Lyncoya Posted April 19, 2010 #1 Share Posted April 19, 2010 This was my husband's and I 5th cruise with Carnival. Our first 7day though. We LOVED it. Room # was 1003. It wasa handicapped room. I wasn't expecting the beds to be pushed together, but they were. Here are a few pics of the room. Our view from our "obstructed view" window. The bathroom was huge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyncoya Posted April 19, 2010 Author #4 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I know that a lot of peeps have been asking for photos of these types of rooms...here is what I have. Monday was Half Moon Cay. We were going to rent a cabana, but the weather wasn't TOO hot, so we rented some floating mats, found some chairs, and parked it for a while. This was a beautiful day. the water was a little cold at first, but it didn't take long to get used to. Sand like baby powder, ocean sooo blue. It was paradise. Here are a few pics.

Lyncoya Posted April 19, 2010 Author #5 Share Posted April 19, 2010 One of the tenders... I think this was also the day that we did the wine tasting. $10 a person. Nice experience. We were nice and buzzed at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyncoya Posted April 19, 2010 Author #7 Share Posted April 19, 2010 And here is our first towel animal. Looks a little x-rated to me. It ALWAYS has. :o Wednesday was St. Thomas...we did a tour with Godfrey tours $30.00 pp...HIGHLY recommened. I LOVED this day. He took us on a wonderful tour of the town, and then we went to Magen's Bay. BEAUTIFUL. Here are pics. :) Arriving in St Thomas. This was our view from the front of the ship, the panorama deck. We were literally 10 steps away from the secret door? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyncoya Posted April 19, 2010 Author #13 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Pool Steakhouse All in all...this was my BEST cruise yet, and I can't wait to do another 7 day. I'll have to do a 3 day in August or September to hold me over though! ;) Oh yeah...I stayed at the Marriott Biscayne Bay the night before the cruise. I won this hotel on Priceline for $55. In case anyone is interested, here are some pics... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyncoya Posted April 19, 2010 Author #16 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Here are a few obserations. The aft area is adults only. Why is the pizza back there? Kids eat pizza, therefore making this area not "adults only". I never saw any kids misbehave...just an observation. The hot tubs were nice and HOT. They were never too crowded either. The cover on the aft pool is nice. The comedy club is a must do! The burrito bar would be a lot better if the meat was HOT. :) Fish and chips were OK...the fish was a little "fishy" tasting to me, if you know what I mean. Not nasty, just maybe a little strong for my taste. The calamari was great though. Mongolian grill was delish as always. Most of the times there were lines, but nothing too horrible. My new favorite frozen drink is the Mango swirl...awesome. Get your drinks from the artrium bar. (the bar by guest relations) The bartender was soo nice, and she made the drinks stronger and bigger than any other bars for the same price. I think she thought my husband was cute. ;) Long island ice teas were nice and potent. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aunty Kay Posted April 19, 2010 #22 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Now I cant wait to go. Our cruise is only 4 nights:( but I know we will have so much fun. One of my sisters has never cruised so it will be great to show her everything. I will certainly have to try one (maybe 2) of those drinks and I will think of you. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
