I am spending the morning on the beach in Grand Turk. I normally wouldn’t try to be one of the first off of the ship but I want to get to the beach as early as possible to get a lounger in a good spot.

The Chef’s Table is not something I ever planned on doing. I don’t typically enjoy spending a couple of hours at dinner–especially with a bunch of strangers.
Since I had a lot of onboard credit to use, I decided to use some of it on the Chef’s Table on Carnival…

Good morning. I got some much needed sleep. A solid 8 1/2 hours. Which is about my maximum.
We must be going through some rough waters. There’s a lot of movement, occasional BANGs, and my hangers are rattling.
On top of that my steward was vacuuming the hallway and I heard…

Super Bowl Sunday on Carnival Magic was just like any other sea day in the morning. They did have a few activities in the afternoon. Normally tonight would be elegant night. They moved that to tomorrow which is also a sea day.
They had Super Bowl Trivia and Super Bowl…
