Rare Jamman54 Posted February 2 Author #151 Share Posted February 2 Once through security you are given a boarding placard. Ours was Priority “A”. You then entered the Captain’s Lounge which is sectioned off for Diamonds, Platinum, and Suites. We are seated by 9:30am….. We have our first Tribe sighting! In the Tribe t-shirt is Heather (SenatorsFan), and to her right, her husband Peter. To her left is Vic (Roscoe13), who is with his wife Donna. She’s camera shy, so we have to respect that. I will say that she is a very pretty lady, and that Vic and I have definitely married up! Lol. Jim is displaying their Priority “A” placard…… While we were waiting Patti and I had our Embarkation Photo taken….. Barbie and Ken are sailing with us this week….. Sid joins us in the Captain’s Lounge. This is his first cruise as a Platinum member. Welcome to royalty Sid! He’s sporting a Priority “Q” placard, but in reality he’ll be boarding only minutes after us. Don’t know why we didn’t get a picture, but that will be rectified shortly. At 10:45am boarding begins. We're the first group to board. We’re through the facial recognition scans and heading up the gangway behind Pat & Jim….. We are now aboard the Carnival Celebration!

It’s nice to put a face to the name. 23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jamman54 Posted February 2 Author #155 Share Posted February 2 Now that we are on board, here are today’s Fun Times….. Our plan now is to check-in at our muster station (C7), drop off our carry-on bags at our cabin, and then head back to Big Chicken and the Tides Bar. Pat & Jim would do the same and meet us back there. Patti and I have grabbed our lunch….. It wasn’t very long before Megan (MeganGC1983), and Brian (Mr. Megan), joined us….. Patti is having her very first Cheers drink….. Sid (sid_9169) joined us, and soon the first “bar” picture of the cruise was taken. That’s Sid, me, Megan, Jim, & Pat..…. Jim is keeping track of Patti’s drinks for “Cheers” purposes….. Patti heads up to Deck 17 aft to begin her picture tour. The rest of us move over to the Red Frog Tiki Bar to continue our drinking. Here are the Grandeur OTS and the Scarlet Lady….. To be continued….. 35 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Greenpea2 Posted February 2 #175 Share Posted February 2 Since you post all the pics after the cruise, I am impressed that Patti can remember what/where everything is in her photos! I'd be sooo bad at that. Does she keep notes somewhere? How does she do it! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
