Hubby and I took a Carnival cruise many years ago and this was one of the Ports of Call. We enjoyed a great lunch and the beautiful scenery of the island. I would love to take that cruise again. It was the only cruise I’ve ever enjoyed on the big cruise ships.

Linking up with a bunch of fantastic peeps from the blogosphere who host Wordless Wedne Ssday – Betty, Steve, image-in-ing, Zina, Xmas Dolly, Keith, Cathy, Sara, CatSynth, Diana, and Suzana.

      There were a few in the pool when we were there, but not this many. Fun island. 🙂

    Looks like a spring break party for adults, LOL! Mom has only done cruises in Scandinavia and once for two months to Australia and back, never to the Caribbean or warm places like that.

      There were two cruise ships there when we were there. Tons of old people enjoying themselves. 🙂

    I’ve ever been on one cruise–with girlfriends–and it was great. Can’t go with hubby cause he’d starve to death, he’s got so many food allergies, and isn’t eating all you want of anything and everything they serve part of the experience?!

      Sandee says:

      Hubby wants to go to Alaska, but we don’t want to cruise anymore. We would rather be on our own boat. 🙂

      Me too and we didn’t get in the pool We just had a nice lunch and people watched. 🙂

      Very few people were in the pool when we were there. It was a most beautiful place. 🙂

      It wasn’t on the day we were there. The grounds were most beautiful. 🙂

  4. Cecilia Upchurch says:

    We have only taken one cruise. May 2005 we flew into Fairbanks,Alaska took a 4 day ground trip ending in Whitter where we boarded the Dawn Princess to cruise 7 days down the inside passage. Hands down the best vacation ever. It was #2 on my bucket list, # 1 was seeing Elvis in person which we did in 1976
    Hugs Cecilia

    Interesting! I hope you get to go on that cruise again. Enjoy your day, Sandee.🤗

      Sandee says:

      No more cruises for us. Just on our boat. We would never cruise on the west coast. They treat you horribly. The east coast does it right. 🙂

    Cruises can be fun, however, a lot depends on the quality of the amenities and service. My favorite cruise was our Alaskan Cruise. Happy Wednesday!

      Sandee says:

      We were on Carnival and it’s okay. We did have a suite with a balcony, but the food was just so-so. 🙂

        Eugenia says:

        I’ve been on several cruises and the Alaskan cruise was the nicest and most elegant. The food was better than most, especially the chocolate night. Problem being we were in some rough seas during the chocolate night and many became ill, but not me! If the ship rocks and rolls, I just rock with it rather than fight it and I’ve never been seasick.

      When we cruised from San Diego to Hawaii I got sick. I was sick for a couple of months. That was our last cruise on a big ship. 🙂

  8. Wing Commander Basil & The B Team – UK – Well, now there's a question! Furstly and most importantly I'm a cat if mew hadn't already guessed. I got my Wing Commander status in September 2018 but that hasn't slowed me up at all! I tweet, Instacat, FB, Tumble & Pin too and now there's Basil TV on YouTube. All in all I'm a thoroughly Modern Cat; a cat of the 21st century, mew might say. My human & Purrsonal Assistant aka P.A. is Cathrine Garnell, and she writes books including a tale about my fictional alter ego, Basil the Bionic Cat. [See Books Page] I live in a multi-cat household, and mew can meet the rest of The B Team here most days of the week, as they all like a turn on the blog. I like mice, but then don't we all? I also like fresh tuna, chicken and prawns. I LOVE catnip, not in any excess I might add before mew jump to any wild conclusions. Thanks so much for dropping by, as we The B Team, love making new furriends, so do leave us a comment and say hi.
    Wing Commander Basil & The B Team says:

    The P.A. has always wanted to go on a cruise!

      You should at least try it once. I get food fatigue so the food turns me off pretty quickly. 🙂

      It was a most fun island. Beautiful place too. It rained to beat the band for about 10-15 minutes and we were the only ones with an umbrella. Then the sun came out and the clouds went away. 🙂

    We went there on one of our first cruises and had a fun time. We didn’t swim, I don’t like crowds and prefer the sea when we are in the Caribbean.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      The sea is most blue there. It was a great cruise and I would avoid this pool. Way to many folks. 🙂

    That looks lovely! We’ve only ever been on one cruise and that was for our honeymoon; we had a fabulous time but for some reason we’ve never thought of booking another one.

  16. Rosey says:

    My two grown boys have been on cruises. I have not been! I’m 50/50 on whether I’d want to go or not. When my students go, they come back with great stories. They all seem to love it. 🙂 Wishing you a wonderful day.

      I got so sick the last cruise we were on and I was done. They treated us badly too. We bought VIP and didn’t get VIP. 🙂

    A cruise would be nice but you have to pick your itinerary and ship with care. Some of them are just too big and overwhelming for me.

    Hope you and Mr. Zane get to cruise again soon!

      We won’t go on the big ships anymore. We like our little boat far better. 🙂

  18. Jen – Texas – My name is Jennifer, but my friends and family call me Jen. I live in the DFW area here in Texas. ​I am a 49-year-old mom of two not-so-little kids - T (22) and S (19). I have been married to my best friend and soulmate, Fabian, for 23 years. We share our home with three crazy hairballs named Korina, Tabitha, and Tumbledart, and a doggo named Zac. I love reading and started at a young age when first introduced to my mother's stash of Nancy Drew Mysteries. Then I developed an odd fascination for horror and became obsessed with Stephen King during my middle school years. It is still my favorite horror novel. I was in high school when the "romance" book bug took a bite. I read my first historical romance novel, Skye O'Malley, by Bertrice Small, and I never looked back. That was almost 30 years ago. I love history and the Dark Ages of Scotland and Britain, with Tudor England and Regency following close behind. I adore Jane Austen! My passion is still Historical Romance, although I will read just about any genre that strikes my fancy these days. I have been gaming since the days of Atari when I would sit and play Asteroids and Missile Command for hours, after homework, of course! I still recall my father getting our first computer and becoming enveloped in PC gaming with Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves and Oregon Trail. Consoles by Nintendo and the Play Station soon followed, and the rest is history. I introduced my children to gaming at a young age, and we have been gaming and playing together ever since. We mainly play PC games like Minecraft, Wizard101, Pirate101, Toontown Rewritten, and games on Roblox and Steam, but we also play on the Switch and PS4, too. ​ I have been online, in some form or fashion, building a website or sharing my thoughts and musings for quite a few years.

    I am pining to go on another cruise. I absolutely LOVE ships! Margaritaville is quite fun.We ate lunch there when we visited Grand Cayman and Jamaica. Hope you have had a great day!
