*My Platinum Review of Carnival Liberty**Eastern with Pics

[cuted126]

The little church on the island

 

Walking out of the church

 

Oh how I love Palm trees

 

Me and the palm tree

 

 

Oh yeah, I do

[cuted126]

Me and Dh walked the paths of Half Moon Cay like we were explorers before we actually found a spot on the beach. We walked in the church, found tons of bathrooms off the main path and we played at the playground lol.

Seriously, like two kids! It was the most fun we've had in awhile!

 

 

Just in case you are lost

[cuted126]

We found a spot really close to the pirate bar, but I wasn’t really feeling that spot. I kind of wanted to be further down the beach, where it was a little less congested and a tad less noisy! Before we moved, we both got one of those cute twister cups full of Pina colada. Dh made sure he requested NOT to have a pink cup lol. We people watched for a bit and then we took a stroll to see if we could find some better seats.

 

This is the life

 

 

 

That sky!

[alreadypacked]

Yep, Half Moon Cay is awesome!!

 

You guys clearly had a great time there. Love your pictures on the swings--pure, no doubt about it, fun!!

 

Can't wait to read the rest of your review!:)

Loving your review. Can't wait to be on the Liberty in Jan

[Yankeegirl]

So glad to find your review (I've read you others too) as we leave one week from today on the Western itinerary. Love HMC and look forward to the rest of your review! :-)

Your day on HMC looks like a blast! I am loving all your pictures! You look like someone on TV and it is driving me crazy trying to think who it is! I'll let you know if/when I ever remember who! :)

[cuted126]

I'm back with plenty of time to dedicate. I'm off until Monday!:D

[cuted126]

We ended with seats under a nice tree for shade right pass the “No lifeguard after this point” sign. The pirate bar music was still blaring, but the crowd was way smaller. From that point on, we relaxed in the water until it started to thunder. We did make it back up to the pirate bar to see the Hairy Man Contest.

 

Our new view

 

So Serene

 

Me: Are you sleep? Him: No

 

Hey, look I made a birdie friend since the hubby I was talking to is "resting his eyes"

 

Look at that storm heading straight for the Liberty...

 

Soon it was time to pack up to go. We took the back paths again! We didn’t eat on the island, but of course the bbq was available. The line to get back on the ship was LONG. I mean LONG. We got in the line around 3:15pm and last tender was 4:15.

I am loving your review!

 

We have never sailed the Liberty but have booked the 8 day cruise for November 2014 when she comes to Port Canaveral and we cannot wait.

 

Thanks for the great pictures!

[cuted126]

Walking the back paths, we did see a sign that said Nature Trail. I wanted to check it out, but I think my calling for Guy's was more important at the time!

 

"I Love Dis Bench"

 

HMC has the most beautiful flowers and trees! It is just a beautiful place

 

Amongst these flowers is a very clean restroom building

 

[cuted126]

I had to explore the Pirate Bar before we left

 

Aaawwwwww, Pirate Bar love!

 

First the storm came for the Liberty, now the cannons.....

 

This little guy had the most beautiful blue tail

[cuted126]

 

 

 

Back to the Liberty

 

By the time we got to the Liberty, the rain had started. It was short lived.

[cuted126]

Back on board, we both had Guys, I had a plain jane and Dh had the burger with the donkey sauce lol. I want to stop here to say that those fries are everything!! Especially with the BBQ sauce they have a condiment bar. We enjoyed it! I do miss the cheese for the fries though. Afterward, we showered, got dressed and explored the ship more.

Dh had no idea there was such a great sports bar on board. He was thoroughly impressed and it was Sunday too. I didn't think we were gonna leave.

He decided that he could watch football at home, but somehow we got stuck right outside the bar in front of that TV.

So, while he watched that, I watched the chandelier

[CZodda]

Great review cuted126! I was on the Liberty maybe about 7 years ago. Great ship. I would love to sail on her again, especially now that she has the 2.0 upgrades.

 

Keep up the great work! Can't wait to see more of your review!

[cuted126]

Still in front of the Sports bar

 

After, that we checked our pics in the photo gallery and then it was time for dinner so that we could go to the early show. We were determined that we were going to be “grown” and stay up late tonight lol! We even set at time of 1:00am as the time frame we had to make it too! Yup, we were gonna go hard or go home!

 

I tried to catch the sunset before dinner, but I missed it

 

For dinner that night, we had Maribel and her crew again! They are so excellent! Tonight, I tried something different than my usual caesar salad.

