Dinner tonight is Sorrentos…as we all know, taste is subjective. This is my 45th cruise. In all of my cruises RC has rated last in pizza. I haven’t gotten pizza on an RC cruise in years because their pizza is so bad. Nothing has changed, their pizza is still rock bottom. I sailed on MSC Magnifica last month for the first time, their pizza is off the charts. Sooooo good! Carnival is second to MSC. It’s killing me to eat this…

Forgot to mention…while strolling the promenade earlier I stopped at the cafe to get the 2 coffee cards I ordered. They only had me down as ordering 1 card (they’re cheaper if you purchase online prior to sailing, $31). So calls had to be made and what not but we got it settled. Anyways, he informed me the rules of the coffee card have changed. Used to be you could get refreshers and frapps with the card, they just took off 2 punches for those instead of the one punch. Not anymore. With the cards you can no longer get those at all, nor can you use them for macchiatos or cappuccinos. Well what the heck is the use in buying them then?????

I went to the casino after throwing on a sweater. The casino on this ship is large, lots of slots…which is where I prefer to throw all of money away! 😂 I’m down a bit. But hey, the week is still young! 😂 I’m going to head up on deck ( in my mind I just refer to it as the lido) and see what’s happening. The ice show is at 10:15 and I love a good ice show! I figure after the ice show I’ll see what kind of sandwiches they have at the cafe promenade…worst case, later, I’ll order room service since it’s 9:30p already. I’m a night time kinda girl so I’ll be up very late! But, just so I don’t miss out on the day time activities, I put a continental breakfast order on my door for 7:30am.

Last night I fell asleep at 9:30p and woke up at midnight, I had been up ever since. I was super tired and the second I got in to my room I took a nap…until 5p! 😂 So I got dressed and came up here to rain and wind…freezing! I’m going to have to head back down after the drink and get a sweater. I'm early seating and could have made it to the MDR but I’m not too hungry right now. I just purchased the internet for the week and after my D+ discount it was $50. Gonna get back to drinking this LIT….

I’m currently up on the pool deck waiting for my drink. It’s rainy and windy up here. There’s not as many people up here as there usually is on the first day as a result. Taking the elevator up from my room on deck 6 I noticed the promenade is packed. I’ll wait until later to go to the coffee shop and get the 2 coffee cards I purchased. Back to boarding… they were very strict with exact timing of letting us board the ship in the proper order. Checking in was a breeze. I was scheduled to arrive at noon but my plane landed at 8a. So I grabbed an Uber for $15 and got to the terminal at about 8:45. There were others who were on my plane who were rolling up also. We got in line about 9:15 and at 10 they let us in to checkin. We sat in the waiting area until after they boarded those needing assistance, The Key folks, pinnacles and suite guests. At exactly 11a they started boarding the rest of us. I stopped by my muster station to get checked off and went straight to the bar for my first D+ drink. Then I went up to the WJ and had a great lunch. Although it was packed, everything flowed rather nicely.

I just got to the hotel. I did the park and jet at the Clarion near the airport. It’s not the best place but what do you want for $150. Free shuttle and a place to keep your car for the week, too. The bed is rock hard, good thing I got that 5 hours sleep in! 😂 I’m going to catch the 3:3Oam shuttle to the airport.
