It has been 4 years since my last cruise but got one booked in April! So I will be living vicariously through your review to help tide me over til then.🤣 Glad to have you along for the ride! It won't be long until you are back at sea. 😎 12 hours ago, pirate4me2 said: Hey, a campground! I think I need to haul Monty, my home, down there next time I cruise from Port Canaveral! 😂 How awesome would that be? Just not during hurricane season…I can’t have my home blow/wash away. Hmmm, I’d have to figure out something for KatieKat the CampingCat too… That sounds like a great plan! 😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staying in an aft extended balcony cabin on Deck 11. 😛 I think I can see your cabin! Won't be long for you now. 😎 1 hour ago, ShakyBeef said: It looks like something ancient, ugly, possibly alien, and definitely carnivorous hatching from its egg. I would advise you to not be sitting there when it finishes hatching. That thing is gonna be hungry. I'm adding my appreciation to that of all the other here. I always enjoy your reviews and Miss Patti's pictures so much! This is the same itinerary we did (twice) on our last cruise, a B2B on Elation in January 2020 (although the second leg missed both ports due to winds or waves and we ended up at Nassau). So long ago. I'm looking forward to seeing the ports again. Thanks for taking us along! That thing is scary looking. Always glad to have you along with us! 😎 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelkel2 Posted January 29, 2023 #130 Share Posted January 29, 2023 I’m finally caught up! We just got off the Mardi Gras yesterday, so I was a little behind. But I’ve been waiting for this review. We had one of those L shaped cabins on the liberty years ago. Did you like it? Thanks again for another awesome review! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s time to get muster out of the way. Our muster station is “G”, which all the way aft on the starboard side on Deck 4. We cut through the Chic Restaurant on the way back there. This is the restaurant used for Your Time Dining (YTD)….. After muster we head up to our cabin to drop off our carry-ons. The cabin isn’t ready yet, but we meet our cabin steward, Agung, and let him know we’ll be leaving our carry-ons in the closet. No problem. We’re getting hungry, so we head up to the Lido buffet on Deck 9, which is called the Freedom Restaurant. Here is today’s buffet menu and carving station….. We decided to go to the Ol’ Fashioned BBQ up on Deck 10….. Here is my plate….. Here is Patti’s plate….. Patti had gone down to the buffet to make a salad, and she brought me back a bowl of jambalaya….. To be continued….. Dare I bring back "Plate Gate" 😝 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to the 8:30 PG comedy show. Let’s meet the comedians for this cruise….. I arrive for the show about a half hour early and grab a seat in the back at the bar. I get my standard Punchliner drink….. Marcela, the Comedy Host, gets the show started….. This show features Jersey, and the audience immediately gets into it….. He was very funny even though it was a PG show. I can’t wait to see his 18+ show! I made my way to the Lobby bar for a couple of drinks before calling it a night. When I got back to the cabin Patti was already there. No luck at bingo tonight. Coming up next: It’s GREAT to be back at sea day!! Do you and Patti get the Cheers package? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jamman54 Posted January 30, 2023 Author #144 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Day # 5 - (January 8th) - Fun Day at Sea # 1. We were up to a sunny and much warmer day. The seas are fairly calm. Here is the view from our balcony looking forward and aft…… Here are today’s “Fun Times”…… We are not planning on eating breakfast this morning since we’ll be going to the Diamond Event later on this morning. The first order of business is the Morning Show, “The Wave”, in the Victoriana Theater. I’m going to get a coffee up at the Coffee Bar at the back of the Freedom Restaurant on Lido Deck, and then meet Patti there. Patti arrives early and gets theses shots of the Victoriana Theater….. The stage is set for “The Wave”…… To be continued…….. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jamman54 Posted January 30, 2023 Author #145 Share Posted January 30, 2023 “The Wave” begins, starring our Cruise Director, James Love, and Comedy Host Marcela…… They are later joined on stage by the shopping expert Monica. She has a new title, “Carnival Insider”…… Afterwards, I head up to the Red Frog Rum Bar to have a few beers with my new buddies. Patti is going to check out the shops and take some more pictures around the ship. She gets these of the Carnival Freedom’s trophy cases….. This is the entrance to the mid ship Chic Restaurant…..
