Searched but couldn't find anything. Has anyone done an excursion to the Xenses Park?

Thank you for all of the information. Excited to try a different cruise line. Hubby loves the Carnival Magic and is a creature of habit. It took a little convincing to get him to consider a different line but when I told him this was about $600 cheaper with $300 obc he gave in. [emoji3] more $$$ for the casino! Will join the other group. Thanks for the invite!

Thank you very much for your info OCruisers ! Sure appreciate it.

We are traveling with another couple and got the last side by side balconies. I'm really not that fussy, just trying to get a handle on the setup!

We have 8 cruises with Carnival and have just booked a 14 day with the Caribbean princess on Mar 6! Yay! We have a balcony and I always use an over the door shoe bag to keep my cabin organized.

1. Can we use one on the Princess ship doors? Either the bathroom or closet doors.

2. It looks like the cabin is quite a bit smaller than the balconies on Carnival. No couch, etc. so is the closet space very generous?

3. It looks like the balcony is deeper. Right?

4. They say "queen" beds. Are they bigger than that?

First of all to those who don't like the game - don't go! No one says you have to attend!

Also, it really depends on how long you have been married if you get to go up. We have been married 40 years and so are always right in between the age groups so don't really have much of a chance unless it's for the oldest couple but there always seems to be someone who is on their 50th anniversary cruise!

We enjoyed it so much that I used the same idea at our Relay for Life event the last couple of years and it's always a big hit with the crowd. You never can tell how some couples will answer the questions!

For the newbies asking about this awesome thread.

Thank you so much for steering me to this thread! It has great info and now gives me more of idea of what to do while we are in Nassau.

Terrific photo's! I can't wait to see everything first hand!

Thanks for the info LizaMM!

We have only been on one other cruise - last May on the Triumph and had cabin 8315. It was great! Loved having a balcony and will probably never cruise without one.

Question: I have read where some people experience some seasickness on the top decks. I was just the opposite. When I was down in the dining room or sitting in the showroom I could feel motion - my dh kept saying I was crazy - he couldn't feel a thing! I was very sensitive to the motion but it really didn't make me sick. Does anyone else experience this? I never noticed anything at all in our cabin or up on the Lido.

LizaMM,

Which cabin were you in? We are booked up there for next June! I have heard good and bad about the panorama deck.

I forgot, I just went on eBay after reading this and bought Skinny Dip and Decked! Can't wait to get them! Thanks for the tips.

I have photo-copied the pages out my Frommer's and other guides and put them in my travel doc case! It's such a great book, I hate to tear pages out and don't really want to take it with me.

I also cut and pasted maps of the islands all on one page so I will have it on one quick reference.

I do this type of thing for my boss for his travel itineraries and my hubby when he travels - they can never follow directions unless I spell it out for them.... Sorry guys;)
