Sailed on the Carnival Triumph out of New Orleans. My wife has sailed 8 times before and I have sailed 6 times. This was by far the lease enjoyed cruise. The ship was smaller than I expected. The only deck to take a walk around was the lido deck where all the parting was taking place and the moved being shown. I am use to taking a walk after dinner and we could only walk on deck 3, starboard or port only and for a length of 200feet or so.
The movement of the ship on deck was apparent when at sea. The constant movement likely due to the size of the ship. The captain had great difficulty anchoring in Belize. Apparently the seas were "rough". I have owned sailboats and have docked in worse weather. We lost a couple of hours of shore time because of "rough seas".
We never docked in Mahogany Bay, Honduras. Again apparently the seas were too rough to get to the new $54 million dock!. I could not believe it. But we got $9.82 each refund on the port fees (LOL) What a joke. And then we proceeded to Cozumel at approximately 6 knots. We cruised about 350 miles in 30 hours. And all the kids that were looking forward to a day ashore were lining the halls trying to make the best of it, but the noise was a bit much.
We usually are mid ship on deck 7 or 8. Cabin 8410 was at the very stern of the ship and the wave action was felt everyday. I'll not get a stern cabin again.
