Sargent_Schultz Posted February 14, 2010 #1 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Ok, we aren't on the ship yet, but did make it to Port Canaveral. The Radisson Resort at the Port is pretty nice. For supper had pizza from Kelsey's next door - everywhere seems busy on a Saturday night - imagine that. Click on any pictures to go to that page.

Mikel1733 Posted February 14, 2010 #4 Share Posted February 14, 2010 The Pizza looks quite tasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargent_Schultz Posted February 14, 2010 Author #5 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Thank you. The pizza was quite good; the wedding party across the hall wasn't, but closing the bedroom door took care of that. Don't forget what day it is! Our ship should be there somewhere, but I don't see it on the port camera - some garbage scow is in the way... :D http://www.portcanaveral.com/webcam.htm Oh, I found it on the Radisson's webcam http://www.opusad.com/radissonwebcam/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargent_Schultz Posted February 14, 2010 Author #6 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Trying to squeeze the last of the free Internet out... Will be adding captions and more details later, but got some pics up... Sun, Feb 14, Port Canaveral - Depart 4pm Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Embarkation was a VIP breeze, pictures not allowed, oops. Had to throw an open bottle of water that was in plain sight away, but one that was out of sight was ok. Open bottler of wine made it in carry on. As for the rest of the bar, well, it arrived too. Suitcase was locked. We have Your Time dining - not sure I'm thrilled about that, but that's what somebody else wanted. Especially after we found out Konstantin is the maitre d' in the other dining room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DGP1111 Posted February 15, 2010 #8 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa!!!! :eek: :eek: . According to the pics on page 3 of your web postings, both of the glass elevators in the atrium are working, and with actual live passengers in them. That's basically unheard of on that ship (for several years). Will be interesting to hear if that's the case for your entire 4-day sailing. Wow, both working. I'd like to see that for myself in April. Have a great cruise!!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargent_Schultz Posted February 15, 2010 Author #9 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Everything so far is working. :) Food last night was really good! Except for one requested well done chocolate melting cake that was too soupy. The lasagna, fried shrimp, pork chop, bbq ribs, all excellent. Have the Kiddie Capers up and should have the menus up tonight or tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargent_Schultz Posted February 15, 2010 Author #10 Share Posted February 15, 2010 and we are docked in Freeport. So far, the ship hasn't hit anything. I thought all of these cruises had some sort of collision guarantee. Must not be any RCCL ships in the area. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDCMN Posted February 15, 2010 #15 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Love the pictures! Thanks for sharing them! I noticed you were in a porthole cabin. My partner and I were considering one of those cabins but I wasn't sure about the motion since they're usually in the very front of the ship. Have you noticed any extra motion? How are you liking that stateroom? What deck are you on? Would you recommend this type of cabin? Sorry about all the questions but you have me totally curious now with those great cabin pictures! LOL Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL Thanks again! U18 - yes there is motion, but we love motion. Could even sometimes hear the ocean. I like the cabin. Not really related, but the water pressure is outstanding and plenty of hot water. but it isn't rough and I haven't heard of anyone getting sick. It's elegant jeans night or something like that. Also think] I will collect my free casino drink tonight - unless I decide to wait until tomorrow. No ship pins yet, though. Guess I'll have to stop in at the purser and see what's up with that.

shebring02lx Posted February 16, 2010 #20 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Lovely photos! Thanks for sharing. I have a question - where in Freeport did you go to see such beautiful scenery?

cfand3boyz Posted February 16, 2010 #21 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Thank you so much for posting the pictures. It is so helpful to see what the ship really looks like (instead of the stock photos on other sites). I'm trying to decide between the Sensation and Imagination right now.

ohyes Posted February 16, 2010 #22 Share Posted February 16, 2010 These photos are great!! Thanks for sharing all these. We were on the Sensation (out of NOLA) in 2005 - lots of memories when I look at the ship photos. :) Carry on with the fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sargent_Schultz Posted February 16, 2010 Author #24 Share Posted February 16, 2010 You're welcome 68 and light rainy in Nassau, 15 knot winds - maybe snorkel maybe "knot" In Freeport walked around the terminal area for a wile and then took a $5 taxi shuttle to Lucaya Beach or whatever it is called - the main tourist area a few miles from the port. There is shopping, a casino, restaurants, beach, etc there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargent_Schultz Posted February 16, 2010 Author #25 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Probably common knowledge, but found out Carnival Destiny was in Freeport in dry dock getting fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
