Patty and Jeff, I'm really loving this review.... each night I read and look at the photo's and Say How the heck was this a month ago already? No I haven't pulled the trigger yet on 2016 I'm trying to pull the trigger for a 14 in Jan.... LOL I'm leaving for Fl on the 4th for some R@R with my God mother..... LOL While Mike still thinks about getting that hip done this year! Have a great next cruise, isn't that in Aug?

[gapearl]

I absolutely HAVE to make it back to Half Moon Cay one day. I can't believe I've only been once! :eek: The British Colonial Hilton looks like a nice place to spend the day. I'm glad you didn't hurt yourself on that fall. Are you sure it wasn't the Bahama Mamas? LOL :);)

[useyourwords]

Thanks for the great review! It's been fun to read along. I have never been to any of these places, except Nassau on a land trip. I NEED to get to HMC! Looks amazing!

The Enchantment of the Seas spins around……

 

 

This was the view of the port from our table during lunch…..

 

 

The Enchantment of the Seas is backing into her berth…..

 

 

And finally, all five ships are in port…..

 

 

Our lunch has arrived. The portions are huge. Patti had the turkey club sandwich…..

 

 

I had the jerked chicken wrap. Both of our meals were delicious!

 

 

To be continued…..

 

That Jerk Chicken Wrap was awesome, that is what I had for lunch that day too. I saw yours and saw that I could get it with fries and I was sold LOL

Hey Jamman! I love your reviews! Colorful commentary, informative, and great pictures :). In October, I'm going on my first cruise on Splendor and I am so excited about it! I have a question that I hope you or your wife can help me out with :). I've heard/read about folks getting some sort of weekly spa pass for about $99 to access some of the common areas (steam room, whatever that pool is, etc. etc.). Do you know anything about that? Where to get them and what they include? I've been all over the Carnival website but can't find it. Thanks for any help you can provide and thank you for taking the time to create such interesting and informative reviews!

Really enjoyed this and learned a few things first my first splendor voyage on Tuesday, one question does anyone know the minimum height for the slide my twins are 8 and anxious to try

Thanks for following along!! As for the spa pass and what it included, if you go back to post #23 on page 2 of this review, the answers are there.

Thanks for reading! I want to say 48 inches in regards to the slide, but I'm not 100% sure.

You don't even want to know what I had on my birthday night on Magic! :eek::eek::o

We’re heading north back to New York…..

 

 

We were up at 7am. I stepped out on the balcony to get a shot of the sunrise, but the sun was already pretty high in the sky…..

 

 

We are planning to head to the Sea Day Brunch again today, but first, Patti wanted to put some laundry together to send out this morning. So I took this opportunity to grab the camera and take a walk around. This is the aft omelet line…..

Ha! Thanks for the spa info. I will hereby remove "attention to detail" as one of my strengths :)

Thanks excited to leave next week

Thanks for reading! I want to say 48 inches in regards to the slide, but I'm not 100% sure.

 

The big slide minimum height is 42 inches to go down. My 4 y/o was right at 42 inches but the attendant would not let him go down for some reason (I don't think he would have gone by himself anyways). Your 8 y/o should be fine!

 

Jamman, I wanted to thank you for your awesome review! I read your other Splendor review when I was trying to decide to go on one of her sailings from Norfolk. She is a unique ship, not one of my favorites due to the outlandish decor, but I did like the sliding sunroof over the main pool which allowed us to use the pool in bad weather.

 

Hoping to make it back to HMC one year-only been there once!

Thanks they'll be excited

Love reading all your reviews, thank you for writing them. Look forward to meeting you and your family on the breeze soon and using my photo bomb skills to make your next review [emoji6]

[JennN]

I love reading - great job! Still here :) Making me excited for my first trip to HMC - we got a cabana as well. Thinking we will rent #9 - my wife doesn't like people that much (at least, in close proximity to us, hahaha).
