  1. Have very fond memories of the Veracruz. When I was a kid we used to picnic down at the Cape Cod Canal every other Sunday night and watch the Veracruz sail through. Capt. Neary, a former pilot of the Cape Cod Canal, brought me to sail through the canal a couple of times with him and I was so excited to meet the captain (Capt. Larsen) and the CD (Cliff Nelson). When I was a kid I loved watching the "Love Boat" and dreamed of working on a ship someday. In 1986 my family took a cruise out of Tampa on the Veracruz the week after the Challenger explosion. I remember it was the best family vacation ever and I was the only one in my 6th grade class who had ever been on a cruise. The cabin was so small and there were 4 of us in it. Since then I have been on almost 30 cruises but still remember the Veracruz fondly.

  2. Hey!

     

    Trying to complete my set for the Carnival ships I've sailed on. Still need pins from the Celebration, Fantasy, and Fascination. Willing to buy if anyone has any extras. Please let me know.
