you don't get to the port until 6pm local time, so a lot of things are already closed, and San Juan isn't really the place that I want to walk around after dark. Stayed on the ship. 


San Juan

A nice place to stop, but we have been here so much before, we just walked around downtown. It is about a 20 minute walk or they have shuttles. 7 Ships were in port that day so not so easy to get a deal at a store. 


St. Thomas

A small area of shops to walk around, but be prepared to get bombarded as you get off ship. Only was off the ship for about 10 minutes, as we have been here before. 


Antigua

Take a tour! NOTHING to do around the ship.. only a handful of shops. ALSO, if you get car sick, take pills prior, Very Hilly around the island! 
Some nice beaches. 


Tortola

Nassau is always a nice place to stop. You can just get off the ship and walk downtown for shopping or grab a cab to atlantis. 


Nassau

Cabin had a water sloshing noise, that staff heard but could not find an exact cause.

Food - I wasn't impressed by the buffet on carnival, they are so much smaller than Royal Caribbean and Princess' buffets, however I have come to expect this from carnival.Starting with our cruise, they stopped the snacks at the lobby bar, took chocolates off pillows, took away the melting cake, and a few other minor things.
