nolaAlive Posted August 17, 2008 #27 Share Posted August 17, 2008 where do you get your information from? Many sources. Dumpster diving is amazingly effective. However, here is one source for the two ships in New Orleans "theory" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetskier Posted August 17, 2008 #28 Share Posted August 17, 2008 The turning basin in Mobile is 1000'. The Triumph is 893'. So it is capable of being turned in the basin. The Fantasy is 855'. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myangel Posted August 17, 2008 #29 Share Posted August 17, 2008 my PVP told me yesterday that it was the Triumph, but we'll wait and see....:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firefly333 Posted August 17, 2008 #32 Share Posted August 17, 2008 my PVP told me yesterday that it was the Triumph, but we'll wait and see....:) .... and other PVPs are saying Triumph to New Orleans. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traveler353 Posted August 17, 2008 #33 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Are you speaking of Moi? I will be back to post I told you so. Or not (if something changed in the past week or so). Believe me nothing personel, Just overall speculation. I am not saying that anyone is right or wrong. So no reason to tell me "I told you so". I hope that Carnival stays in NOLA. I have a gagle of relatives in that wonderful town and use every excuse that I can come up with to run over for a day or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Wow! That's pretty dang close! I wonder if the terminal can handle a passenger load of that size, including parking. Maybe they are expanding. I personally hope it is the Triumph. I would love to see a 7 day that included Grand Turk. Or a 5 day to Coasta Mayo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckycruzer Posted August 17, 2008 #35 Share Posted August 17, 2008 why does anyone think it will be a 7 day-er..My guess that whatever name she is, it will resume the Holiday sched..5-5-4 5-5-4..Seem this tends to work for them..and there are the geographic demographics to be considered..IE:, another port close enuff to do...maybe in the future? and all the itens already set for probly 2-3 yrs in advance..jm2cw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they are expanding. I personally hope it is the Triumph. I would love to see a 7 day that included Grand Turk. Or a 5 day to Coasta Mayo. The terminal at Mobile would not have enough parking for just the Fantasy by herself. Double occupancy is 2056. The Triumph has 2758 at double occupancy. Parking capacity is 500 vehicles. The terminal can handle the passenger loading but not the vehicles. FYI double capacity of the Holiday is 1452. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chigirlcruzin Posted August 17, 2008 #47 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Check out John Heald's blog. He says that the Fantasy is going to Mobile in the fall of 2009. Doesn't saying anything about NOLA, but says he believes people will be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetskier Posted August 17, 2008 #48 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Yeah, where do I get some 'old sober' when I come down for Bloggers2? Ya-ka-mein (Old Sober) 4 to 5 pounds boneless chuck, eye of round or brisket (or 2 to 3 pounds other cooked meat, such as shrimp, chicken, ham, etc.) Dry seasoning mix such as Season-All or Tony Chachere's 2 (16-ounce) packages spaghetti 2 to 3 bunches green onions 6 hard-boiled eggs 1 small bottle soy sauce Optional garnishes: Soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, ketchup In a large pot, cover roast with water and add Season-All or Tony's. Simmer until done. Reserve stock juice. Set meat aside and let cool. Skim grease off stock juice and set aside. Shred or chop meat to a fine dice (or use food processor). Chop green onions fine. Peel eggs, and cut in half. Cook spaghetti according to package directions; drain and keep hot. Mix stock juice with soy sauce. (Other seasonings of choice may be added to stock at this point, if you wish.) To serve, ladle spaghetti into a bowl. Top with meat, then onion, and half an egg. Ladle some juice over the top. Diners may add hot sauce, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce or ketchup, as desired. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
