Live from the Legend 1/5/20

[SMSACE6]

re the new dining times.  I still prefer early, or your time dining, but if I ever get stuck with late dining, 7.45 would not be the end of the world LoL.  even the 30 mins, makes it more workable for me.  Enjoying your review.  Loving the photos of places I have been, though not in a few years now.  Hope you and yours are enjoying your cruise.

Well, the cabin steward probably found it after we left and kept it anyway. Sorry man.... it was kind of special. 😉

Thanks for thought Joe!

So another new thing for us on this shop where the oriental Station on Lido had a seafood zone (might be screwing up the name) they have much of the same things as the sea food shack.

Are the new dining times fleet wide or just the Legend and/or select few ships?  Our cruise says 6 online for next month but 5:30 is way too early.  Considering YTD if its on our ship as well.

I wish more cruisers were like you Jimbo. 36 Carnival cruises and can still enjoy himself without complaining about XYZ

Hi Jimbo5544 - Your cruise posts and photos are fantastic and fun!   I'm considering the Legend for a transatlantic in 2021 and have a question about promenade and other walking decks.  The deck plans show the promenade ending near the bow of the ship so it's not a true wraparound deck.  Then there's Deck 10 that looks like you can walk all the way around, though is uncovered.  Is this correct?  My main exercise on ships is walking so I'd appreciate your firsthand comments.  Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words.  Your assessment of the two walking areas is right on.  The true running deck is small but forward .   The floor below will give you a much greater area to walk.

Wow, thanks.  I do still get the rush when we walk on a carnival ship.

Not sure, seemed like old menu to me.  Spice rubbed ribeye.

So lets talk about the weather.  The seas have cooperated but less so with the weather.   We have had sun then clouds then spitting rain then sun in all ports so far except Cozumel. We will see what Grand Cayman brings today.

I hope you've had a great day in Grand Cayman so far!

Best day weather wise of the trip

[jimbo5544]

Even though it was late, I did get a sunset pic the previous night.  

[jimbo5544]

As we pulled away on our tender I got some pics of the Legend

[jimbo5544]

And even further away I saw we had 2 neighbors Celebrity Edge and Costa Luminosa.  

[jimbo5544]

Had to make the mandatory stop at Margaritaville

[jimbo5544]

Some shots I took as we made our way back to the ship

[jimbo5544]

The edge is pretty funky looking with that bow and the elevator bar
