Panorama.  My new favorite

Jucy’s best no tomatoes. My favorite fast food crunchy taco. 
 

The shell is different. It’s bigger and not as crunchy. It breaks easily. I don’t know if it’s made from flour tortillas instead of corn or what. Then real meat. A lot of cheese. There’s some sour cream in there which I love on a taco.

 

If you follow Sid’s thread and remember my takeout rant from about a year and a half ago, you’ll appreciate the name.

 

 

I have some dear friends that live n Longview…. I’ll have to ask them about this place!!

I love these elevators.  If there are two people in the party you press it twice. That way the elevator calculates how many people are getting in and out.  Quite simple.  I was on the Panorama a few weeks ago, they worked perfectly.  The best elevator system I’ve seen on any ship, very little waiting. Never had to wait for several full cars to stop and move on.  Loved them and Vista Class is my new favorite class..  the elevators are one of the reasons!!  Booked on Horizon in July!

Yes!  Just did it for 7/23 sailing.  Booked 1 excursion, 2 dinners, wi-fi and ordered water to the room.  Simple, at check out it will show how much OBC you have and just choose that option.  Great feature 

I’m on the Horizon end of July..  same… airfare and hotels are double what I usually pay.  However my cruise was free through casino…so ok

Last week was about 2500..  48%

Royal just announced they also are rolling back mask requirements for the "vaccinated-only" venues onboard as of 2/15. C'mon, Carnival -- your turn!

 

 

And smoking is back in the smoking sections of the casino!  (RCL)

The Panorama also had 0 cases on board last week 

Just got off Saturday …. 9 am out of the cabin .  I walked off at about 9:30, close to the last group.  Got my luggage and was out of the terminal in 5-10 minutes.  Also, embarkation on 1/29, had 1 pm  heck in time.  Ship was 48% capacity, was enjoying a guys burger at 11:30.  Walked right on. 

I just got off Panorama a few hours ago.  Loved it!!  Last Saturday I had a 1 pm arrival time. (The first was 12 pm).  This week we were less than 50% capacity.  I got off shuttle at 11 am…. At 11:25 I was enjoying a guys burger. (Didn’t even know they opened that early).  At 1:15 cabins were ready, 1:30 my bag arrived.  One of the best cruises I’ve ever been on.

Mine disappeared too…. 

Not the 1/29 as of yet?

Ha! That is interesting. I guess they could put the keys in a plastic bag and hang it on the door knob. As for info... they don't give you info anymore - you take it from the hub app.

I did get a few things in mailbox on the Breeze, statement, casino invitation..  but not much else 

I was just given some information that there are no mailboxes on Panorama?  If not, where do they put our keys? Info etc?

Just got two new ones in mail today for my 1/29 sailing…. Both expire 10/23/2022… so seems the expiration date problem has been dealt with.

I think I’m good. This stuff is going to take up some space in the ole car. I already got my suitcase in there..and this time of year all my cold weather gear cause we get under 50 sometimes. It’s nice now. 60’s. We have highs in the mid-70’s all week. 
 

 

That’s perfect!!

I had no clue this existed.

 

That’s it!!!

My granddaughter, age 8, has that bedding set..  loves it..  can’t go wrong with anything unicorn for a 7 year old girl..  trust me!!

oh by the way, you are wonderful!  

Coco melon;  a tv show for toddlers.  Music, lessons etc.  The characters are everywhere.

Barbie Head:  it’s a large “head” for hair styling, makeup etc.  You’ll find them everywhere.

A seven year old girl is typically a size 7.

I don't have an end one on this one. I have the one next to the end one. Now on Freedom in Alaska I have a 4J on the end.

I also have the end one on the Freedom, port side, in July to Alaska!!  7206
 

 Very excited to hear about this cabin.  I have a 4J booked on Panorama in January.  (7208 on end, port side).  Always wanted to try one…. Looking forward to your thoughts on this!!!

Hasn't been a problem for Disney.  Of course not.  Disney doesn't have casinos!

Exactly!!!!    Compare fare prices of Disney with Carnival..   Carnival  has Casinos, Disney does not!   Carnival was started as a casino line… it’s actually the reason it exists.  Points proven..  

When I worked on board the brand new Carnival Tropicale ,  I was a Croupier..  (a multi-game casino dealer).  1982-1984..  I was 21 years old!

I’d like your opinion on something. 
 

When the casino opens mid-morning or whatever, do you think that’s a waste of time to gamble on slots? Or maybe you don’t play slots?

 

I’m asking because it seems that in the morning hours it is less crowded and also less likely to win.  Thoughts?

Possibly.  I like daytime gambling most and I now only play slots..  occasionally blackjack.  I seem to find the machines I like more in the day because it’s less crowded.   So I tend to do better in the day.   Also very late at night.  Slot machines are “set” with a chip that if you turned it off and turned it back on in a million years.. same hand will come up next..  time isn’t a factor…. But lots more play at night so more opportunity for that “random generator” to roll around.  I don’t know, it’s kind of a toss up
