Went to celebrate me and my husband's birthday. This is my second time on the Mardi Gras but his first. He was like a child at play. Eyes big like diamonds with all there was to do and see.

Ship tip
This ship is huge and you will get lots of steps in. Bring a sweater or light jacket for the evenings. Make sure to due the verifly because it makes the entire embarkation process smoother. Also do your muster station as soon as you board since it only takes 5 minutes.
We are sailing over Holloween, can’t wait. Cruised Mardi Gras last year November, food was awful in the main dining room at dinner. I’m hoping it was because of the newness of the ship. We love Carnival normally. Even the steak house and seafood, paid dining was not great, food was ok service was struggling to survive.
Hope to see some people onboard
