Guess you could saay I am a past cruser I went on the Miracle back on 10/05 and was cased by Hurricane Wilma. That was my first curse.

vfb2girls Posted January 26, 2008 #702 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Sixty Six, when are you cruising? We are going to be on the November 30th sailing, my husband and myself are celebrating our 25 wedding anniversary on this cruise. How lucky are we that our anniversary falls on a sea day. This will be our second cruise and we are so looking forward to sailing on the Legend. From what I have read it is a great ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be her first. (evil little laugh) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vfb2girls Posted January 26, 2008 #704 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Trust me 66, once your wife experiences a cruise she will be hooked! Both my husband and myself loved our Alaskan cruise this past summer and just can't wait until our next cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubamargie Posted January 27, 2008 #705 Share Posted January 27, 2008 For those of you who have recently sailed on the Legend, what time did you actually arrive in Cozumel? Our itinerary says we don't arrive until 10 am, however the Cozumel Insider port info site says it arrives at 7 am. What pier did you arrive at? Thanks for the info.

All those port times are on ship time. The ship remains on EST. You'd need to adjust for the different time zone and daylight savings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellybutton Posted January 27, 2008 #707 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I was reading this on a review site of the Legend. I didn't realize there was a CO2 lounge for the kids already. Is there? "Camp Carnival is centered on a 2,400-square-foot enclosed play area on Deck 5, away from adult activities. The supervised program, divided by age groups, offers children's activities for ages 2 to 15 with a bottom-of-the-sea theme. Tunnels connect different play areas. The Gigabytes game arcade is on Deck 4; Teens have their own CO2 lounge on Deck 10." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great! I'm interested in finding out what else was done during dry dock. Does it look like a new ship with new carpeting and paint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KruznKel Posted January 27, 2008 #711 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Great! I'm interested in finding out what else was done during dry dock. Does it look like a new ship with new carpeting and paint? Too bad they couldnt do a smaller version of those big screens on the lido.. I am sure they could if they had the right engineers:D:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schndr Posted January 27, 2008 #712 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Well, since we've not been on the Legend before, it's hard to tell if she's in better shape than before. Our cabin does not have new carpet, but the public areas that we've seen so far look spiffy. That's probably where they put their efforts and $$'s. Typing this on my blackberry, so won't have service after a few more hours. Oops, time for muster drill in a few mins...later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eclipsethecat Posted January 28, 2008 #721 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Hello Everyone, I am a first time cruiser and I have several questions-thanks in advance for your help! 1) Do the rooms have a safe? 2) Can you open the fridge to put pop and waters that you bring with you in them? 3) Are there usually lockers at the beaches on the carnival shore excursions? If not, what do you do with your valuables when you are on the tours? 4) Anything you wish you would've known your first time? 5) Has anyone ever taken sandwiches with them on the tours from the ship? Do they package them so you can take them with you? (Trying to save some money!) 6) Liquor- sneaking on; good idea or bad? Do they throw it away if they find it? 7) What if I don't want to use my funpass- should I still sign up for it? I think I have to in order to get fully pre-boarded! 8)For the people who flew into Tampa and went straight from the airport to the port, what service did you use? Taxi? Van? Etc. Any help would be great! Thanks! Thanks again for all of your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevnick0814 Posted January 28, 2008 #722 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Not a question but a request: Outside of CanadianEh's review (thanks), where are the reviews from last week's trip (1/20-27)? It is always good to get multiple people's views. C'mon guys!! We need our fix. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malibujase Posted January 29, 2008 #723 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Does anyone know if there is wireless internet access on the legend? I believe there is a business center or internet cafe but, wasn't sure if that was the only place you could get access. Also, does anyone know how much it is per minute? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
man of many coats Posted January 29, 2008 #724 Share Posted January 29, 2008 No. the "special dinners" do cost extra. you also need to make a reservation. I personally think your better off in the regular dining room. Don't get me wrong, I love fine dining, thats why I go in the regular dining room.