 

 

I tried French Onion soup

 

I did not like it too much and ended up with a Caesar salad instead. Hubby had a Caesar salad as well. My entrée was

Penne Mariscos

We are going on Liberty, HMC in 181 days :eek: sad to know that Karl with a K will not be our CD. Looking forward to trying a Guy's burger since I didn't have one on the breeze. Just too many other places to eat on that ship.

 

One question: where is Serenity on the Liberty? Thanks

 

Loves that you went on the swing on HMC. I love swings too.

[cuted126]

DH had two entrees every night:p

 

Tonight, he had Baked Meatloaf

 

He says it was "alright". He would give it a seven on a scale of 1-10. He also asked for the Short Ribs, but he ended up with this

 

Jerked Pork Lion, he didn't eat that much of that. My entrée was excellent. Desserts were sherbet and the diet lemon cake

 

 

Sherbet is sherbet and my cake was good as well! We never see the waiters sing, but this cruise we saw it every night.

 

The waiters getting low

The serenity deck is all the way forward on the Liberty. Half way around deck 10 and on deck 11 as well. Karl with a K is great! When he comes back, try to sail with him! You will have so much fun! I love to swing! I was totally content just swinging at HMC lol!

[cuted126]

Come on over to our roll call ..

 

I will definitely!

[cuted126]

Enjoying your review. I also remember reading other reviews by you.

 

I was exhausted by the time you got in the ship :eek:

 

Get well soon to all of you who got sick.. sounds like a nasty child was going around.

 

We sail the week before thanksgiving, got our flu shots yesterday...hoping to ward off any germies!

Thanks for reading along, I'm glad you are enjoying it. It was rough getting to that ship, but thanks God we made it It sucks that a lot of us got sick, but we had a great time. I was in bed two full days sick and i'm still not okay. Hopefully everything is fine on the Liberty going forward! She is a great ship!

 

My best friend and I were on this cruise as well! We were the two crazy blondes that mostly hung out in the EA Sports Bar. If you stopped by there in the evening we were there, in fact, Raul (the best bartender/server on the ship!) kept our "table" for us :)

 

BTW, my friend and I also got sinus/colds right before the Grand Turk Day. Cindy actually visited the medical center... $227 later, she was all set with a zpac, cough syrup and sudafed... After coming home, I learned that most of Utah has this same thing going on, so I don't really think it was cruise specific, just bad luck.

 

Keep up your review, its fun to see what others did in comparison to what we did...

We went to the sports bar only once on Sunday after HMC. OMG, sorry you guys got sick too:( I think something may have been going around on the ship. I don't know what's going on. We had a great time though and wouldn't hesitate to sail Liberty again. Jeez the medical center is expensive:eek:

Great review! :)

I think Karl is retiring. :(

 

We are aft, so I guess I'll get some exercise going there!

Enjoying the review so far, especially the photos! We are on this same itinerary in December and it cannot get here soon enough!

 

DW refuses to look at any of the Liberty reviews as she wants to be "surprised" when she gets aboard, but I like to at least have an idea of what to expect.

 

Looking forward to the rest of the review and of course, more pictures!:D

[cuted126]

The show for tonight was "The Magic & Comedy of Bob Brizendine" which was hilarious. No pics from that because they always ask you not to take pictures.

FunShip Special

 

The cute mask table in the Venetian Palace

 

I don't know what we did after that but, we were up to catch the Blue Iguana Mexican Fiesta With Karl and the fun patrol. See, we are not old people after all:D The DJ came out at 10,the games and tons of beads were thrown around 10:30 and Dancing and stuff started at 11pm.

 

Another thing I loved about Karl is that if you weren't dancing or at least singing, he would point you out and say something until you did lol. He came up to my hubby and put beads around his neck and told him that he had to dance now lol. Hubby is not a dancer, but he did a little move.

The party was fun and it lasted for awhile. After each event Karl would say "No sleep tonight, stay up and party" and that's what happened with the Mexican Fiesta. We left around midnight and went to the nightclub and around 1:30, people were still on Lido dancing long after the fun patrol had left. I think we crashed about 2:30am:o

Wait, before I wrap up, we did see comedy tonight. We saw Cowboy Bill and Stanley Ullman. We enjoyed both. Stanley Ullman was little funnier this night. Thank God we didn't have a hassle finding any seats, but that changed later in the cruise.
