Whale watching! Only saw 2 or 3...probably due to afternoon excursion! We believe morning or late afternoon would be better. We chose wrong time...

This is my third Cruise two with Carnival one with Princess. I had more fun on the ship this time since I took a lot of excursions last time. The show's were fun to watch and the variety act, he was amazing singer very good. Swimming everyday!
