sanmarcosman Posted February 14, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 14, 2016 The new installations look good. In the Alchemy bar it appears they may have removed the TV sets that were there so watching sports in a bar may no longer be an option on Inspiration and soon the Imagination. Is that correct from what you saw of the Alchemy bar area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

need2cruisesoon Posted February 14, 2016 #10 Share Posted February 14, 2016 (edited) Jim the Man, thanks for the photos. Can you grade the ship experience overall on your cruise (food, cleanliness, cabins..)? Thinking of doing a 5 day next month. Any advice or recommendations are appreciated.

tncap Posted February 14, 2016 #11 Share Posted February 14, 2016 (edited) The TVs on the opposite walls of the bar may still be there but the TVs on the wall behind the bar are clearly missing. Interesting note. Thank you for the updates! I may do a quickie on Inspiration later this year. Edited February 14, 2016 by tncap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ship2Shore41 Posted February 14, 2016 #13 Share Posted February 14, 2016 With the warmer weather from El Nino this week, how was the weather in Catalina and Ensenada? We're on her in two weeks and kind a hope the weather stay on the warm side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romancing_the_sea Posted February 15, 2016 #14 Share Posted February 15, 2016 No the TV's on the walls are still there. Not quite the same atmosphere in the Alchemy Bar as on the Miracle - especially with TVs - yikes! Thanks so much for posting - we've been so curious!

Thanks so much for posting - we've been so curious! Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app I find it odd they have that empty space on the wall though. I wonder if they are going to be installing TV's or putting something there at a later date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmanknows Posted February 15, 2016 Author #17 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Jim the Man, thanks for the photos.Can you grade the ship experience overall on your cruise (food, cleanliness, cabins..)? Thinking of doing a 5 day next month. Any advice or recommendations are appreciated. Ship was very clean, new paint everywhere. Food was good, 2 out of 3 nights in the dining room was great, the one night it wasn't, was my fault for getting Crab ravioli. Crab was good, pasta has not so much. 4th night we ate at the chef's table, which was very good. Breakfast was in the dining room, especially liked the brunch (steak & eggs) on sea day. Cabin was fine although my DW asked for a mattress pad for the bed, as she thought it was too hard. We have done this cruise itinerary many times on a few different Carnival ships, we don't go because it's 5 star, we go because it's ridiculously reasonable. Everything was good food, service and we are close enough to drive to port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're on her in two weeks and kind a hope the weather stay on the warm side. Weather was awesome. No need for a light jacket anytime. Even smoking a cigar on deck at 10pm was t-shirt weather.

SadieN Posted February 15, 2016 #22 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Was the rotisserie still in place or is that now gone? Assuming the drink station is still outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sillyjilly Posted February 16, 2016 #24 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Do they have real tortilla chips now, or just the flour ones? Gonna pack my own for nachos if they only have the old kind. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
