We were on the September 9th cruise as well. Cybercat is right on the money and our review would be very similar.

This was our 3rd time on Carnival and we thought this was a great trip. The Serenity decks were great, sitting up top with a cold drink as the ship left each port was fantastic. What a view!

The food was fine and the cruise director and the shows made it all a lot of fun. We returned and will stay with Carnival because we've learned they are the fun ships.

We never felt the ship was too crowded and the crew did a good job providing service with a smile. Nice cruise on the Sunshine.

For the iPad, go to the App Store and shut off "iPad only".

 

The hub app is an iPhone app, but you can download it to the iPad.

 

Hope this helps.

We were having the same problem, your advice worked perfectly on our IPad - Thank you :)

Any Paigow poker?

Maybe..........just maybe, the Anthem is doing just fine, final corrections and details are moving along, and the Anthem is just like any other ship in the fleet, doing what they need to do to make everyone as happy as they can.

 

I cannot believe that some people here on Cruise Critic just need to beat the dead horse..........to try to bring it to life again........just to find another way to kill it!

 

The Anthem of the Seas came through a terrible storm, proved to be a ship that can take maximum strength winds, and seas, and with a damn good Captain aboard, brought the ship through a category 3 or 4 hurricane, came back home, and the ship suffered mostly cosmetic damage.

 

How many other ships, other lines, etc have experienced something similar?

 

We have cruised thru a hurricane, catagory 2 and a typhoon in the Sea of Japan. Yes, the ship had some damage, again cosmetic, and everyone came off both of our voyages, safe and sound. A few were shaken, but that is pretty normal, given the broad spectrum of passengers, from first timers to old seagoing sailors.

 

Anytime a ship experiences what the Anthem did last week....much will be written about the experience and the emotions.

 

There were more emotions and Monday morning quarterbacking on the sailing of February 6th, from those CC members on land.......than on the ship.

 

My hat is off to changkp75, aquahound, loubetti to an extent (hey loubetti.....give us the difference between an isobar and a millibar??) and a few others that would rather give reason, logic and facts, than of those that ran at the mouth emotionally.........via the keyboard.

 

Let the Anthem be the ship that she is, let Captain Claus Andersen return to his job as the senior rotating captain and let everyone go on with their life.

 

I'm not going to ask the mods to close this thread, as I'm sure that there are some that may have a need to keep it going.

 

No one could wish for a Perfect Storm.......but I believe that the passengers aboard did experience that.......and came away to talk all about it. Those are the only people that I'm interested in hearing from.

 

Pax vobiscum!!;)

Really? - a simple couple of posts wondering how things are going and you start with the 10 paragraph post. Maybe it is you who need to take a break.

Kind of odd that so many were live blogging from the Anthem on the storm trip even before the weather hit and now the silence is deafening.

Also wondering how things are going.
