Report from the the Spirit, somewhere in the Pacific

My mom has just used e-mail for the very first time in her life, writing from the Carnival Spirit. She said the seas were rough near Vancouver, but are getting smoother as they head South. (This is Day Two on her Vancouver to Hawaii itinerary.)

Those in her group think the Spirit is the prettiest ship they've ever seen. My mom thinks the AOS is prettier, but they all agree that the food has been FANTASTIC! She said closet space in her Cat. 8 cabin was very tight for 2 people on a 12 day cruise.

She said there were a lot of customs and security checks getting through the airport and to the ship. (She probably should've stayed 1 night pre-cruise, but no one in her group wanted to do it.) She said Carnival has had plenty of activities to keep them all busy and again, stressed the good food. :)

Glad to hear your mom is enjoying the Spirit. And, her first email--from a cruise ship no less!!! :)

They must have a lot of clothes to find the 8 cabins tight for space! ;)

Hope her sea days just get smoother and smoother.

Ya know, Sea Turtle, I think they really overpacked. It's a long cruise and she tends to wear a lot of clothes during the day and then dressier clothes at night. She never wears shorts, and rarely capris, so the pants & dresses take up more space. I'm sure she's using all the closet space and hardly any of the drawer space.

Still, I wouldn't mind having her "problem" - being on a cruise and trying to find storage space!! Much better than being stuck on land!
