Great review, as always, from Willdra. Regarding the guy getting arrested, it's a regular occurrence in Galveston (almost sounds as if Galveston is full of thugs, yes?). There is a webcam that I follow regularly, and the camera operators always focus on the people getting their own personalized disembarkation by the police when the ships arrive.

A good PVP is invaluable to me. My first PVP was great - always called with cruise deals for which we were eligible, and she would call me if I even logged into my Carnival account. She suddenly left - phone number and emails were invalid. I always do my own research, put a cruise on hold and then call my PVP for questions not available to me in an online booking. My newest PVP informed me of a perk for my upcoming cruise that I had NO idea that I was eligible to take advantage of.

Fixed.

I’ve been around here for 11 years. I just use my wise-a** comments in strategic places. I’ve seen enough of Megan’s reviews to know that she was looking for a milk shake. 😉

Duh! 😄

Holy crap - you don’t mess around before drinking once you board.

No water to drink nearby?

That’s about how I see people when I’ve had a few too many adult beverages.

If I thought my work productivity would suffer while reading reviews by Greg, Sid and Megan simultaneously, the level of inactivity at work would plummet to new lows with Wildra’s addition. Always great stuff.

Those pizzas look like they were made by someone who reached their Cheers limit for the day.

A follow up question to Sid is, “Is there something you WON’T eat?”

Two things I can say for certain while reading Sid’s posts are that (1) I have no idea what he’s eating and (2) if I know what it is, I’m certainly not eating it.

We vacationed in Cabo for a week about 15 years in July. Maybe I’m just used to the warm Caribbean waters, but the water in Cabo that year was downright COLD. There were very few people swimming in the ocean due to how cold it was.

Based on the pictures you posted in the subsequent post, you hung out with monkeys?

That sounds like every single "discussion" I have with my wife when she asks me to get something out of the attic.

This would totally be me.

With all those steps and walking, I'd need an entire bed on which to rest instead of sitting on a bench.

My work productivity will suffer dramatically as a result of these three simultaneous reviews.

As part of the 428 pages in the other thread, I know you have stayed at the Hampton Inn in the Brickell area. I, too, stayed there, before our cruise on the Glory in 2018. I'm following this thread.

THAT'S the way to start the day! It's how we start our round of golf, and continue with 1 shot on each of the par 3's and 1 at the turn.

I guess I skipped right over the word “was.”

That’s a hard no for me. I don’t even want another human’s blood ON me much less consume it.

I'm looking for my bartender Dajana.

I’m jealous that you’ll be able to see my all-time favorite Carnival employee. Dajana was at the Alchemy bar in late July on the Vista, and her contract ran out just a few weeks after our cruise. I’d go to the Alchemy bar and just give her a number on the spice level, and she’d make the drink accordingly. She told me she’d be on the Celebration and I heard she’s at the Latitudes bar. She’s got a great personality.

As a regular league, and sometimes tournament bowler, I haven’t seen a bowling shirt like that in years. These are two of mine. The second obviously speaks to my love of cruising and the beach.
