I look at it like this: Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy cows and cream comes from cows and cream makes ice cream and ice cream makes me HAPPY!

Can you get BBD rum anyplace else besides Grand Cayman? I will be taking a Western Carb cruise in the next few weeks and I really like that stuff, so Iam hoping to find it there.

I Recently booked a Western Carib cruise out of New Orleans for May 22nd. When we booked it was for early seating dining. Just printed out our documents and it shows "wait listed". We'll that's alright, we could just do anytime dining---not! That shows wait listed too. Does this mean we are destined to eat in the Lido as it is not an option for us to have late dining. mainly because my DW is Diabetic and we usually go to bed early. Do I have any options?

I am getting ready to leave tomorrow for Long Beach where we will be taking a Journey cruise on the Miracle that leaves on Sunday. I was going to book an excursion in Manzanillo but when I looked on Carnivals website they showed zero. They have been listed on the site until yesterday. What's up with that? Is it just a glitch? Sure would hate to think they have cancelled another port on this sailing as they have already cancelled one. Anyone know?

My wife and I have been on the tequila tours four times. Three to Dona Engracia and once to Lluvia de estrellas as well as one in the center of town. As far as orange flavored tequila it would depend on the time of year and what fruit is in season. it would be the same at either of them. We personally like Dona Engracia's tequila and feel it is superior to others but that certainly is subjective. If orange is not available then I would recommend the Almond, certainly my favorite and great on ice cream. Hope this helps.

We released them all. Seems it was $95 to send one home. We get a lot of salmon were we live so it wasn't worth it to us. Still was a lot of fun.

My son, grandson and I fished in Ketchican last September. You can rent a pole with lures at Dolly's on the Fleet creek boardwalk for about $35 for three hours. She also sells fishing licenses. Walk on up the trail to you come to a bridge, just on the other side is an access road down to Fleet creek. We were back after two hours as we caught so many salmon we were physically exhausted. Way cheaper than a ships excursion and a great time.

My wife and I did this a few years ago. Seemed like it was a substantial drive. Say and hour or hour and Half. Got to tell you, although they try to tell you it is the famed "Hotel California" from the Eagles song it isn't. We had lunch and a drink there--kind of a faded place. Todos Santos however was a very historic town with museums and lots of art shops and local crafts available. There are many Americans living there and a good number of them are artists. All in all we enjoyed the excursion.

If you are going into to the sea of Cortez it is generally very smooth sailing.

When I looked for our cruise in January it was $300 plus.

I got it yesterday for our January 31st Miracle cruise. I see it is still available this evening.

I just got FTTF for our January 30th, 2016 Miracle cruise. It came on about 11:30 PST. today, so I guess now is the time to be vigilant about watching for it.

Thanks for the info. I was kind of leaning in that direction as we have two days there.

Going South at the end of January on the Carnival Miracle. I was thinking of taking a fishing excursion in either Cabo or Manzanillo. Both places have Ship sponsored trips. Which one would be the better spot for fishing at that time of year?

We were just on her early this month and had the FTTF but it was still around 12:30 before we got on.

No catch! not only did we receive a written notification from Carnival but our PVP called us as well. We just booked our free Alaska cruise and upgraded from inside to oceanview for $35 each. Doesn't get any better than that.
