  1. I was going to do the transatlantic on the Jubilee next year but that went out the window … so I rebooked for the transatlantic on the Venezia instead! My first TA!
  2. Thanks so much and have an amazing cruise! I will be parking myself at Shaq’s chicken loading up on the Celebration so it will be an amazing time!
  3. Ohh!! I will keep you entertained when you get back to AZ… I am back on the Celebration on 1/8 😆
  4. Expect lots of pictures 😂 I hope the Wi-Fi will cooperate… I will be uploading here and uploading on insta so keep the fingers crossed!
  5. Speedy recovery my friend so you can get back to the sunshine!!! You might have a very white Christmas! I have not been on a Panama Canal cruise yet… none of the ships doing the crossing interests me yet… but that’s on my list!
  6. This is a virtual boarding call for the virtual cruise onboard the Celebration on Carnival. Come along to see what’s new, what’s different on another Christmas cruise!
  7. The time has come for another Christmas cruise… this will be my second cruise on Carnival. My last Carnival cruise was on the Mardi Gras Christmas cruise last year. Excited to see what’s different what’s the same and the beautiful ship I have heard so much about. I have been on a few cruises since the Mardi Gras just not on Carnival. As always you got questions I will see if I can find someone onboard for the answer 😆
  8. Thank you so much. The other cruise line migrated over to e muster… so basically you go to the station they scan your card and ask if you want to see the life jacket demo again and then you are good to go. You are supposed to watch the video in the room or on the mobile device before you check in. They eliminated the standing around in a big group for 15 minutes. Also Disney funneled the guests through the “crew” access area to get to the muster station. The steps were different and seemed steeper to me. A poor lady fell on day 1 enroute to the drill.
  9. Wow! Thanks so much! I love food suggestions! If I have time nect week that will be the place to go!
  10. Disney cruise gives you more time to interact with the characters and that “magical” moment than Disney Parks. I really enjoy my “Christmas” time onboard the ship!
  11. The people in line were in matching PJs to take photos with Mickey the most, then Santa then Minnie. I only say PJS for pictures and never in the dinning room. The best happy hour is at Pub 50%off pretty much everything on the menu, pink was two cocktails for $8.00, there was another bar up in the pool deck that had 30% off. Usually it is 6-7pm than 9-10pm. If you have late Dinning and see the early show you really won’t be able to participate in the happy hour unless you eat really fast and try to catch the late happy hour. I showed up at 5:30 and was the first in line. When the doors open Concierge were already seated having popcorn so if it’s something you want to see show up early especially beauty and the beast. I suggest row 5-10 center. Anything father back you will just see movements on stage and hear the songs and not see the intricate work they put into the show. I liked Beauty and the Beast the best Broadway quality then Disney Believe then the Golden Mickey. The Genie in Disney’s believe was phenomenal!
  12. I think everyone is different and tolerate / enjoy different things. The technology is great but I was not a fan of the room dims and Crush started to play charade with the fish asking you to guess what it is… the kids were shouting out answers while you are trying to order dinner and trying to hear your server (who are wearing masks). It was my least favorite place to dine.
  13. Have an amazing cruise! Thank you so much! If you want to meet the characters, show up 30 minutes prior to the announced time at the area where the characters will be!! Especially if it’s someone you really want to see… Hook/Chip Dale / Captain Jack Sparrow/ most princesses will only appear once during a 4 night cruise!
  14. Have an amazing cruise! The food on the Dream was fantastic but remember Disney cruise fare is usually more than NCL/Carnival/Royal so I expected the food offerings to be better. I was not expecting how cheaply they priced their drinks at the bar and then run happy hour twice a day!
  15. I am sure it will be fun on the Celebration. Will be back on Royal in February… doing Oasis / Harmony then Symphony…side by side or B3B or whatever the terminology is 😂
  16. Day 5 I truly enjoyed my Disney Cruise. It was very different than anything I experienced (NCL, Celebrity, Royal, Carnival, Princess). Totally different vibe. I am glad I did it and for 4 nights only. I will probably return but not anytime soon! I can’t see myself on a B2B on a Disney Cruise but I can on Royal 😂 . I can’t wait for my Christmas holiday cruise on Carnival Celebration!
  17. Day 5 I have a late flight out of Fort Lauderdale so I decided to hang out at Miami for a bit and visit my favorite Cuban restaurant!
  18. Day 5 I spotted a sea turtle while waiting for breakfast to open up at 8:15AM. You have to bring your luggage with you because after breakfast you have to disembark. I got the later time. Like I said before very civilized disembarkation!
  19. Day 4 Animator Palette Dinner and a show… so you rotate around to all the restaurants at least once on a 4 night cruise. I ended us at Royal Palace twice and that’s very close to a MDR you find on any cruise line. Animator Palette and Enchanted Garden were very different and unique. I do like the server follows you when you rotate. The same server the same table number. IMG_2327.MOV
