wrigley80 Posted May 25, 2013 Author #426 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Thanks Brianna! I have looked at several web sites deck plans (even Carnival.com) and none of them show the serenity deck. But I knew it was somewhere because I saw it in your pictures. (I actually went thru your review for a 2nd time this week and looked at all your pictures :D) I just love them, I can see/feel the love and fun you and your Dad have together and it warms my heart. We are pretty sure we are going to go ahead book the Freedom 8 day on 12/13/14. Maybe it will have the upgrades by then (or maybe it won't) we'll have a wonderful time anyway. We are cruising with friends we made on the Glory in 2006. I'll be looking forward to more reviews from you. I'm a Wrigley50 fan for sure. I'm so happy I could help you. I'm sure the 2.0 upgrades will be done by then and you will have a great time. I will definitely be doing a review for our back-to-back cruises in December. I will be doing 2 separate reviews though....one for the Imagination and of course one for the SUNSHINE!!! I can't wait to cruise on the Sunshine. My dad is my best friend....there is no other person I want to cruise with. My dad is a diabetic with deteriorating vision so I want to enjoy every minute that I can with him. We do everything together!!!! Thank-You for your kind words. That made me cry today.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrigley80 Posted May 31, 2013 Author #428 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Thanks!!! I'll be looking forward to the cruise so that I can come back and do a wonderful review. I'm sure I will be camera crazy onboard the Carnival Sunshine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really enjoyed the 6-day itinerary (with the exception of Ocho Rios but it was nice to have a relaxing day onboard that day). I am going on back-to-back cruise in December. First cruise will be on the Carnival Imagination and the second cruise will be on the Carnival Sunshine. I can't wait to see the Sunshine. I will definitely be doing another photo review of the Sunshine when we return....and I'm sure I will do one for the Imagination as well :p :) ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omalley16 Posted June 2, 2013 #431 Share Posted June 2, 2013 After playing trivia we headed outside on the promenade deck to watch us sail-away from Key West We were already quite-a-ways out to sea This was always a nice place to sit and watch the beautiful blue water because there were hardly ever any people out here Can you tell me what deck these chair are on? This will be my go-to seating on the Freedom, and I haven't found out exactly where they are yet. Will be on the Freedom soon enough, can't wait! And thanks for the review, just went over all 22 pages, even though I won't be visiting any of those ports. Now I really can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is on Lobby Deck...just off the Lobby Bar, Guest Services, and Shore Excursion Desk area. The chairs and benches are on both sides of the ship. It's where my dad and I sat quite a few times....it was always very quiet out there. There were never too many people. Enjoy your time on the Carnival Freedom!!!

bbmom2boys Posted July 29, 2013 #440 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Hey Wrigley!!! LOVED THE REVIEW! We have a lot in common! We live just north of Rockford IL in Roscoe so we live in Danica's hometown. Her parents were customers of ours and she was a few years older than my boys in school! We sail on the Freedom on August 24th for the 8 day to Aruba! I can not wait!!! That is why when I saw your Freedom review I just had to read THE WHOLE THING! lol We sailed her to the Panama Canal in 2011 and loved it! And yes we are die hard Cub fans and yes maybe next year but we love them every year no matter what! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gives you a chance to relive your vacation.....hehe. You will enjoy the Freedom. Be sure to check out the Serenity deck area. We spent a lot of late nights out there. One night after dinner we went up there to look out at the stars and fell asleep on one of the clamshells....we woke up about 2:00 am. Careful those things are addicting.....haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
