I really enjoyed reading your review. My DH and I are going on the Miracle in September 17, 2016. We have been on two other cruises, Western Caribbean and Alaska. The Spirit Class ship, Liberty for Alaska was really our favorite as well. Seemed like the Freedom at the Caribbean had everything up front and we walked a lot. Good for me, I lost weight on that cruise but DH gained. Yep, he ate more as well. :)

We are in our late 50's and also not brave to go on our own so we are taking advantage of the excursions offered by Carnival. Even though they are short and sweet, it's just right for us because we enjoy spending time on the ship.

We are getting our favorite cabin, Aft View Extended Balcony on the 6th deck. Your mentioning of the vibration brought back memories of the Liberty, which did the same thing, but we liked the slight vibration for sleeping. As for the cabinets, found a piece of paper and wedged that in, remedied the squeak. HAHAHA!

Thanks for posting the wonderful pictures, especially off your balcony. Made me so excited for September to come. Don't want to hurry our summer but it's sure hard not to, especially with another cruise in our future. :p

Couldn't resist this thread. Here are a few from Alaska this last September on the Spirit. The weather and view from our Aft Balcony was spectacular! And - don't forget the calming churn of the propellors! :p Two cruises, two Aft cabins. We are hooked on them.
