They didn’t have that one last year on Valor yet. I had to be conscientious of what I was getting and how I was going to get it back. After we got our drinks we went to see if the “Fun Shops” were open yet so I could get my lanyard for my Sail & Sign card. I get a new one for each cruise. They have both blue and red and have “Carnival” on them but I’d really love it if they’d have the ship’s name on them as well. I also get a ship model and a ship ornament from each cruise. We have a display for those. There were a few others waiting for the shops to open and a crew member told us they were supposed to be open and that the employees were in a meeting that’s running late. A meeting? OK. We waited a few minutes and gave up. Others left too and the poor crew member was telling us “please don’t leave, they’ll open in a few minutes”. We let him know we had no hurry and would come back a little while later. We decided to head back to our cabin to get showered and ready for dinner then would go back down to the Fun Shops since they would be open by then. When we got to our cabin went out on the balcony for a couple of pictures. http://i934.photobucket.com/albums/ad187/H_B_G/04-05-2014%20-%20Miami%20FL%20part%202/IMG_6474-1.jpg http://i934.photobucket.com/albums/ad187/H_B_G/04-05-2014%20-%20Miami%20FL%20part%202/IMG_6475-1.jpg Our towel animal, either a dog or a bunny, was waiting for us on the bed along with the next edition of the “Fun Times” for tomorrow’s Sea Day. http://i934.photobucket.com/albums/ad187/H_B_G/04-05-2014%20-%20Miami%20FL%20part%202/IMG_6476-1.jpg After we got our showers and ready, we noticed that it was getting close to sunset time so we went out on our balcony for sunset and pictures. We were in for a real treat, since this was one of the best, if not the best, sunset we’ve ever gotten to see while on a cruise. There were a few clouds but it was clear on the horizon and we were able to see the sun set completely. We were hoping to see that “green flash” I’m always reading about here on Cruise Critic, but we didn’t see it. http://i934.photobucket.com/albums/ad187/H_B_G/04-05-2014%20-%20Miami%20FL%20part%202/IMG_6486-1.jpg http://i934.photobucket.com/albums/ad187/H_B_G/04-05-2014%20-%20Miami%20FL%20part%202/IMG_6487-1.jpg http://i934.photobucket.com/albums/ad187/H_B_G/04-05-2014%20-%20Miami%20FL%20part%202/IMG_6488-1.jpg Thanks for your review..............it makes me miss cruising SO much more...........Pictures are stunning.

Thank you. We are really missing cruising too. We haven't cruised since our 2nd Liberty cruise in 2015, so I'm feeling the "cruise withdrawals", even before the pandemic. We actually had one booked for May 2020 on Magic (cancelled, obviously) and one on Fascination out of San Juan in Oct. 2021, thinking that's since Carnival is going to sell Fascination. Hopefully soon. Edited December 17, 2020 by pghsteelerfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
