I was wondering the same thing. I did Mr Tabasco in Cozumel and we had a BLAST!! Please come back afterwards and review it for us!

Breakfast Ice Cream Cone!!! HAHAHAHAHAHHAA I told my hubby about this and he says you are a woman after his own heart! He gets a cone every time we pass a Swirls. Sometimes I think he purposely takes the long way around to pass one! NOW I'll have to deal with breakfast cones!!!

We were on the Valor and saw lots of people dressed as 80's retro. I didnt realize they had theme nights, and that was my 3rd cruise! I'm heading out on the Mardi Gras in October and cant help but wonder what other themes and when they are so we know when to pack. Does anyone have any tips on where to find this?

I'm scheduled for October, and I'm looking forward to the information!! We've only sailed Conquest Class ships and I'm very excited to go on the MG!!!

Dont you just love it when they overcome something? My daughter is also autistic and she has become quite independent, exceeding everything "they" said she'd be able to do. Our family mascot is the flying pig. People will say something will happen when pigs fly? Well pigs regularly fly around out house!!!

Thank you all so much for all of your help and suggestions! We set sail in September, so I may be back with more questions!

To date, we have only cruised Conquest Class. I'm quite excited about going on the Mardi Gras while my autistic hubby is in panic mode. He has many questions, some I'm hoping someone can help me out with. I could have sworn I saw somewhere that there is a deli, that was open late, allowing for late night snacking. I cannot seem to find it again. Is there a sandwich deli? Is there a Pizza Pirate along with the Pizza Del Capitano? When on the Conquest Class, this board gave me the ultimate embarkation tip, the "hidden" BBQ place that is usually empty when you get on the ship. Is there any such place on the Mardi Gras? Also, are there any other tips & tricks you know about? Thank you in advance!

Please say they have this in a "mocktail" version!! Its hard enough staying away from tequila tasting, and now I want a martini!! 🙂

I'm due to sail in a few days on Valor! I'm now doing my last minute planning, Some of which is to give my family the "in case of emergency" information. I did this 2 years ago and now I cannot find it anywhere. I also like to put this information in wallets so if something happens, and we are stuck somewhere and need to call Carnival, we'll have the info. Yes, I know, over kill. But its things like this that allow me to enjoy myself. Anxiety really sucks. Does anyone have any clue where to find this?

Its also a good idea to practice. My daughter is autistic. She's fairly independent, and is actually now living with her boyfriend, and we still do "social stories" to practice what she may come up against. I'll tell her what will be going on and why I'm concerned. We went to a large weekend outing for my fraternity and I was very concerned about this same thing. I showed her the crest on my shirt and told her if we got separated, all she had to do is find someone wearing a shirt with that crest and tell them my name and they'll get her to me. The employees all have different colors, but they all have name tags. "find someone wearing a name tag, give them your card, and they'll get you back to me". I'm certain you can find a picture of a few employees with different colored uniforms so he can realize the uniforms are different, so he needs to look for name tags.

OH DEAR!!!! That is, well, I got nothing!!!

I have had the RnY surgery. At that point in your journey, you'll be on regular foods and should have made enough mistakes to know how your new body can eat. Do yourself a favor, though.... do NOT keep doing things is does NOT like to train it to eat the crap that got you to the surgery in the first place. Remember the old adage "My eyes are bigger than my stomach"? oh so VERY true! You can ALWAYS ask for more if you are still hungry, or leave the dining room and hit the buffet. But if you are honest with yourself, you wont be hungry. Food is loud. Just be certain to acknowledge the discomfort in your small, overstretched stomach is louder..... I hope this helped!! (ps, lost 60 lbs with surgery, gained 20 because I didn't follow my own advice, lost 40 & maintained for 3 years)

HAHAHAHAHHA I really need to watch how I phrase things with this group!

Update!! It is VERY elegant! Totally not me, but Hubby says I can pull it off. And it will travel well, meaning it will take up little space without wrinkles... and everything is covered! Thank you all so much for all the laughs!!

OH MY GOSH!!!!! Yes, complete mistake!!!! OOPS!!! The hubby will love this goof! <blush>
