Sandi149 Posted March 20, 2008 Author #1326 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Can anyone tell me if there are vegiburgers at the grill? I think maybe, but can't swear to it. Anyone else know? They did have a nice arugula, roast peppers and mozzarella on focaccia bread at the deli which was very good and the room service menu had a delicious veggie and mozzarella also on focaccia.

serene56 Posted March 20, 2008 #1327 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Can anyone tell me if there are vegiburgers at the grill? I have not seen them on the menu-- but there is no chicken or steak on the menu and I know you can order those. IF they do have them you might have to wait a bit for one.

Sandi149 Posted March 22, 2008 Author #1328 Share Posted March 22, 2008 thanks sorry to be a pain but with 4 kids any way we can save money so we can enjoy our cruise that much more is always a plus:) Ok...my friend emailed me back and she stayed in the Homewood Suites in Edgewater, NJ.

ellenw Posted March 22, 2008 #1329 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Someone asked in an earlier posting about getting docs, and were told they can print them if they sign up for edocs. You need to use Explorer for printing the docs. I use Firefox for my browser, and wasn't able to print. Actually had to resort to reading the tutorial! We leave on May 9. First trip on Miracle, and first time on Carnival. Really enjoying all the posts out here to get me ready for our trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitown cruisers Posted March 23, 2008 #1332 Share Posted March 23, 2008 anyone stay in Cabin 8124 Any info please Cabin 8124 (8H OSTW) 185/40 sq ft Beds: twin/king rab:0 View: window and standard balcony connecting balconies: no TV; telephone; 110 AC current; individual climate control; hair dryer; wall safe; minibar; 3-closets; shower; sofa and coffee table We were in 5106 thru 5112.......and I thought this was a fabulous location. We used the front elevator banks to go to the desired deck (9, 3 or 2) to get where we wanted to go.....REAL convenient. You are under part of the spa area of the lido deck so it should be fairly quiet. And only 3 cabins down from the elevator (again quiet and convenient). You can walk the notched cooridor to get aft, but it's not as nice. When you go for a quick up for the lido the first pool you come across is the non-band/stage pool. If they are playing music, you can still hear it but it won't be as in your face.......this is where we always set up camp. If I go on a Spirit class again....I'll certainly try to book the same again. The view of your balcony from the deck above the bridge........no privacy issues (you are far enough back) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhealsmom Posted March 25, 2008 #1334 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Hi there, we have 6152 & 6154. Has anyone stayed in either of these cabins? Can the balconies be opened up? Will there be room in 6152 (8E) for the twin beds to remain seperate -- and a crib set up? We have a special needs son and are taking my sister along on this trip as his attendant - so of course the beds are not going to be together... but, along with my sister --- there will be her 17 month old daughter. I have a feeling that baby will end up in with us (which is fine) --- just would like to kind of know what options are available.

Will there be room in 6152 (8E) for the twin beds to remain seperate -- and a crib set up? TIATracey the beds can be seperated= On one side of the bed notice there is a night table-- what happens is the beds get seperated and that night table is put in the middle. (IF you get crib-- they are more like pack and plays- we used the sofa which worked out better. (our baby was 18 months) remember that you can take your under 2 to the camps at noon so they can jump around and play with their toys and equipment. Tracey= make sure your agent marks it on your reservation to seperate the beds. IF you get to your cabin and they are not-- leave the steward a note tellim him/her of your wants. (on the first day the stewards are delivering luggage so you might not see them until later.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AAAAmerican Posted March 25, 2008 #1336 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Hi Garden State Neighbor! On the obstructed views. Yes the Life Baots on the ships do obstuct the views. We have been on the ships before and had that twice. It was ok in many ways the Doors opened and let in Salt Air and Sun (No Salt Added) ..which was fun. We even had a Parying Mantis leve with us from mid-town and come back out on the L.B. rigging too. We are looking at June again now on one.;) At the lowered cost basis for a Bac. Guar. it is a good choice to save. As any cabin on a cruise with and/or without views is so much better than none and bad news..:cool: Please indulge me - I can't get the search to work. We have been on the Legend and the Spirit and are booked on the Miracle in June! Because of the cost I booked the balcony guarantee. What's the worst case scenario (obstucted view) with these balconies? Having a lifeboat at your feet? Please tell me it wouldn't be in front of the balcony.[/quote I'd like to know this too. We always select THE CABIN we want. We are going on Princess in October and selected "our cabin" but it was booked and we also have a balcony gty. :confused: :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crusin Karen Posted March 26, 2008 #1342 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Geez, how aggravating. Call back and ask to talk to the manager. Tell him what you are doing, if you can park your car there for the WEEK YOU ARE ON THE CRUISE and if yes, what are the arrangements you would have to make to get from hotel to cruise terminal. Matter of fact, ask him to make them for you! Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandi149 Posted March 26, 2008 Author #1346 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Ok....I received an email back from my friend and this is what she said. take the edgewater ferry. The hotel has free breakfast and shuttle to the ferrys. Just a few bucks tip for the driver. When we got back from the cruise and were at the ferry dock we called them and they picked us up as well, pretty good deal. They have parking underground that is for the hotel/mall area and had no trouble with us leaving our car ( which was there 9 days ) I would just have them confirm that they will still do that, but you didnt need a pass or anything to do so, it is all free park where you want parking.
