Zydecocruiser's Carnival Conquest Fun Ship 2.0 Photo Review

[whendoweleave?]

Do you know it the martini tastings are still the same menu? Can you only choose those certain ones or are any from the big menu available for tasting? Some of those look amazing! :D

Where are the ping pong paddles and balls stored? Lido at the towel hut, or right there by the tables?

[KORTAM]

I was enjoying the review and picks then all of a sudden there I was standing like a lump in one of your shots. I better be carful where I stand from now on.;):D

[Almost Packed]

I agree - that is a gorgeous shot. I've seen dolphins from the ship, but usually by the time I take the picture all I get is a splash - maybe if I'm lucky, a tail fin.:o

I didn't look but they still did martini tastings. There are also some sort of private tastings at Alchemy, but not sure about those.

Ping pong, putt putt, shuffle board, all at the towel hut.

What is really amazing is seeing them from a Cove Balcony. But I have never had a camera handy. :o:(

Jogging track post-2.0

 

 

 

and pre-2.0

 

 

 

Hmmm. No difference. :D

[Sargent_Schultz]

Aft Sky Pool (unless they have the roof closed)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hmm. I thought the had changed the name, but not entirely

 

[Sargent_Schultz]

{oops - i realized the previous 3 pictures were from the previous Conquest cruise}

[Sargent_Schultz]

Okay, back to the right cruise, one afternon they had a Red Rum vs Blue Tequila competition. I have no idea who won and suspect many of the participants didn't either.

 

 

 

and the start of two conga lines

 

 

 

 

 

they went all over

 

 

 

 

[Sargent_Schultz]

Just watching wore me out. It was time for more food.

 

Pepperoni Pizza from Pizza Pirate

 

 

 

 

 

and some Prosciutto Pizza that he wind blew most of the arugula off of

 

[Sargent_Schultz]

I needed something to wash the pizza down with...

 

 

 

so decided to grab another burger from Guy's. I never saw much of a line there and if there was one, it moved quickly.

 

 

 

 

 

Burger, no cheese, onions and bbq sauce, and fries

[Sargent_Schultz]

and then it was time for the M&G.

 

Active Hotel Director Sundeep Bhatia (Food and Beverage Manager) showed up.

 

 

 

as did CD Noonan and wife

 

[Sargent_Schultz]

From there to the Hasbro Game Show which I enjoyed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Sargent_Schultz]

A gratuitous moon shot

 

 

 

and time for more food - imagine that!

 

Tonight's Taste Bar from the steakhouse

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Happy Happy Happy

 

 

 

an example of a food line - people lined up before the venue even opened

 

[Sargent_Schultz]

For the gamblers

 

 

a really good band that I hope someone verifies the name

 

 

 

another good band - Fandango Latin band

 

 

 

 

{who says they don't have live, quality music on ships these days?}

[Sargent_Schultz]

Yum, Yum, more food! First Elegant night

 

West Indian Roasted Pumpkin Soup

 

 

Greek Farmer Salad,

 

 

 

 

Tender Roasted Prime Rib of America Beef au jus

[Sargent_Schultz]

Some entertainment

 

 

and dessert Cherries Jubilee,

 

[Sargent_Schultz]

Tonight they delivered the platinum gift - it was still binoculars on this cruise, but by now should be a Carnival Tervis Tumbler. Something you can always use more than one of.

 

 

 

 

 

[Sargent_Schultz]

Whew, finally got through the first full sea day. :p

[buckirj1]

*Happy Sigh* Carnival still serves West Indies Pumpkin Soup. All is right with the world.

 

Hoping they still have the farfalle with turkey and peas in a cream sauce.
