Wrigley80's Excellent Adventure on the Dream Photo Review - December 4-15, 2014

[alwayshappytocruise]

Thank you so much. Happy to hear that you are enjoying my review. Not sure why you thought I was an EMT.....the sight of people in trouble or a crisis scare me. I am a TA so I do a lot traveling for work purposes [emoji6][emoji2] there's no better way to check out a cruise than to cruise on it yourself.

 

I have NO idea where I got that EMT idea from, I must have you mixed up with another CC reviewer! How cool it must be to be a TA and travel that much...do you ever get to go overseas?

Haha no worries [emoji2] yeah I have been overseas. I have family who live in Sweden. I was over there most recently 2 years ago. I would like to go back but I hate those long flights

Awesome sunset pics Brianna,

 

I am really enjoying your review.:)

 

Did you ever get to try those sea grapes on this trip?

Brianna,

 

I just love your reviews. Thanks for sharing them. I have one question, maybe more than one. :cool: Because of this review, we are thinking of doing Little French Key in March. How did the transportation work from the ship? Did LFK take you back to the ship? If they did, did they set up a certain time with you or do they have transportation times set up throughout the afternoon?

 

It looks so beautiful there. Also, I'm very glad everything went well with your father. :)

hi Brianna -

Just catching up, glad to hear your dad is okay!

 

Quick question - I'm sailing solo in May and want to visit Little French Key without taking a ship excursion. Assume there weren't any issues getting back to the ship on time?

 

Love me some hats - where did you get this one? :D

Well as far as transportation goes to Little French Key it was very easy. When we disembarked the ship we walked through the port area to the taxi stand area. A few people in our group knew that they couldn't walk over that hill to where the independent tour operators are so we just decided to all get in a van to take us out to meet the shuttle driver. Well our van driver from the port just kept driving and we missed finding the shuttle driver once we got over the hill but it all worked out perfectly because the driver we had took us right to Frenchys where we paid for LFK. It wasn't supposed to work out that way but it did and it was fine....no problems.

 

When we were ready to go back we just got on the boat transport from LFK back to Frenchys. Then when we got back to Frenchys there was a van waiting to take our group back to the port. The shuttle transportation is included in the cost of your package

Yeah if you want to go to Little French Key don't book it through the cruise line. Book it directly through the Little French Key website. And no there were no issues getting back to the ship in time. They will take you back to the port whenever you are ready.

 

I got this hat at a Carnival training seminar that I went to for work. This was one of our free gifts

You would like them. They are really good.[emoji106] Maybe next time. [emoji3]

OK so who is ready for some more photos. Today was our final day onboard and it is usually a sad day but we had so many fun things planned today with our KREWE that I couldn't be sad. There was no time for sadness :)

 

Earlier in the week I made a reservation for the Dr. Seuss breakfast. I made the reservation one night as we were leaving the dining room at dinner. I just had to tell the hostess how many people would be attending and our cabin number. I did this on night 3 of the cruise because I wanted to make sure that it didn't fill up.

 

The Dr. Seuss breakfast was served in the Crimson Dining Room at 9:00 am on our final day at sea.

 

 

 

 

 

A Dr. Seuss ice carving and coloring books for the kids

[wrigley80]

This was our table setting

 

 

The napkin also served as my bowtie for breakfast

 

We ate breakfast with Glo and Smokey

I am going on the Breeze in March with port stops in Grand Cayman and Cozumel. I will look for them there again. You said they are pretty sweet correct???

Our breakfast menu

 

Who wants Goose Juice???

 

The breakfast is basically the same food than what you would get at the Brunch....they just Seussified it in here. I brought the menu home with me

 

 

 

I guess I wasn't paying attention

[wrigley80]

 

WHOA....how did Bam Bam get in there

 

 

This was the Yogurt Parfait

 

The leaning tower of Froot Loops

 

There goes THING 1 and 2

[wrigley80]

Correct.

ok then I will definitely be on the look out for them in March. THANK YOU :)

[wrigley80]

 

This was another type of yogurt parfait

 

 

[wrigley80]

So when you think of Dr. Seuss....what is it that you think about??? Green Eggs and Ham....and of course it was on the menu. I ordered it and here it is

 

Does it look kinda gross??? If you can get over the fact that you're eating green eggs it would be OK. I didn't care for it :p

 

My dad ordered the pancakes. He enjoyed them

 

Glo ordered the waffles

 

 

So would you order Green Eggs and Ham???

[wrigley80]

The lower level of the dining room was totally full

 

 

 

 

[wrigley80]

Glo doing her best Beauty Pageant wave

 

I spy Bam Bam

 

Ok so my thoughts on the Dr. Seuss breakfast. I enjoyed it. It was worth the $5.00 charge per person to try everything. Even if you didn't care for the breakfast it was worth it just for the pictures. I will try it again on the Carnival Breeze in March

Hi Brianna,

 

Thank you for your help with info on LFK and our "fluffy" questions :) We did book the Full Island Tour and I talked to them and managed to get our own private table, flowers and a private bartender added to the deal - for a charge of course! We are going to love it! They are very easy to work with.

So after breakfast we headed back to the cabin to sit out on the balcony for a while and we had to get some items from the cabin for our farewell meet and greet that we would be having later on with the KREWE.

 

We walked into the cabin and this was greeting us....ugh the dreaded debarkation tags and info. Do you think if I just threw them away I could stay onboard another week???

 

It was a beautiful day to sit out and enjoy the balcony so we stayed there about an hour or so

 

The sun bunnies were out in force today

 

The Blue Iguana Tequila Bar

 

The Red Frog Rum Bar
