Carnival Sunshine Naming Ceremony and Inaugural US Cruise

Sarge I enjoy your reviews especially your photos. I see that you take a lot of photos in the showroom. I have tried also but have been accosted by crew that told me that it is prohibited to take photos for copyright legal reasons. How do you do it? We were asked to give up our photos on the Splendor two weeks ago.

I generally try to follow the rules and if they say no photography I usually don't.

In any event, I also usually try to be unobtrusive - e.g. not use a flash or block the views of other.

I don't notice all that copyright jazz on other cruise lines so not sure how accurate that is, anyway.

Believe it on not, once or twice I've been told to knock it off. They have been enforcing more in recent times.

Welcome to Sea Day 1

The view from our window

Time to try the Sea Day Brunch (formerly Punchliner)

An omelet with a side of non-hockey puck hash browns. and it looks like a bahama mama, too.

I'm not sure about this gobbledygook - I'll guess huevos rancheros with a side of sausage

My hey pork chop!

and a double chocolate brownie desert

On sea days, you can grab some lunch at the Taste Bar

Menu varies sea daily

I messed up and was a little late to the cooking demonstration in the steakhouse. Those are usually good for a lunch made of tasty samples. Alas, no room at the inn. I did insist on at least taking a picture.

Shore Excursions desk

People actually read in the library part of the Library Bar. Who knew?

Cherry on Top

Liquid Lounge

Funnel and mini-me funnel

Yep - partitions are always there

You take really nice pcitures.

Good morning Sarge, hope you are having a great day! Can you tell me if there are magnifying mirrors either in the bath area or the any other area of the cabins? We have an aft balcony, if that makes a difference.

PS, this time next week I will be relaxing pool side with a fru fru drink in hand! :D:D:D:D:D:D

Hello Sarge,

Wonderful pictures and review.

 

 

Looks like we settled

 

 

One of my pet peeves are those blue cushions on the clean sheets. Wonder how clean they are.

They did not have magnifying mirrors in the bathrooms (not on the Destiny either)

They no longer had the full length mirrors behind the closet doors.

We were lucky. We got to go to the Liquid Lounge for our Muster Drill....seats and all:)

Mine was on deck. I did notice that there were not enough lifeboats and that life rafts could be used. Probably because of the extra passengers. As we were headed across the Atlantic I kept that snippet of information to myself.

I think there are probably enough. They changed out some of the smaller lifeboats for the humongous ones. They certainly increased lifeboat capacity.

Cushions? I thought those were for shining shoes? :D
