He looks about ready for the scooter brigade. Curious about how everybody is liking Emeril's? I know that I would love to try it.


He had to have one for the Back to back getting off and back on. He made it down like four stairs and couldn’t make it down anymore of them.

Dang it! No irons available! Thanks for the update. Will have to adjust our wardrobe options.

Hi,

 

We just got off the ship on Saturday. They do have Laundry rooms. There was one on deck 14 which was our deck (near 14-396 iirc).  They had them on at least 3 other decks as well. I think I saw decks 12 and 9 listed.

The Center stage Band has to be the best band I have heard on a Carnival Ship period. The Backyard band isn’t far behind them. 

I totally agree with you! Best I have seen in 21 cruises. We ended up spending quite a bit of time in Grand Central listening to them. The live music on MG was excellent. There had to be at least 5 different performers/groups spread out on the ship on any given evening. In addition to the two bands they had the celestial strings, a solo guitar guy, a Jazz band and a Latin band. Carnival has really upped their game in this area!

By the way Quest and Harry chest contest are permanently gone. Carnival said they were both too “Controversial”

So, Quest, an adult fun show is too controversial for the "Fun Ships"?  🤔 But 4 or 5 nights of R rated comedy is OK.  So  hypocritical.  I can see the hairy chest contest getting canned since it usually turned into a bunch of guys doing poor Chippendales impersonations poolside in front of kids.  But Quest was an adults only show done late at night and any prudes were forewarned.

uhmmmmnever heard of it or seen it myself 😁

Started many years ago on Royal.  About 8-10 co-ed teams of maybe 6 members each  compete against each other in a game combining a scavenger hunt with playful skits.

Good to hear. I suppose their utility bill check cleared, lol.

On your cruise the extension cord that went back to HQ in Miami got disconnected when somebody tripped over it going back to their cabin after imbibing to much at the Fortune Teller Bar.

Quick question, as we are on the MG in Oct. I know that there are no laundry facilities on board, as has been posted numerous times. Any idea where the ironing facilities are? We will be on deck 9.

On deck 9, it's located across from cabin 9394.  Also across from 4320, 5390, 14396 and 15393.

I plan to well okay not every night but now that I am ATD and it’s free…… 

Not free, you paid for it, but of course it is included.   As well as Cucina, Chibang and Pig & Anchor for the inaugural season.

Wow quite a dinner and it looks like this finally settles the great lobster mystery - it and only it is available at Cucina (and I assume at Chibang!) on night 2 so that YTD people won't necessarily demand to be in the Flamingo to get it.

But you still need to go to Flamingo to add the prime rib rare so you have a proper surf and turf.

Lady wanted to be the center of attention until she got destroyed for it and she I ***** you not said she was going to complain to guests services and everyone including Andy laughed at her.  

The same stuck up b**ch that got Quest banned.

Totally agree. We also really enjoyed the electric violin trio. They were awesome.

Cabin opened up?

At least you missed the humans in the hazmat suits.

 

Stay safe

You get bio bags and bags of laundry Greg is over there getting room service trays. The Mardi Gras is truly the "Fun Ship".
