Hockey Addict Posted November 12, 2008 Author #152 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I loved my towel family. I'm like a big kid... I'm bummed that I didn't get a family photo of them! :D The sushi was fun. I'm so glad Greg got the pics of it! I can't wait 'til October. I'm going bonkers already!

CruiznWithHubby Posted November 12, 2008 #154 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I loved my towel family. I'm like a big kid... I'm bummed that I didn't get a family photo of them! :D The sushi was fun. I'm so glad Greg got the pics of it! I can't wait 'til October. I'm going bonkers already! sigh, I wanted a family picture too,,,,,and DH kept touching them, and EVERY time he touched them, they would fall apart,,,,I could move them, but he would destroy them,,, My youngest DD wanted us to bring one home,,,,of course we couldn't so we bought her the book,,,,,,,,and now she makes them at home :) Holly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoonerOne Posted November 12, 2008 #155 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I just read your entire review, excellent! Loved your pictures. So glad you had such a good time, I know the feeling:D I'm counting the days, 94 to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeans*Fanatic Posted November 12, 2008 #156 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Here's the link to all the pics.... I almost fogot... I'm still tagging some and flipping some around... they are all in order except the first few... http://s476.photobucket.com/albums/rr125/HockeyAddict13/Our%20First%20Cruise/ The wind tunnel as we call it is on the Sun deck. Walk to the bow of the ship on either side past the putt putt and there is a walkway to go out front. The wind is VERY strong at times. Especially as you first walk out. One night Steve was leaning forward with his arms out and the wind kept him from falling forward. Then when you go to leave there the wind PUSHES you out! It's pretty cool. I love your pics!!!!!!!!

Sandytoes Posted November 13, 2008 #158 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Here comes more people!! FlipFlop and her DH (they are both hockey fans too and he wore his hockey baseball cap for sailaway) Moni... hey hey the gang's all coming now! We chit chatted, ordered more DOD's... this is when we met G-Men. Steve's new buddy. G-Men is awesome. 90% of our drinks were brought by G-Men. He's hilarious! So cool... he has 5 more month for this tour and then he will be going to another ship. He didn't know which one yet. Great Review!!! :) Great Shots!!! Love the Drinks!!! :p Yum!!!!

Hockey Addict Posted November 13, 2008 Author #159 Share Posted November 13, 2008 The best part about that pic is those were OUR drinks!! :D NamVet.... I wish I could.... I will write that one down and keep it in mind if we can do 2 cruises next year! All I do is think about the cruise ALL the time. When I'm not thinking about it, I am thinking about next years cruise! I think I am a Hockey Addict and a Cruise Addict... I told Steve last night that I like Cruising more then Hockey now!!! Trust me.... I didn't think I would like ANYTHING more then Hockey! Thanks for all the kind words guys, I appreciate it! I'm glad you like the pics... I love taking them!

crusinpsychRN Posted November 13, 2008 #160 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I'd never considered going out of Jax or on the Fascination but after your review I'd surely consider it. Great review and laughs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTribeFan Posted November 13, 2008 #161 Share Posted November 13, 2008 The only DOD I get is the Funship Special on that first afternoon (just after I've stuffed myself with my first lunch on board). I'm going to track down G-Men and tell him about the glowing review and the great pics you posted. I haven't checked, but did you scan and upload the capers along with the pics? I pretty much know the routine by now, but love to glance through them anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey Addict Posted November 13, 2008 Author #162 Share Posted November 13, 2008 My fax/scanner isn't hooked up to my puter. Punki said she would get her DH to scan them... I'll send her a email to remind her.... It would be so cool if you run into G-Men. He's everywhere.... I'm sure you will! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missymac Posted November 13, 2008 #163 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Thanks for your review. Although we will be sailing on another ship, it was fun reading how enjoyable yours was :). Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamasue Posted November 13, 2008 #164 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Steph..... you have a childlike enthusiasm that is wonderful!!!! Your excellent review reminded us of our first cruise (Valor). Your pics are excellent..... thanks for keeping me entertained for the last 2 hours !!! Your review is the best I have seen since Falkcor posted his excellent review of the Destiny recently!! Steph.... never lose your attitude.... it's great!!!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbhcw Posted November 13, 2008 #165 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Steph, just a great review and wonderful pictures!!! I will also try to find G-Man and tell him he is a star!!!, and the waiters too!!! We have a special friend Kurni, that we met on the Fantasy several years ago and we still stay in touch with him. There is nothing like the staff on a Fantasy class ship. For us they consistently do a better job than any other class of Carnival ship I've been on and actually any other cruise line:) I think you have many years of cruising ahead of you:D Go for it:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obx_fintoo Posted November 14, 2008 #166 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Steph, this was a great reveiw! You mentioned all the important things I need to know in 6 short days!!! :D I will be looking for G-men as soon as I step on board. I'll tell him you said Hey!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homeofthedogs Posted November 14, 2008 #167 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Steph - I too will look for G-man and your waiters and tell them you said "hi". Thanks for everything!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisenGoddess Posted November 15, 2008 #168 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Steph, geeze I feel like I know ya after reading all 9 pages here. We're somewhat neighbors but we're in Brunswick :) Great review, I felt like I was there right with ya, what great memories you have and your pictures are awesome! We were on the Fascination years ago, 2001. I think we just might give her another try next year. Thanks so much for your review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey Addict Posted November 17, 2008 Author #169 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Thanks guys!! We miss our buddies more and more each day! G-Men's real name is Igede! He tells ya to call him G-Men... and he does roll his R's.. Drrrrrinks... there's a couple of them that do that. He's from Indonesia. Charnel and Samson are from India! Maaaan... can I go with you guys?? I WANNA GO TOOOOOO!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sylvasta Posted September 27, 2009 #170 Share Posted September 27, 2009 I had to re-vive this thread....I LOVED your review and your pics were great too! I have an opportunity to go on this ship next March (2010) and I've been a little nervous about going to this type of class of ship. All of our other Carnival cruises were on the Conquest ships, and we were even looking to book the Dream as soon as we can get a chance. But there is a group cruise that I am really interested in going on, on the Fascination. I don't think we would have even have looked at sailing her if it wasn't for this group cruise. But it sounds like it will be a great cruise, and the service sounds great too! :D Thanks so much again for taking the time to write a great review!!
