Carnival Breeze
I had the opportunity to sail Carnival’s newest ship, the Carnival Breeze, and what an amazing, beautiful ship she is! Gone were the loud colors, replaced by beautiful subtle ocean colors. I love this new look that they’re going with and hope they continue with all of the ships. I loved this ship! The Carnival …
Carnival Dream
I attended the christening of the Carnival Dream in 2009 and after that visit I’ve wanted to go back to spend more time on this beautiful ship. Since she is leaving Port Canaveral to go to New Orleans I decided I’d better get a trip in before she left. I did enjoy the ship …

NCL’s Pride of America – Kona
Today we were on the other side of the Big Island at Kona. This port has a lot of coral so you have to tender to the dock. From the ship we could see a lot of dolphins playing around the boats that were tied out in the water, which was great fun to watch. …
NCL’s Pride of America – Hilo
Today we were at Hilo, on the Big Island. We had rented a car from Thrifty so went out to wait on their shuttle. Like we’d seen on Maui, there is nothing near the port so it’s not like you can easily walk to the shops. We took the car up to Hawaii Volcanoes National …
NCL’s Pride of America – Maui
Today was Maui, which I was really looking forward to since one of my co-workers had lived there and talked about its beauty. We hit the buffet, and yes, it was Walmart on sale! Like everyone else, we wanted to eat and get off the ship so we could start exploring. We had rented a …
