BeansoBob Posted January 11, 2009 #1 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I just finished a 5 Day Baja cruise out of San Diego. The Embarkation and the Deembarkation was super quick. About getting deembarkation, they do groups by deck. If you are on Riviera you will be dead last. Suggestion, even if you don't have to fly somewheres maybe tell the Information Desk that and they will give you a higher number. The activities are quite fun. My Dad and I went on the Whale Watching out of Cabo and had a blast cause there were tons on whales. The Fox studios tour is fun, because it is more hands on then Universal Studios. The food is fine for cruise food. The service after Day 1 gets more personalized, because Dinning Staff learns names. Also, make sure that before you go that you specify which dinner time you want when you book, because the M'trede did not seem to want to help lots of people to change. The shows were almost as good or better then Vegas style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeansoBob Posted January 12, 2009 Author #2 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I forgot, late at night in the Romeo and Juliet Lounge there is an awsome band to go listen to. They are a bunch of Asian guys that sing awsome rock music. Listening to them can often last late into the night after the last show for the late night seating.

SDJen Posted January 12, 2009 #4 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Thanks for the info - I am sailing on the Elation in less than 2 weeks! Can I ask you a question about the whale watching excursion? How big was the boat? Were there drinks, food and restrooms on board? I have no idea what to expect. How was the weather?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeansoBob Posted January 13, 2009 Author #7 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I booked it with Carnival, we did it onboard. It cost $99 per person. It was on a small inflatible zodiac boat. It was 2.5 hours and no there are no ammanties on board accept for if I remember right a drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeansoBob Posted January 13, 2009 Author #8 Share Posted January 13, 2009 It was in the mid 80 F and partly cloudly. Ohh if you get sea sick grab some motion sickness medication from the Information Desk either that morning or the evening before. I get sea sick and I was glad since some people on the tour got sick.

BeansoBob Posted January 14, 2009 Author #9 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Just to warn you guys, the tour that went out earlier in the day only saw a couple of whales. So, I bet we were quite lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
