Rare CruisinCrow Posted September 18, 2014 #2 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Great pictures and interesting about how the Empress Deck got its name. Thanks for posting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missdebi Posted September 18, 2014 #3 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Very cool. Thanks! The pools looked larger and the description said it had 4 pools... But they probably just looked larger because the ship was smaller :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfwench Posted September 18, 2014 #4 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I loved that pictorial. Thank you for sharing. Did not know about the Empress Deck. I wonder if the same is true for Riviera as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the pictures brought back a lot of memories. I sailed her before they changed all the wood and replaced with wall paper. I remember when I first sat foot on her I thought how is thing going to float with 950 passengers.... Wow how things have changed! Thanks for sharing the link!

ljinnc Posted September 18, 2014 #6 Share Posted September 18, 2014 (edited) In Jan. 1991 I took my first cruise aboard the Mardi Gras, a 3 nighter from Port Canavral to Nassau Bahamas. I think my room was in the very belly and evidently next to the engine room, tiny little room. Small ship, rough seas = lots of sick folks.

mosel Posted September 18, 2014 #8 Share Posted September 18, 2014 We sailed the Mardi Gras. It was fun to look at the pictures and remember our first cruise. We could even pick out the table where we ate our first lunch on Lido deck! The buffet consisted of tacos and chicken wings. LOL Cindy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL Cindy LOL, but I thought Carnival food has been downgraded since those good ol' days.... at least that's what you'd think listening to all the folks on this board. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
