dltvermont Posted February 2, 2023 #177 Share Posted February 2, 2023 OK, Finally caught up. I was looking forward to another Jamman review and this one is even better as it is with the Spirit. We will be on her March 11th! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t been on the boards for a couple of days and really needed a Jamman review to get me through until we get to head out on Sunshine on Saturday, Glad to have you aboard, and for your kind words! Enjoy your cruise on the Sunshine! 16 hours ago, LaRue1975 said: I am thoroughly enjoying your review as usual, thank you! Super excited to see the Amber Cove Cabanas, you sold me on them in a previous review. I recently booked a back to back on the Celebration for May 2024 and the first thing I did was check for the cabanas and they were already available. I couldn’t get one it my cart fast enough, lol!. Oh, and I also have my Mahogany Bay Beach Cabana coming up in April thanks to you, can’t wait! Thanks for reading! We love the cabanas! We also have a Mahogany Bay Beach Cabana booked when we are there on the Celebration in April. Can't wait! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks yucky like the water at the beach where I live. We agree. That water doesn't appeal to us as well. 8 hours ago, TennesseeTater said: Still cruising!

Rare Jamman54 Posted February 3, 2023 Author #187 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Over on the pier, the pedi-cabs are lined up and waiting to take passengers back to the ship…..

Rare Jamman54 Posted February 3, 2023 Author #188 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Here are a couple of pool views….. We went back to the cabana and placed our lunch order with Nataly. In fifteen minutes, it was served piping hot. We had cheese quesadillas, spicy boneless chicken, and crab empenadas….. For the rest of the afternoon, we alternated between the pool and our deck. We enjoyed watching the zip liners pass right overhead….. We stayed to the bitter end. Where did all the crowds go? We paid our bill which was $86 + tip and said goodbye to Carlos and Nataly. I’m sure we will see you again soon! At the end of the pier, we found our man # 11 and he took us back to the ship…..

Rare Jamman54 Posted February 3, 2023 Author #191 Share Posted February 3, 2023 After we got showered and changed, we made our way to the Victoriana Theater for Deal or No Deal….. We bought three cards for $50. I really want to get back on stage and redeem myself. Tonight, Comedy Club Host Marcela is going to host the show. I guess she is being groomed to be a Cruise Director. She did a great job….. I wasn’t chosen for either game, but Addison here wound up with $100…. Here is the final Audience Board. Patti’s card won a bingo package….. We were hungry so we decided to head up to the Lido. Patti had a Southwest wrap from the Deli and made herself a salad….. I started with a meatball sandwich and fries from the Deli, but I was still hungry, so I grabbed some fried chicken and rice from the buffet….. Afterwards, Patti was tired from all the walking she did today and went back to the cabin. I went to the Alchemy Bar to hang out with Zora for a couple of hours before calling it a night. Here is tonight’s towel animal….. Coming up next: Another day, another cabana!!! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jamman54 Posted February 3, 2023 Author #196 Share Posted February 3, 2023 The Freedom approaches the dock at Grand Turk. There is still a section of the dock missing from the last hurricane….. These dock workers will help get the Freedom tied up….. We are docked by 7:45am. We leave the ship just after 8. Only the forward gangway is in use because of the missing section of the pier. Here are a couple of views of the Freedom….. To be continued…… 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jamman54 Posted February 3, 2023 Author #197 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Here’s another view of the Carnival Freedom docked in Grand Turk. We will be the only ship in port today….. Remember those pesky chair and umbrella vendors that used to clog up the beach in front of Margaritaville? They have been moved down the beach…… This is what the beach in front of Margaritaville looks like now….. I immediately head over to Margaritaville to check in for our cabana. Patti hangs around the Plaza for a bit before heading to Margaritaville….. These are the restrooms by the pool area…..
