We are docking in Halifax. Captain Crescenzo got us here a half hour early! Today our plan is to walk the Harbourwalk. Last year when we were here we did a city tour so we didn’t have the time. The last time we did the Harbourwalk was before Covid, so I’m sure some things have changed. We waited an hour for the mad rush to decline before heading off the ship at 2pm. Here are some views as we made our way to the Harbourwalk. We are docked at Pier 21….. This was my Husband Daycare last year….. Samuel Cunard….. A few more sculptures….. Canadian Navy Memorial….. To be continued……

I head back to the cabin to enjoy my coffee, and will use this time to work on the pictures for the review. Patti is getting our laundry together to send out. There are a lot of things happening this morning before we get to Halifax, so at 9:30 Patti grabs the camera and heads out. I tell her that I will meet her at RoCoco later. She passes by the mid ship pool area which has now been decorated for the Festa Italiana later tonight…… Patti heads aft on Deck 11 to check out Camp Ocean and Dr. Seuss Bookville….. To be continued……

Day # 5 - 9/27/23 - Halifax, NS (1:30pm – 8pm). We are up at 7am to a partly cloudy, chilly, 44 degree day. We are not scheduled to arrive at Halifax until 1:30pm. Looking at the bow camera, it appears that the seas are fairly calm….. Here are today’s Fun Times……. Switching to the aft camera which shows the mid ship pool on Lido Deck, we can see that the towel animals are out in force….. Since I’m going up to the Java Blue Café for my morning coffee anyway, I grab the camera and head up to document the scene….. To be continued…..

Thank you so much for taking the time to post this. It's posts like these that make it all worthwhile. Though it is very time consuming, It is a way to relive the whole cruise and share photos, information, and details with our Cruise Critic family. Because of our reviews, we have gotten to meet so many CC members while on board the various ships, and have become close friends with many of them. We met even more after we transitioned to the Journeys part of the cruise, and they were all so happy to become part of the review. Bottom line is, we enjoy doing these reviews and will continue to do so!

The Ropes Course and Sports Square aren’t busy at all….. There’s some Pickleball action going on….. At this point we both made our way back to the cabin to relax and nap until sail away. When we did sail away at 7:45pm it was already dark outside, so nothing really to take pictures of. After our late lunch we weren’t really hungry for a full meal, so we went to the Lido Marketplace again for something light. Patti made herself a salad, and saw that they had jambalaya, so she brought me a bowl…… I went to the deli for a grilled ham and cheese and some fries….. Afterwards, Patti was tired from all the walking she did today, so she decided to head back to the cabin and read. I went down to the Lobby Bar and had some double Bacardi and Pepsi’s until it was time for Family Feud: After Hours. I got a seat back by the bar. You’re not allowed to take pictures during the show, so I took a couple of pre-show pictures before putting the camera away….. The show was hilarious. Don’t miss it if your ship offers it. I went back to the Lobby Bar for a few more drinks until the doors opened for the Late Night Comedy Showcase in the Teatro Rosso. Tonight we will have two new comedians….. Comedy Club Host Mathew (with one “T”) gets it started…. First up is JeROME. He was very good…… Carl Faulkenberry was next. He was excellent! Afterwards, it was back to the cabin for the night. Coming up next: Our return to Halifax and the Harbourwalk!

3K for 5-day NYE cruise in inside cabin?!
Jamman54 replied to JinxyB's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I find that you need to book NYE cruises as soon as they are opened for booking. That's when the prices are the lowest. The prices continue to rise as the amount of cabins available to book goes down. The same for other popular times as well. -
Patti is back outside again. Here are a few views looking down towards the waterfront….. Patti heads into King’s Square…..
