I thought the night club was 18 and over, but they can’t drink. Did this change?

No, since 1987 when we started cruising Carnival we were carded at the dance clubs for 21. We were turned away the first cruise. 😉 The dance clubs are still 21 and up and the security at the door "a.k.a bouncers" still card. BUT the daytime bars like those on Lido allow all ages at the tables as does the indoor Red Frog bar with its game tables but no sitting at the actual bar for those under 21.  We sailed in early 2020 and this was still the way Carnival was doing things.

In the end just enjoy your family time aboard the Ship. Those memories are what count.

Huh? 

It's another day in the sun on a fun ship.

I would take the inside room. I had a balcony out of San Juan thinking I would use it a lot. Surprisingly, I did not.

Same. I'm so short the moment I sit down out there all I can see is the handrail 🙂

 Do you have to buy an excursion to go to Jack’s Sack?

Not if both are willing 😉 

I've seen many scenes in American movies and TV programs of men in steam rooms and saunas wearing a towel around their waist and not once did I think they were nude or indecent.

Why would there be a charge for a cheese sandwich in the main dining room? 

There wouldn't. Maybe this was a remark with a wild hair like the one that came with the bacon.😉

 frankly could care less about the holiday wishes of total strangers.  Emails or phone calls from home mean far more, at least to me.

I couldn't care less, family always.

Skeet shooting from the fantail aboard Carnival Jubilee 1988.

 

My uncle enjoyed the skeet shooting from the fantail with his friends and they would compete. I think Carnival charged $6 for 3 pulls. I suppose this sport won't return but it sure was exciting to watch the grown ups firing shotguns from the back of a moving ship.

 whose business? I'm retired

You have always spoken in the present tense, e.g. "we grill our burgers so they're always hot and juicy " and " I open with two gals on shift" etc. If you no longer operate a lunch counter you should have said so. I valued your opinions.

that's the plan Stan, the only question is......... 

 

I am sticking with savings interest until this is over

Now is not the time to invest in stocks for many, Carnival stock or otherwise. Your business has been shuttered by the state Public Health Department, best of luck during this difficult time.

Better pizzas come from pizza ovens and not those burger king conveyor racks. 

We have flown from Nebraska on the day of and made the same ground connections you are thinking of doing. It was no problem and we will be doing it again next year. Don't worry so much, go with peace of mind.

Once again my apologies. I was going to send you a PM but can’t for some reason. 
I have no problem admitting when I’m wrong ...sorry to have reacted that way .

I like it’s just so common for people to attack people on CC that I took it wrong. 

It was not my most well written post that's for sure. Glad you figured out the first sentence was in reply to the person I quoted and the second sentence was written to you.

You can find good information on this site but it's like panning for gold to find a good nugget of information.

As I said IN MY OPINION 🙄

I hope you know I was supporting you 😉

Jim just said Carnival is giving their clients what they want. So no need to get with the times.

The opinion of one person is just that, one opinion. Midwestgal - You do you and happy cruising to you.

Imitation ice capes does sound exciting....😎  

Our granddaughter wore an ice cape from Frozen like this one for Halloween on the Pride. She had fun but grandpa was more interested in his frozen margarita 🤣

We stayed in the Varden Hotel.  Pretty tiny room, but located walking distance from many restaurants, and the area seemed safe.

Varden Hotel

Those brick wall views from the rooms in the photos are stunning 😉 

I'm glad to see this topic posted here on the cruise insurance forum. I'm going HAL next cruise and would have missed this on the Carnival board.

It gets very humid in there and feels like a sauna. You won't be sunbathing through a glass roof. People use the pool and hot tubs there.

I beg your pardon! What are you talking about??? Tacky, tacky.  😣

This is the question you replied to, it was written to the author of the thread: " 

Hello Terab85

   May I ask, what is your husband wearing in his lapel pocket in your formal photo ? "

That's Groot, the tree character from Guardians of The Galaxy  There's also a pic of him at Paradise Beach in Cozumel up above.  

Joe, how long have you and your husband been together? 😉

I'm loving this conversation.  Is there an age restriction in the sauna?  I would like to try, but certainly don't know the procedure.  I guessing I'll enter with a bathing suit and a towel that will somehow be avalible  when I enter.  Do I say hi or avoid eye contact.  Pure pilgrim here.

If towels were in the sauna waiting for you they would be a sopping wet mess. Towels are stored near the lockers for you to help yourself. As far as socializing in there my hubs says it's about the same as when he's standing at a urinal with a man nearby: no talking, no eye contact. YMMV, Pilgrim 🙂
