I'd love to see copy of FunTimes as well!  We are doing the same trip in July!  Glad to hear you had a good cruise!

Looking to see if it was liquor.

 Just curious ... how can they tell the difference in a wine bottle?

We will be on the Sunshine for our 2nd sailing this July.  We can't wait!  We loved it!  We did not notice the smell of smoke anywhere but the casino.  The comedy club was a little hard to get in to see a show ....you just have to be willing to go a little early and stand in line.  We love the Serenity deck!  We actually loved that it was near the lido deck!  We were able to get a chair on the glass wall and watch the "fun" of the lido deck - without having to be in the middle of the madness! lol Yes, you can hear it - but not at the volume that is on lido!  In fact, this is why we have booked the Sunshine again!  We are taking our adult children this time, and cannot wait to share the Sunshine with them!  Enjoy!

This is the "dance floor" that you will be over.  I would definitely be concerned if my cabin was over the Liquid Lounge, but this was not a very loud area of the ship, in my opinion.

Last time I was on the Sunshine was 2015.  The "dance floor" that you see on Deck 5 did not get really rowdy or loud when we were there.  It was a live singer playing on a simple stage.  The Alchemy Bar is right next to it.  There were several tables.  My husband and I sat and watched the singer for a bit, and had a drink from the Alchemy.  We were able to talk and enjoy the company.  It wasn't a really loud area in my opinion.  

My daughter is 24 and just signed up to get points to purchase gift cards for her cruise!  😉

They are out of the $500 cards.  Does anyone know how often they run out, and how frequently they replenish them?  

Do you know if you can get a 1 day pass to the thermal suite on the ship?  I don't think I want a pass for the entire length of the cruise, but I'd like to try it for a day?

Thanks!  I'm getting Cheers, so this will be nice to make a check list of must haves!  

I notice there is shipping.  Is the shipping a percentage of the cards, or per card?  They only have $100 cards now, so I'm wondering if I should wait until they have the $500 cards?  I don't sail until July, so I've got some time, but I thought I could start purchasing some each week/month.

This sounds like a great topic!  We were on the Sunshine in 2015, and we will return in July!  I can't wait!  We'll be getting Cheers! this time (for the first time) so I'm also interested in drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) that might make this trip special!

We ate at JiJi's last time.  I got a little seasick that night, but it was still amazing!  

I was hoping we would have Mikey on the Sunshine in July, but it looks like he is leaving end of May.  Anyone know anything about Adam Cornes?

Sunshine has the BEST serenity area!  A small pool with a waterfall, a great bar,  amazing seating options .... quiet & remote, or quiet with a view of Lido deck!  This is why we have booked the Sunshine again!  ❤️

I just booked 3 cabins on Sunshine for July 8, all on Deck 8.  I called Carnival to check if there were fridges.  None of the three rooms have fridges.  8163 (balcony), 8175 (interior), 8206 (interior).

We are purchasing the Cheers package.  Do you think my husband and I would be able to order a couple mimosas in the morning on the ship, transfer them to a thermos, and 5 minutes later order a couple more mimosas to put in the thermos?  Would I be able to take the thermos to Half Moon Cay?

If we have Cheers, will I be able to get a mimosa (or any drink) in the morning, pour it in my cup .... wait 5 minutes and get another mimosa to pour in my cup to take with me to the Serenity Level?  I was also thinking of taking it with me to Half Moon Cay?

I just got off the Sunshine! social plan worked perfectly to communicate with my family at home on Facebook messenger. I could also upload pics to FacebooK, as well as get on Instagram and Twitter! Well worth the $25. Just be aware that it is not available in ports. I just had to let my older kids at home know I would be unavailable until I got back to the ship.

We used Pat & Diane for a snorkel tour! It was wonderful. We actually did the snorkel and private beach tour with lunch. Great people and a lot of fun. If you google Pat and Diane you will find them. They get great reviews on trip advisor also!

I just looked at the schedule. I'm on the Sunshine 7/10 ...... looks like we have a substitute CD, I've read great things about Jamie Dee, so we'll see who the new one is.

 

 

 

Deb[/Jaime Dee stated on her FacebooK page that July 10-18 will be her last one before vacation. Tyler Ryan will be there when she leaves. We sail the week before you on July 5. Looks like we both may be lucky and get to sail with Jaime Dee!

Thanks for the review! My husband and I will be celebrating our 30th anniversary on the July 5 sailing on sunshine! I can't wait! We missed the cabanas. Did you happen to notice if there were any available still when you picked your cabana? I've heard they sometimes have one or two even though it says "sold out." Thanks again! :)

Thank you! And yes, I meant July 5th! Lol

We are sailing june 5 on Sunshine. We have FTTF so we are planning on arriving early and hopefully boarding early. I read somewhere that you can't enter parking lot until 2 hours before boarding time. What time will we be able to get in parking lot? Thank you! These boards have been so helpful in planning our trip!

If we only have one sea day (the first full day) will they still do the chocolate buffet?
