MikeyA53 Posted October 3, 2010 Author #277 Share Posted October 3, 2010 We enjoyed the dancing/singing waiters on the Destiny and Imagination but they were a lot more entertaining on the Valor. In the following photos they can be seen on both sets of stairs serenading the crowd but on other days they were dancing on the tray tables.

rayteacher17 Posted October 4, 2010 #281 Share Posted October 4, 2010 I'm so glad you're up to the Valor part of your trip! I'll be sailing her over Christmas for my first Carnival cruise. In the picture of the adults only area it looks like there is a ceiling over the pool. Does it cover the entire area, or is any of it open to the sun? Great review, you're getting me soo fired up for my trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyA53 Posted October 4, 2010 Author #284 Share Posted October 4, 2010 After dinner the adults went to the Paris Hot Lounge for karaoke until it was time to go next door to the Eagles Lounge to see Carl Strong, our favorite comedian from our Destiny cruise. After the show we all went over to the Paris Hot Lounge again for more karaoke, this time, Tracy and Rick (after a few drinks :D) each sang a song. Then it was hurry up and off to the Eagles Lounge again for Darren Sanders, the comedian we enjoyed on our Imagination cruise. Even tho it was basically the same acts we still enjoyed both of them. Carl Strong noticed us after the show and made a remark " Hey, didn’t I see you two on the Destiny, you were sitting right up front, are you guys following me around". We missed a show called ‘ Nightclub Express’ in the Ivanhoe Lounge featuring the Valor dancers and the vocals of Matt and Danielle. You have to pick and chose what you want to do each night because there is a lot going on. Most lounges have some sort of entertainment, for example tonight we also had : Island Sounds with Kool Runningz on the Lido deck Piano Music with Odeta in the American Lounge Latin Music with Just Duet in the Winston Lounge Rock Music with Pure Band at the Casino Bar Piano Bar Fun with Randy at the Lindy Hop Dance Club with DJ Cesar in the One Small Step Lounge If your wondering what the kids are up to each and every night, they have their own activities. Every once in a while they will join us for a show or karaoke but otherwise they have a curfew and we make sure they abide by it. Rick, rocking it in the Paris Hot Lounge Our beautiful ladies Next: Grand Cayman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellytots Posted October 4, 2010 #285 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Mike, Thanks for mentioning Dolphin Mall in your earlier post. We didn't know this place existed and will definitely head there on the Sunday we get off the boat for a few hours as our flight doesn't leave Miami until 10.30pm the Sun night.

MikeyA53 Posted October 4, 2010 Author #292 Share Posted October 4, 2010 After breakfast on the Lido deck we all took a tender to Grand Cayman. Since we are coming back next week on the Freedom we decide to go shopping this time around and next week we would go to 7 Mile Beach. It was another very hot day, we stayed until 2:00 p.m and returned to the ship. Also in port, Carnival Legend Carnival Destiny & Celebrity Soltice Loading the Passengers Off it goes toward Grand Cayman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
