This was our 4th time on the triumph, 13th cruise, and 9th carnival. We are seasoned. The new port at Miami was nice, and made everything quick. We got to the port at 11am, on by 12pm. Once onboard, we were allowed to drop our stuff off to the cabin. After we dropped stuff off to cabin, went up to eat lunch.

Club O2 - I am 17, I remember camp carnival and the activities to be lacking and boring starting around age 13. Club O2 completely changed my feelings on that. They made a new club on the triumph since the last time I had been on it (2003). They had many TVs, video games (Wii, PS2, 360), music, a dance floor with a lot of lights, board games, and couches, pretty much everything you needed to make bored teenagers happy. I enjoyed this very much, and must say they kept me entertained with the activities. I also like the if you feel like it approach. If there was an activity on the schedule you did not want to attend, you could still go to club o2 and just play video games the whole time. The club host Brianna was nice, and allowed freedom for everyone to do what they wanted, while respecting the ship at the same time, definitely a plus. Read more
