As I’m sure I’ve mentioned before, this was my first Carnival cruise as a Platinum member. We were told there were only twelve parties onboard (including us) that had Platinum status. I will talk about some of the perks we enjoyed as Platinum guests: VIP Check-in: Probably one of the best perks. We were able to [...]

This is the last photo post of my review. Just a couple more random images I decided to share. A picture of most of the ship on the first day. It would have been a good picture if the camera strap didn’t get in the way… Oh well. A picture of the water taken from [...]
This part of the review will have to sections. The first section will cover disembarkation. The second section will cover what happened after disembarkation. Disembarkation We opted to do normal disembarkation this cruise. For the past few years, we’ve done self-assist, where we carry off our own bags. This time, however, we chose to have [...]

I wanted to share some more pictures with you, so here we go! This was a great “bow” picture of our Miracle. I think this was taken in San Juan. Here’s a picture of one of the pool areas (mid-ship) on the Miracle. It was always quite crowded. I don’t like swimming in those pools, [...]

First I will talk about the staff in general. After that, there are a few people I’d like to mention specifically. The staff on the Miracle were very nice. People often complain about rude or unhelpful crew on their cruises. Not the case on our cruise! Every crew member we came in contact with was [...]

This part of the review will probably be short because I don’t have a lot to say about the ports. We didn’t really do much at the ports, which is why there’s not much to say about them. First Stop: San Juan, Puerto Rico San Juan was nice I guess. We just shopped a little. [...]

One thing I noticed on this cruise was that the food quality had increased from the past few years. (Or maybe it was just because I hadn’t cruised in so long anything would taste good!) Either way, the food was great. Up at the buffet, there was a lot of variety. Despite all the variety, [...]

I will be dividing my cruise review into several sections. I will talk about a different aspect of the cruise in each post. Today I will start with the ship itself. We sailed on the Carnival Miracle. I already knew I would love the ship because we sailed on a sister ship, the Carnival Legend, [...]
