Carnival cruise pt 2
The Carnival Cruise Dream is very nice.
The lido deck has a movie screen, two pools, and a tiny kiddy pool play place.
They have a mini golf course, and a small track but those are so windy.
We ate in the Scarlet room for dinner. Our server was real slow and never came back, so we only ate in the dining room twice. The food was ok in the dining room. I had heard so much about how great the food is, and how you can get as much as you want. I am a foodie so I was excited for some good food. I was very disappointed in the food on the cruise.
The food in the buffet area was ok. I like the omelet station and mongolian barbecue section. That food was fresh and good. I liked the section where you could get Indiand food and the pizza place.
The room service was good you just had to tip for room service. The food was included in the cruise price.
I was not impressed with the desserts either.
We did eat at the steak place which is an extra fee per person, and it was totally worth it. For the extra price you get amazing food. That is what I expected on the rest of the ship. You get a starter, salad, main dish, side, and dessert at the steak place. The food was honestly amazing. We did that several nights.
We went to see an adult comedian show and it was good. We went and saw a regular show the first night and it was ok. We did not see any others.
Our time was spent relaxing. We went to the hot tubs on the side of the ship and rested in our room. We turned on the tv for 30 minutes the whole week. We sat out on the balcony and had some wine.
I did play in the casino a bit and that was nice also.
Next time I will post about Nassau...

Carnival Cruise pt.1
We just went on a Carnival Cruise in May. We went on a 7 day cruise. It was amazing. I am going to post about it in several posts. It was an awesome trip and there is a lot to mention.
We were on the Carnival Dream. It was a seven day cruise that went to Nassau, St. Thomas, and St. Martin.
Before we went on the cruise we had never been on one. We wanted something different and fun. I had never thought about where we would want to stay on the boat or anything. I now realize there are a lot of things to look at.
We ended up getting an amazing room, but honestly I did not know if would be.
We were on deck 2 which is just above the water. It was awesome. We had a cove balcony. It is right above the water, so you are right there. You can see the water moving and it was amazing. The balcony part has metal around it, I think it is nice a private. It is shaded also. So nice and relaxing. The other balconies are up higher and you are no where near the water, and when you look down you see stuff from the ship. The lower ones are right on the water and much nicer. The higher ones are really hot also and not shaded.
we were mid ship which was nice also. I noticed at dinner in the back of the boat you could feel so much shaking. I think mid ship was amazing. Also I would stay away from the elevator so it is not noisy. I heard other people complain that the lido deck was right above them, and they were woken up at 5 am with people moving chairs and noise. I had not thought about it, but I would check and see what is above and below your room before you book it also.
I will post more about food and functions on the ship tomorrow.
