We were onboard the Carnival Pride repositioning cruise from LA to Miami through the Panama Canal during March 2009. Based on that experience I wrote in my review that "we want to take this trip again onboard one of the Pride's sister ships". So, when we learned the Miracle was moving to Los Angeles, we booked this cruise immediately. As it turned out, our Captain for this cruise was the same as for the Pride cruise.

This was a 15 night cruise with stops at Grand Turk, Cartagena (Colombia), Puntarenas (Costa Rica), Puerto Quetzal (Guatemala), and Cabo San Lucas.
