NOOOOOOO! Not country:p. I live in country music heaven and I can't stand the stuff. Maybe I'll go pee when you start to play that!:D

[AllyCat81]

Allycat,

when are you thinking about going??

 

9/23/07 - Liberty 6 day. We're hopefully going to be booking by this Friday (payday ;) ) as long as the prices don't rocket up.

Anyone that has been on the Liberty 8-day Eastern itinerary recently....where did you dock in St. Thomas? I know they have 2 docks in St. Thomas and I am just wondering which one we will be at. Thank you!

And after your first cruise, you get a "gold" card which entitles you to the past-guest cocktail party. I guess a few free drinks are better than nothing. I didnt realize all of the perks with platinum...this is great information.

How obstructed are the views in the cat. 6B rooms at the front of the ship? There are some rooms available in the Lido, Empress, and Upper decks. I'm just curious how blocked or view will be. Also, do you feel the ship move more in the front?

 

Thanks ;-)

[Princess25]

DJ Eddy, I think you might just keep the party rocking.

Hope you enjoy your cruise. We board on 9/29 for the 8 day Western. I am so glad I booked when we did, back in Feb. The prices really jumped & haven't gone back down

the decks outside of these cabins are public- You will be keeping your curtains closed as people can see into your cabin.

(or so they say-- its like a two way mirror on the outside-)

but few people know about the access to this area--it would be like your own balcony.

 

your view will be the wall.

You want to be careful and check deck plans and look at the symbol in a cabin before you book it. SOme cabins are handicapped and the beds do NOT go together.

 

if you hit rough waters you will feel the motion no matter where you are on the ship-- more so on the front.

[AllyCat81]

Serene,

 

Thanks! I was wondering if it would be worth it to save some money and book one of those cabins as opposed to the balcony... but I didn't even realize that people would be walking by outside :eek:

 

I think we would be more comfortable in a balcony room (I was spoiled on my first cruise :o ).

 

Thanks for posting the pics! :)

[covkid]

:confused: Does anyone know who will be on the Miracle in October?

[serene56]

Sometimes booking an oceanview cabin wil save many dollars.

Depends on what is important.

 

MOST people dont know about those outsdie public areas outside the cabin. The windows are not like windows where people can actually see into them- they have like a two way mirror on them.

People will use the window to fix their hair or check their reflection- sometimes could be hilarious- since people dont know you can see them.

[AllyCat81]

Oh I know what you mean! I figured we'd save a couple of bucks and take an OV room this year. But the only ones left are at the front of the ship.

(On DBF's first cruise, his room was at the front of the ship and they got hit with a hurricane, so he's really not too keen on being in the front of the ship again lol).

 

So I think we'll pay the extra money and get the balcony. We really loved our room on the Legend.

 

Like I said... I'm spoiled now lol

Glad to be aboard both these boards and the Carnival Liberty 11/10/2007!:) Wondering if anyone has any recent capers for the eastern itinerary of the Liberty and or knows where i can find prices and times for excursions. We were thinking of going on more than one some of the days time permitting. Also has anyone done the Breezes excursion at Nassau. Thanks in advance!:D

Thanks serene56 for your help! Checked out all the excursions and many were missing, does that mean they sold out? Do they add any later, because Nassau only had 3 to choose from?:confused:

Harry's was a great experience. I've always had good meals in the dining room, but Harry's was definitely a cut above and worth the extra charge. There are items on Harry's menu that sound similar to dining room items - lobster bisque, for example - but what you get at Harry's is a very different product. I opted for filet mignon while DH went for surf and turf. There was much more food than I could possibly eat.

We went to the pay extra restaurants on both the Pride and Miracle, and we did not feel either experience was appreciably better than the regular restaurant. We will be skipping Harry's on our July Liberty cruise.

are you crusing soon?

 

here is the port of calls board- you can find vendors for cheap compared to what carnival offers

http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=5

 

most of the excursions you see online you can book on the ship- they hold some reservations for people who dont access computers.

[Prairie_Gal]

Possibly there are only three for Nassau because of the short time the ship is there. On our Dec 16 sailing we are only there from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. There are currently NO excursions listed for Nassau.

We had the lobster bisque in the Golden Fleece on the Legend last Fall and it was wonderful. Quite different from the dining room. Harry's looks to be decorated nice, you agree???
