At Sea

The days at sea on the Carnival Freedom went far too fast. They always finished with me exhausted and wondering what I actually did to end up so tired.


Playing some chess on deck


We filled our time eating, playing at Camp Carnival, using the pools, wandering around, dancing to live music, napping and doing some of the onboard activities. It is a lovely existence. We also went to a couple of evening shows, although the first one was usually at 8:30pm which is already late for us.


The teddy bear making activity was a hit


It was easy to find things to do that catered to all our ages. For example, on the last full day at sea on our Caribbean cruise, S and I had an awesome time on deck swimming, eating yummy Indian food, eating frozen yoghurt (her), drinking frozen cocktails (me), dancing… It had a party atmosphere that was suitable for all ages and I’ve never had such an enjoyable time with kids where I still felt like I was in the adult world.
