Rare Jamman54 Posted June 5, 2018 Author #585 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Patti has made it back. It has turned into a beautiful day…… It is now after 1pm, so Patti makes her way over to the Island BBQ which is serving from Noon to 2pm today. I decide that I want to try the Lobster Shack, so I make my way over there only to find that it had closed at 1pm. Bummer! We spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing in and out of the water. Around 4:15pm we decide to walk back to the tender landing area. We hadn’t traveled 50 feet when a shuttle came by and stopped to pick us up. Perfect timing! We stopped at Rumrunners to wait for the last tender……. When the crew leaves the Rumrunner, we know it’s time to go. We are now on the upper level of the tender, and we watch the crew load up…… Here is a shot of the Conquest as we wait for the tender to leave…… To be continued…..

grandmarnnurse Posted June 5, 2018 #591 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I just love your review! I can’t get enough! It makes me so excited for my two upcoming cruises, but they seem so far away—-March 2019 (Breeze) and April 2020 (Magic and for my 50th Anniversary) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammee Posted June 6, 2018 #592 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Well, you've done it again. Not only do you have me wanting to book another one (just did May 13 on Pride), but the memories came rushing back with our Florida Road Trips. We do the same drive through the night to beat that Baltimore DC traffic. We haven't been to Universal since the Spring before Potter opened. But I do remember that Citiwalk and the boat ride from the hotel. My husband is going to see your review in hopes of doing something out of Tampa. You are the "bestest" at these reviews. Keep 'em coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep 'em coming. I agree! It was Jamman’s great reviews of all his Carnival cruises that encouraged us to come back to Carnival after sailing RCCL and NCL ships. We had not cruised with Carnival since 2007, but have booked the Breeze and Magic! LOVE Jamman reviews! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiser20145 Posted June 6, 2018 #598 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Hey Jeff! I'm really enjoying your review! I am looking at either the Paradise or Conquest for next Spring (same itineraries), so it's really insightful! If you could only have chosen one of the cruises, which would you have chosen? Thanks!

Glad you are enjoying the review! For this trip, for us, because we were cruising with good friends we would have chosen the Paradise. If it were just the two of us we would have chosen the Conquest. Has nothing to do with the ships since we liked both of them, but 6 days is better than 5 days, And Amber Cove, Grand Turk, Half Moon Cay trumps Grand Cayman and Cozumel. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamecock1216 Posted June 7, 2018 #600 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Loving the review! I just want to tell you how grateful I am for your reviews, we are semi-rookies at cruising and are leaving Saturday on the Magic with the whole family in tow. Your reviews and Patti's wonderful pictures have really given me lots of knowledge and things to look forward to. My husband & I will drink a Thirsty Frog Red in your honor!
