meanjean80 Posted July 18, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Hi all. Just off the Carnival Legend 7/9-7/16 sailing to Alaska. Willing to answer any questions but wanted to give a specific shout out to Jonathan in the Piano Bar. He may have been the best I have ever seen...talented, energetic, and he really got the crowds going each night. Full bar most nights, too. Played without break starting at 9pm every night but the last one. If you are a piano bar aficionado you won't want to miss him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaniceB Posted July 19, 2019 #2 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Thanks, I hope he is still there when I get on the ship. I love the piano bar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joepeka Posted July 19, 2019 #4 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Thank you for the piano bar tip! I do have a question and I sincerely hope/pray it doesn't cause this thread to go down a rabbit hole but I was wondering if Legend has implemented the new "no plastic" program yet? We'll be on Legend in a couple of weeks and are planning to bring our metal straws and stir sticks but would rather leave them home if that ship hasn't cut over to the new program. TIA!

bound4dbeach Posted July 19, 2019 #5 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Meanjean, would you happen to have the port guides & maps? I always like carnivals synopsis and what not. What ports did you visit and what excursions did you do? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joepeka Posted July 21, 2019 #6 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Meanjean: you still out there? I know it's been brutally hot in New York City lately and hopefully that's not keeping you from our questions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meanjean80 Posted July 23, 2019 Author #7 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Hi all. Had no idea these questions were there. I'd like to blame the heat but am sitting in air conditioning, so no excuses. My ports of call were Skagway (we did the Haines Wilderness Adventure), Juno (Mendenhall Glacier, MacCauley Hatchery, and Salmon Bake), Ketchican (Rainforest Walk & Totems). I'll try to get up a detailed review soon. These are all ship's tours because booking otherwise, although cheaper, would have resulted in so much drama with my sister being convinced we would miss the ship that it is not worth it. Highlight was sailing through Tracey Arm Fjord, which was stunning. That was also the day we had the most whales, dolphins, and sharks around the ship. Lowlight was the stop in Victoria. I guess it is necessary because of the Jones act, but it was pointless. They seemed to have closed down for the day before we got there at 7:30pm. Would much rather have had four more hours in Ketchican. And as I mentioned in another thread, definitely in the "no straw" zone on Legend. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be on her in October for the Panama Canal cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvmycruiseaddiction Posted August 22, 2019 #9 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I love the piano bar, always my favorite place for music in the evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
