Zydecocruiser's Carnival Conquest April 21-28th, 2013 Picture Review

[nybumpkin]

near Cape Knox and Cape Kennedy (a couple of ready reserve cargo ships)

 

 

 

Military Sealift Command - civilian-operated ships under the Navy. They transport military equipment around the world. Not sure if these two have been active recently, though (doesn't look like it). Really enjoying this review and your Elation review.

 

When are you sailing on Legend?

Checking out the Toulouse Lautrec Lounge - most of the time just empty space

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Latin Band playing in the lobby

 

 

 

 

Casino doesn't wait for International waters when sailing from New Orleans

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think the first night Taste Bar is the best

Wonderful pictures. Thank you taking the time to share this with all of us.

After the Taste Bar, it must be dinner time!

 

 

 

Maitre d' Jan (sort of like Ian) from Poland recognized us, took one look at the table we were assigned and pronounced it no good, He quickly found us something more suitable and we enjoyed for the rest of the cruise.

 

 

The Tomato Soup

You really know how to torture a person :D;)

We love the coffee bar carrot cake. Is the cheesecake just as good?

Loving your review as always!

It's so interesting to see my cruise from a different perspective, and to see some of the same pictures I took from a different perspective. Plus I'm playing Where's Waldo? trying to see if I see myself or my husband in your shots lol. Great review as always! Can't wait to see more!

Ha, I thought I was the only one who did that. I did not see us in any thankfully- hehe. I still can't believe the cruise is over. :(

 

Thanks Sarge for doing a review. We did not take many photos.

I can't believe it's over either! Being back in the daily grind is such a shock to my system lol.

Sarge,

 

If everyone approached cruising with your attitude, there would be 99% less complaining and 100% more enjoying! Thank you so much for your many, many pictorials and your wonderful way of reflecting what a joy cruising actually is.

You make the (work) times away from the ships more tolerable. (Less than a month to go!)

Never tried the carrot cake but I hear others say they love it. I think probably everything there is great. :)

Oh, you might well be - I'm not posting all of my pictures.

Not yet, anyway? And you're welcome.

Thank you! I really don't understand how so many people who are so blessed, can complain so much. So I don't try to - I'm too busy enjoying life. It applies to so much more than cruising. :)

Love your attitude. That is exactly how I like to live. Life is so much better on the sunny side. :D

As for 2.0,I did a more in depth review, I think, from our November Conquest cruise, but this will have some, too.
