Live B2B2B2B Carnival Spirit Alaska/Panama Canal/Caribbean

[jam19872016]

Tonight I ordered the spring rolls and bbq pulled pork slider for my starters.

 

 

 

I also got an appetizer portion of the baked ziti.

 

 

I didn't care for this and I'm glad I changed my order to the half portion.

 

For my main I ordered the weiner snitzel.

 

 

This was my favorite dishes last week. Just ok today.

 

Dessert finished off the meal strong with the chocolate panna cotta.

Love escargot! Just sayin'

I do too. I allllmost ordered that.

 

On royal it's on the everyday menu and I paired it with another everyday item. Don't laugh or make a face till you try this combo.....spaghetti bolognese. Don't know what made me do it but I liked it yum 😋

[jam19872016]

After dinner I was treated to a sunset in the distance.

 

 

 

Now we are back in the room for the evening. There is a deck party tonight I mayyyy go back out just to watch we'll see

Sounds interesting!😉

[jam19872016]

All this taking it easy I've been doing I'm not really tired tonight. Gonna head back out and maybe have a drink or two and see if I can't wind down.

[jam19872016]

Security walking down the hallway when I stepped out of my room. It's a rough crowd on these 16 day cruises 😆

[jam19872016]

Cucumber Sunrise from Alchemy and then off to the nightclub to see how lit the clun gets on a 16 day cruise 🤪

 

[jam19872016]

Double fisting it before Alchemy closed.

Club was worse than I expected from this crowd. Last call just happened....its 1224. It could have been 30 minutes ago and the dj isn't making it any better. Lights just came on at 1225. I didn't need to double fist some Alchemy drinks afterall o well. Wrong crowd for nightlife for sure lol.

[jam19872016]

Amd because I always look for the positive....this is the pizza line at 12:35 am.

 

Exactly one person.

 

 

[jam19872016]

Walked around for a little while on the outside decks and played a solo game of mini golf. It started to lightly rain bit three cucumber sunrises back to back meant I didn't mind.

 

Whale tail at night.

 

 

For whatever reason I thought now was a good time to use my free play. The casino was quiet but again three cucumber sunrises....I made a $20 mistake on my free play because because wasn't paying attention. Ended up with nothing.

 

Gonna lay down now and get some rest.

 

One more sea day until our first port of call.

Love reading your review!  I will be on the Spirit for 23 days in April/May 

doing a b2b of the Panama Canal transit and Alaska.

Thanks for taking the time to write your report.

[jam19872016]

Finally rolling out of bed. Didn't have the great night's sleep I did the night before.

 

I wonder why? 🤔

Your very welcome, thanks for reading along.

 

Enjoy your trip. I don't think it's realistic but  I'm considering the Panama Canal crossing in April again if I can get a great rate.

Three cucumber sunrises?

You may be right. 

[jam19872016]

I remember when we were traveling to Alaska I had to move my walk from the jogging track down to the outside Promenade deck because it was too cold and windy up there.

 

The last two days have been warm ad we sailed by southern California and Northern Mexico. Today it is hot 🔥. 

 

Broke a sweat for the first time which is probably more effective but I may have to push my walks to after sunset.

Very much enjoying your review! I haven’t sailed on Carnival since 2008 or cruised since COVID hit. My group will sail on Spirit in January. 

[jam19872016]

Off to lunch in the MDR.

[jam19872016]

I will of course have lunch pictures later but now I'm racing off to the theater for Playlist Q & A.

[jam19872016]

Internet has been pretty good even in Alaska bit it has had intermittent outages. It's been down the last couple hours.

 

Lunch menu today.

 

 

 

I ordered the fish sandwich and the pork chop.

 

 

 

The fish sandwich was good but I kept comparing it to the seafood sandwich royal served for lunch and nothing can live up to that. 

 

The pork chop was just ok.

 

For dessert I got the brownie tart.

 

 

Dessert was also just ok.

 

Not the best meal I've had this trip. It wasn't bad it just didn't really stand out as anything special. Still enjoying the food overall.

Thanks for reading along 😀.  Enjoy your trip and remember things will be different than they were in 2008.

Thanks for the live.  We sail on her in April 2023, Miami to Seattle. So hoping  for the old locks for the canal.  

Could I see a picture  of the soap and shampoo  dispenser  in the cabin bathroom.   Want to make sure there is both.  

[jam19872016]

For this cruise we are using the old locks. I will get a picture of the dispensers for you.

[jam19872016]

Dinner reservations were quick tonight. Didn't even get my shoes on and I had my table. New menu tonight...sort of.
