Rare jam19872016 Posted October 8, 2017 Author #29 Share Posted October 8, 2017 When the promenade is crowded, I like to use these stairs and use Deck 4 to get where I need to go. By crowded I mean, photographers taking up too much space. The Taste Bar. They offer small samples of food here 3-4 times a week during the evening hours. Video Arcade.

Rare Silent Penguin Posted October 8, 2017 #33 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Enjoying the review, especially from a gambler's perspective since it's not something we do on the ship but like to go to the casinos while we're on vacation in New Jersey.

christygobar Posted October 9, 2017 #37 Share Posted October 9, 2017 We are on the Splendor in Dec - thanks for your review! Still will be waiting out our final itinerary for awhile, I think :/ I was under the impression they didn't have a Cherry on Top. Did they have a small candy area inside one of the other shops where you guys found your sour candy? (My DH and kids are big fans!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 9, 2017 Author #38 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Wow these are amazing. Cant wait to show my daughter tomorrow. I am so excited now!!!!! All four of us are going. Really appreciate the time you are taking to do this ...thank you:) You're very welcome. I enjoy doing it. Hope I have gotten you ready for all that pink lol. Enjoying the review, especially from a gambler's perspective since it's not something we do on the ship but like to go to the casinos while we're on vacation in New Jersey. I have never gambled at a land based casino, except in Nassau. I would imagine I would get a better payout on land but I just love cruising so much. You are smart to stay out of Carnival's casino that is for sure lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 9, 2017 Author #39 Share Posted October 9, 2017 We are on deck 7 Empress deck. Looking forward to see if you have any pics there.

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 9, 2017 Author #40 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Excellent narrative and photos. Keith Thanks! We are on the Splendor in Dec - thanks for your review! Still will be waiting out our final itinerary for awhile, I think :/I was under the impression they didn't have a Cherry on Top. Did they have a small candy area inside one of the other shops where you guys found your sour candy? (My DH and kids are big fans!) Not to start a debate between how cruise lines are handling these things, but I have a cruise on NCL the end of March. I received an updated itinerary in my email last week. Then again, there are complaints that they are making changes too far out. Guess it is a lose lose situation for the cruise lines. They don't have a Cherry on Top exactly. They have a very small shop located just outside the casino. I believe it is called "Formalities" but it is the same product just with a different branding and a smaller store so likely a smaller variety of candies than Cherry on Top. The bags do say Cherry on Top, likely for brand familiarity without having to invest in changing the storefront singing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 9, 2017 Author #42 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Walking back in, you turn to the left or the right to enter the buffet area. The buffet. They have another buffet located a little farther forward. When it is open it is usually the same thing located at the other buffet. Mongolian Wok on the right. Soft serve ice cream is located in several locations throughout lido. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 9, 2017 Author #44 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Walking inside, be prepared to pass someone trying to sell you something anytime you walk through here during the day. At the front of this deck, is more staterooms. Paintings on the walls by the rooms. Moving up to Deck 10, more staterooms all the way forward.

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 9, 2017 Author #45 Share Posted October 9, 2017 If you go all the way to the front of Deck 10, you will see doors and a light at the end of the tunnel. Outside them is the "secret deck". The views are are excellent and it is very quiet because not a lot of people know about it. Back inside, looking down from deck 10. Normally you could walk outside through this hall, but my path was blocked today. They were doing some deck washing out there, don't they know I had a tour to do? Sheesh. Outside the decks above Lido are covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 9, 2017 Author #50 Share Posted October 9, 2017 At the back of this Deck is the jogging track. And the basketball court. No Deck 13, because superstition. Up on Deck 14 is Mini Golf. And that concludes the tour of the Carnival Splendor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
