What’s in it?

 

I'm not sure but it is 100% alcohol -vodka, gin, lemon juice and other liquors from what I remember. The bartenders will know. I think it is topped off with sparkling wine.

They even have a kids favorites section. There is something missing though. When I was dating a girl with a young child, we couldn’t eat anywhere that didn’t have a corn dog on the kids menu.

Ice carving was frustrating. Since this deck is totally taken by two pools and a water park..they did that in such a small area that like 20 people could see it.

 

 

 

How curious - on ours he did it up on the fountain deck thingy in the middle.  I think we ended up with a fish carving.  Must have been a reason why they had to switch locales.

The cruise line that first offers muffalettas will hit a home run.

That would’ve made more sense. People were trying to watch from there. They didn’t even get it on the big screen.

They just did that same thing on the Carnival cruise I was just on. There was a ramp leading up to the platform that they could have wheeled the ice up to but they put it right in back of the pool. You couldn't see a thing.

So the far pool and the middle water park  are all kids. This pool has about 3-5 adults and the rest kids. It feels like a summer cruise here. Not November before thanksgiving break. 
 

[Saint Greg]

Think I’ll check out the retreat. Because there is no water park, arcade, they have a putting green instead of mini golf and the basketball court has pickleball 24/7 so all of the kids on the ship are right here right now.

 

[Saint Greg]

That’s better. Who would’ve thought Princess needs an adults only area? I get it now.

 This feels like Carnival Elation July 4, 2014 my first cruise we had 1,000  kids on a small ship back when the water slide was in the middle of lido deck. Now when I cruise there’s usually 300-500 spread out between kids clubs, water park, arcade, basketball, mini golf, pizza in the back not middle…etc.

Nope, nope, nope, no. There were more kids on the Alaska cruise than I had expected there to be.

More on my than expected on my TA but it wasn’t mayhem on the lido. They even have their library one deck above lido outside on that ship.  
 

Alaska who cares? We had like one full sea day. I’d be in port all day most days.

I had to tell this guy Baja three times. For the most part saying the full deck name eliminates the b, d, e all sounding the same issue…but not this time. Baja xxx. Baja? Yes Baja xxx. Baja? Baja xxx

Since COVID happened, lots of parents decided to home school their kids, and never looked back.

 

Makes it much easier for cruising not being a slave to the school schedule.

That’s how it was on my Carnival Panorama cruise last month, so many kids on board.
