Seems that carnival has been plagued with various mishaps over the years. Makes you wonder how this could happen

Carnival is about the cheapest of the cruise lines, but I'd never go on one of their cruises. You're
right, it seems like they have more illness and other problems than all the other cruise lines put
together.

I always say the food and service in general is what you would expect
at a Carnival.

Have you been on one?

Several when we were cruising with Trane and Carrier (sales prizes).
My daughter got married on the Destiny. At the time the difference
between Carnival and Holland America was striking. I am not sure what
it is like now that it is one company.

We'll probably stick with Disney, although I've been hearing some good things about MSC. We're going
out of New Orleans in Feb on a Disney ship. Looking forward to spending a few days in New Orleans
once we return. Neither of us have ever been there.


We are probably done cruising. If we do anything it would be a river
cruise in the US. The only ocean cruises that might interest me would
be one of those New Horizon things with the ship board seminars and
historic/scientific stops. My wife is not that interested.


Look into the Lindblad cruises. Pricey, but they look very cool.


I might be able to talk her into the Scotland one. Now where is that
lottery ticket?
