Suess at Sea Breakfast and Suess-a-Palooza Parade

[Eli_6]

Has anyone been on the Vista lately (or any of the ships that do this) and can tell me what day these are on?  Also, I gather you have to wait to book until you are on board? Do I just go to guest services to do this?  Can I do it through the app?

 

Any info is appreciated!

The breakfast  was last sea day,but the parade first sea day.  There is also a storytime

It was fun seeing the joy on the children faces as they did the parade.   I along with others waved and clapped as they walked by

The day varies by itinerary but definitely a sea day. You are correct that you cannot book before you board. You don't have to sign up for the parade but you do have to sign up for the brunch. There's supposedly a table set up somewhere for signing up but we missed it so I went to guest services. Took less than 2 minutes.

The kids that were with us loved this event. If you want to be sure of attending the breakfast you need to sign up onboard, but sometimes it's not full and they do take walk ins. The story time is not to be missed either. The CD brought all of the kids up on the stage and worked as many of them into the story as she could.

there will be a sign up table somewhere when you get onboard

There should be a sign up table when you board-if not you can go to guest service. If you're interested in seeing what the breakfast is like---I'll leave a link to an album of when we brought our granddaughter on a cruise, pictures 74-77 show the parade and 174-187 show the breakfast (feel free to skip the rest). Just click the link--if you'd like to see any pix larger (the menu is shown), just click on the picture.

SUESS AT SEA

What a great review! Loved your presentation. And the pictures of Suess at Sea Breakfast were very informative. It gives an excellent idea what to expect. Thank you.

We bumped into said table right outside the bank of midship elevators

as you go towards the main pool.

 

She looked at us curiously (two mature, maybe-elderly ppl)

" You DO realize this is a kiddies thing?" she asked -lol

We assured her we were in it for a laugh,

since our kids had been reared on Dr. Seuss.

 

Cost us $5 each! lol

Go here to see all my pics of The Event - on Carnival Liberty. April 2015

You'll have fun and giggles. Guaranteed.

Somehow we even got involved in the parade

with us carrying banners and placards! see photo!

It ended up in the big theatre up front, where CD Felipe Couto read us stories......

The CD on Pride had us all chanting "the Cat in the Hat is on the loose" all the way from the Atrium to the theater.

I hope they have this on the Sunrise next month.  I would love for my granddaughters to experience this.

Now you say that

I vaguely recall we were chanting something similar!

 

I think we started right at the stern, on Deck 5 -Comedy Club?
and made our way along the main promenade

then down two decks in the atrium -and in to the theater on Deck 3!

[aknguyen]

One thing to note is that the food items come with copious amounts of sugar and food coloring unless you specify otherwise. I didn't realize each square of my waffle would be filled with red or blue icing. I didn't care for that. Now I know to ask for my items as they are served on a non-Seuss day.

I was walking around the ship on our Carnival Pride cruise two years ago and stopped in the lobby to watch the kids arriving in the atrium for the parade. One of the hosts came up to me, handed me a noisemaker, and said "You're in the parade." I grew up on Dr. Seuss, my sons grew up on Dr. Seuss, so I figured "Why not?" We ended the parade in the theater with a reading of "Cat in the Hat." It really was a lot of fun.

[Aplmac]

I'd do it again too

just for the photo opportunity!

 

Not to mention the pancakes I had.......

Signup on the Vista was where the dinner reservations are taken - 5th floor aft IIR. 

 

On the Magic, they had a table in the theater after the parade/storytime for the breakfast signup. 

 

Well worth the $5. 

 

It''s also a lot of fun seeing the kids order the green eggs and ham, then balk when they arrive. The parents end up handing over their breakfasts to the kids and get stuck with the green eggs. I order the regular omlette for my kid so I can enjoy my fillet of minion. (Minions are delish!)
