LIVE from the AMAZING Breeze....join me?

[summercruisin']

Here I am fully LIVE from the AMAZING Carnival Breeze, and I am inviting you to join me through your computers...you can thank me later :p. We are having a rough and unscheduled day at sea (I’ll explain later) today, but life is good when you are on a ship in the Caribbean, no matter. Live steel drum music is playing on the Lido deck, and I'm about to head back up there to sit in the sun soon. I’ll start a real review, but if you are one of those who looks for the short and sweet ones, this is not for you! I’m a true Southern girl, and we like to take our time and savor the stories. This is true not only for reviews, but also for giving directions, cooking a meal, and intimate kisses :p. Now, don’t get too excited, because I am semi-notorious for starting and NOT finishing reviews. *sorry!* But, maybe, with your encouragement, this one will get done. Then again, once the real fun gets started…..who am I kidding?? I probably will NOT be thinking of you sitting at home! *sorry again!*

 

Questions? Ask away!

[KroozFoolz]

Looking forward to whatever you share - I always enjoy your reviews, finished or not. How many in your party this time?

[soccersharon]

Awesome! Sailing the Breeze next month :) Looking forward to your posts.

 

Did you say "live" steel drums. That's great!

I was on the Breeze lays August and loved it. Going again this January for a Super Bowl cruise with a group of 20. They actually have a live steel drum band now??? Enjoy your cruise

You are on a cruise get off their terrible wifi and go cruise! Post reviews afterwards!

Awww....thanks, Kroozfoolz! Just my little family of 4 this time!

And, the live steel drum music is not a band....just one guy with a steel drum and a keyboard. He sounds pretty good, though! Better than the recorded DJ music.

And, you got it, aaron3219! :D The wifi IS terrible, and the sunny deck is calling me!

 

Here are a few pics off my balcony for now...

We are sailing on the Breeze in February for the first time. Can't wait!! Looking forward to "sailing" with you on this review. Keep us updated.

 

Thank you and enjoy your cruise:)

I'm tagging along! Breeze is my favorite ship, I want to go back on her soon.

[Mr305]

I'll be on the Breeze soon, looking forward to your review and tips. WiFi is one of the things I'm thinking about doing for the upcoming cruise, how bad is it?

[bibbysnow]

We will be on the Breeze in less than two weeks. Can't wait!! Which cove balcony are you in?

[KPfromCT]

Wow! The water DOES look a little crazy.

You guys missed Grand Turk?:mad::mad:

Hopefully the weather improves for you.

We just did this itinerary on 7/5, and what I found was that water was rougher around the Dominican, Curacao, and Aruba.

I expected it to be like glass down there.

Not sure why. lol

Enjoy!!!!!

We are in cove balcony 2258. It is right beside the front elevators (RIGHT beside.....too close, if you want any privacy when you open your door!). The seas are still picking up...whitecaps everywhere! Too windy to comfortably hang out on upper decks, but we are getting an amazing show down here!

 

I would start posting my review with pics, but the wifi works much better on my ipad than on my pc (which is where I've started writing and saving pics :rolleyes:), so you'll just have to wait a little! Sorry!

 

Our itinerary got switched around because of hurricane Bertha. We were notified as we got on board. The good news is we are not planning to miss any ports :D.

 

I'll be back in a while to update and to try to post some pics.

Oh wow! our cabin when we sail in Nov. is the exact same except on the opposite side of the ship!

Is it noisy due to the elevators being so close?

[Dgshooter]

I'll be in a cove room in October. Looking forward to your review.

I see that you went on the Breeze and sailed to Nassau, Ocho Rios and Grand Turk. This is the cruise we are taking. Can I ask what you did in Ocho Rios? We can't seem to figure out what to do. We can't do anything too extreme since my husband just had hip surgery recently. We are sailing in February. Any info you can give would be great. Thank you

[Seago2]

Niiiiiice, I love a good live-from! So glad you took the time to whet our appetites! Come back and give us more soon :)

Have a great trip! We decided to go to an all inclusive resort for the day as we didn't see any excursions that we could agree on. We wanted to get off the ship though and see the island some. We used Jamaica For A Day and went to Sunset Grand. It was great, the resort had a beach, pools, water slides, and lunch and drinks were included. The shuttle that took us back to the port offered to drop us off at a good shopping area right near the port so we did that and got our souvenirs. We really enjoyed it.

[PathfinderEss]

Love live reports, thanks for taking us along on your cruise.

[tampabaytom]

Thanks for the report!

Was that thru Carnival? We are looking at maybe doing a resort or just staying on the ship after doing some shopping. Thank you for the input :)

Thanks for the review. Looking forward to reading more. Have fun!!!
