For MLK Day weekend, we took off on a 4 night Cruise on the Carnival Paradise. This cruise was complimentary since I am travel agent. This cruise is tough to review. The big memory we will have from this cruise is that Glenn got food poisoning on the first night and we spent all the first day at Sea in the cabin. Luckily, he was feeling better by dinner, but we ended up heading to bed early every night since he wasn't 100%. I also felt a little crappy due to the food so it definitely wasn't one of our best cruises. It's a shame because we loved the ship and spent the first several hours talking about how great the ship was and we should take this cruise more often. There were a couple highlights:
We won Name that Tune in the Piano Bar on the first night - securing our Ship on a Stick. It would be the only activity we participated in.
I spent a lot of time on the final Sea Day enjoying the Serenity Deck pictured below while Glenn watched the Patriots Playoff game. The weather was gorgeous and it was really relaxing.
We got a day pass to explore Secrets Aura Cozumel. The pools were freezing, but we had a lot of fun and it was a good way to spend the day -even though I may had too much Mexico tequila.
Honestly, overall, the trip kind of sucked. We figure that since we travel so much - it can't all be rainbows and unicorns every time. Hopefully, in a few years, the sting will be gone and we'll look back more fondly or at least humorously on this trip!
