. Thanks!

We have been on several sailings since the restart, without ever feeling sick with symptoms or testing positive. In fact we never got Covid since it the pandemic began. Maybe we dodged it because we have been working from home for years? Idk. Well that streak ended after our last sailing. DH tested positive for the 1st time ever after we got home from Panorama’s January 6-day sailing. I tested positive for the 1st time ever, 2 days later. He only had a headache, whereas my symptoms were worse: fever, aches, congestion etc. But the reality is, the possibility of getting Covid won’t stop us from sailing or engaging in other activities.

We were on Panorama in January with a TBA/GTY balcony. That’s all we could afford to book at the time. We were assigned a cabin somewhere between 36-48 hrs prior to sailing. It was a mid-ship balcony on the 7th floor. That was a surprise. We fully expected to be in a broom closet with a Juliet balcony 🤣🤣🤣

The first time we received an upgrade/upsell offer was for our last sailing. Prior to that, I did not know what to look for either. I found this video helpful.

Following…well, because it’s Antartica! C’mon! It’s on the bucket list! ☺️

For us, we notice several offers for our last sailing. The Carnival cruise manager showed multiple, refreshed offers in the weeks leading up to the cruise. But we only received one offer via email. We checked emails and the cruise manager almost daily, because we booked a GTY/TBA balcony cabin to see when a room was assigned to us.

We just got off of Panorama on Saturday and saw our cruise history was updated today (Monday). For us In the past, it took somewhere between to 5-7 business days to show up on our cruise history.

Our gty balcony cabin was assigned 36 hours prior to sailing on Panorama. We purchased the trip through Carnival’s website, 10 weeks prior to sailing. We didn’t get an email. I also kept stalking our cruise manager until it showed.

We owned a Jeep over 10 years. I never knew about the duck thing. Haha I guess our Jeep wasn’t tricked out enough. 😂

Home sweet home. I just love that NYC skyline view! 🏙️

We are in Club 23. 🛳️ Close enough to feel excited, and yet too far away to pack. 😏
