vivavegas Posted March 23, 2012 #176 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Your photos of the ports are outstanding! Looks like you're having a great time. What type of camera are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stacycakes1 Posted March 23, 2012 Author #177 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Absoluetly breathtaking!!!!!! After Positano we got back in the car and Diego whisked us away to Amalfi. All of the villages together, including Positano, make up the Amalfi Coast line and Amalfi is the main village. Paul and I decided to go down to the Mediterranean for this stop and put our feet in and relax a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the Nikkon Cool Pix! (I think Ashton Kutcher does the commercials for it) Paul says it's his great eye though that makes the pictures so great (lol).

CurlyCali8 Posted March 24, 2012 #179 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Thank you for this wonderful review...gorgeous photos. We haven't made it onto our first cruise yet, but you have me dreaming. :p I've never been to Europe but have always wanted to...never thought seeing it via a cruise ship would be the way to do it, but seriously re-thinking that! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I bought spices from that same produce stand. The size of those lemons - OMGoodness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stacycakes1 Posted March 24, 2012 Author #181 Share Posted March 24, 2012 After Amalfi it was time to head home. The boys broke open the limoncello Diego had gotten us and bewteen that and our long amazinf day I was out like a light! When we got back to the ship we sat out on the balcony for a bit. Here is a shot of our view and the only time we got a look at Naples... We were both SOOOO exausted by this day that dinner was taken on the Lido deck and then we went to the spa to relax in the hot tub and then back to the room to shower and go to bed super early. We felt bad that we really hadn't done much on the ship so far but couldn't help take advantage of the ports becaus ethey were once in a lifetime. I know some of you are disappointed in the lack of ship stuff but it really is a whole different type of cruise when doing an itinerary like this. On other cruises we had so much more time to explore the ship and take naps and try out all of the stuff they offer. This truly is a real account of what we experinced and I hope that is okay. I do promise once again to get to some more Magic stuff on our sea day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slm0285 Posted March 24, 2012 #182 Share Posted March 24, 2012 (edited) I am loving it the way it is! Your days seem so busy, I don't see how you would have had time for the ship at all! I have read so many reviews and seen pics of the Magic in the Caribbean. This is a nice change. Keep the posts coming! I slacked at work today trying to keep up with all your posts. Kept going back to see more! 2/20/2011 Carnival Conquest, Western Caribbean 9/30/2012 Carnival Magic, Western Caribbean Edited March 24, 2012 by slm0285 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacepotatoes Posted March 24, 2012 #183 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Amazing review and pictures! Wow! I won't lie, I'm totally jealous. DH and I would LOVE to do this one day. Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oklahomaeande Posted March 24, 2012 #184 Share Posted March 24, 2012 How bout some pics of the pool?!? Or the Spa?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTravelista Posted March 24, 2012 #185 Share Posted March 24, 2012 (edited) I honestly couldn't care less about pictures of the ship. If they come great, if they don't, that's great too. There are pictures of the Magic all over CC. ZydecoCruiser.net has pictures of every single nook, cranny, spa and pool on the ship. This review is special. I've yet to see a review of the European itinerary quite like this. I've barely seen a European review period! Your photos are beautiful, I love your style of writing and am thoroughly enjoying your review the way it. Thanks for taking the time to do this and PLEASE, don't feel compelled to change anything.

Cashya Posted March 24, 2012 #186 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Love your review! Sorrento looks exactly the way I remember it, I was there 12 years ago in my senior year. Would love to see it again. Your pictures are amazing, hope when we are on the breeze in June we can take some like yours, at least we have a cool pix too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stacycakes1 Posted March 24, 2012 Author #190 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I know I keep saying it but thank you to everyone for all of the wonderful comments! I definitely don't plan on changing a thing. I really don't have that many pictures of the ship to change it even if I wanted to (and yes, if you want to see more of the ship zydocruiser has SO MANY great pics of everything to help you out). I do plan on writing more about what my DH and I thought about the Magic when I get to the part where we actually spent some time on it. I hope that is enough for those of you looking for more on the Magic. Like I said before, this is a very different type of cruise comparatively and I am posting it how it happened for those who plan on taking this adventure this upcoming year on the breeze. This is truly a review of our trip and not just a ship review. Once again sorry to those expecting something different! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

browneyedwoman Posted March 25, 2012 #200 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Thank you for posting your review. It brought back some great memories from a land trip to Italy that we took back in 1999. I loved your pictures. We visited Rome, Florence and Venice. The Vatican ceilings really impressed me too. Your picture of the hall of maps is great. I've tried to get my husband to agree to have our dining room ceiling in a similar fashion painted but he just shook his head at me. I also really enjoyed seeing the Trevi fountain and making a wish. We ate some gelato from a shop that was on the right side of the Trevi if you are standing looking at it. Their pistachio gelato was the best we had in Italy. We ate at a restaurant near the middle of the Spanish steps. It was a fun trip. Thanks for helping me re-live it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
