Carnival Liberty Eastern Review with photos

[poptart]

What did you pay for the cabana? Did you ask for any money back or anything?

 

what a bummer! I would have pitched me a hissy fit. I love having my beach lounger!!

We paid $129.99 for the four of us through the excursion list on Carnival's website. I never did make it to the shore excursions desk to tell them what happened. I did write on John Heald's Facebook page today. No big deal if I don't get my money back, but at least now I've told someone of the problem.

 

Yeah, DH and I went swimming and came back and had to sit on the step of our porch. Not exactly the most comfortable! :mad:

I just got a Facebook message from John Heald:

 

I can understand just why you were upset and I am very sorry this happened. I have sent a note to the shore excursion department so they know and I have also copied the shore side management as well. Thanks then for telling me and I do hope you had fun and that we will see you again soon. cheers

I took pictures of all of my Fun Times using document mode on my camera. Not the greatest quality, but it will help you get the gist of the activities that are offered. I broke down the big list of activities into sections so I could zoom in better.

A very nice review. Really enjoyed it.

I even looked at the pics once again after reading your review...:D

Aww, thanks! I enjoyed doing it!

I forgot to mention that we were in Zone 2 for embarkation. That meant we got to board right after platinum, FTTF and Zone 1!

and great commentary!! What was that spaghetti dish? Looks like it may have had bacon in it? Looked good...and the pasta dish with mushrooms and chicken?

Great Pics!!

Fun Facts (these are from memory, so they might be slightly off!)

 

they profile us at lunch on the Lido buffet on the first day to see what we eat so they can get an idea of what we like! they also have numbers based on other cruises

 

I am really enjoying your review. We just got off the Liberty but had different ports. It was such a great ship. We didn't take as many pictures of the ship as you did so it's nice to see them. Keep it coming.

 

I'm curious about the above statement about profiling people's first food choices. We tried the fish and chips ceviche the first day for something different but then never went back. I guess we threw them off!

That was spaghetti carbonara. The chicken with pasta was simply chicken over fettucini. Both yummy! I am a chicken and pasta type of girl. :)

I think they mostly get the numbers from previous cruises. But, yeah, you probably DID throw them off! LOL! ;)

They also gave us a little pamphlet with some interesting facts and a recipe for warm chocolate melting cake on the back!

 

Here are the photos that were delivered to my room that night (they are included in the price of the tour):

 

 

 

Me and the captain!

 

 

Great review! Love the pics.

 

You're probably going to think this is a strange question but, when you were up on the bridge was there a drawing of the Liberty hanging anywhere?

 

When I was on the Liberty back in Oct 2012 I presented Captain Barrile a drawing of the Liberty for a young man from England named Harry Cotterill. Harry has drawn the Dream and Freedom and I will be delivering one of the Victory in few weeks for him. His drawings are amazing.

I didn't happen to notice, sorry! I was too busy taking in all the buttons, knobs and switches. Not to mention the amazing view! :)

First off, I think it's awesome your husband had a Red Sox shirt on almost every day!

 

Enjoyed the review. I went on my first cruise on the Glory in Jan and had three of the four ports you did (no HMC for us, we had Nassau). I enjoyed the Bushwackers in St. Thomas and the stray kitties made me miss mine. Can't wait for my Sunshine cruise next Feb!

[DOTTE]

Thanks.

 

It is an amazing view up there.

We are thinking about going on Sunshine in Feb also, which date are you looking at?
