They truly do have activities for adults and we loved every minute. The cooking demonstration was greats, as well as the couples massage in open air cabanas on their private island.

Do you know what happened to the Carnival Tropicale? We sailed on her in 1984...always wondered if she sails under another brand now or if she has gone the way of the Carnivale? Great memories of that trip with 3 other friends. Thanks John, best to Heidi and the Thingy! John, please reply. Do you know what happened to the Carnival Tropicale?

But someday, you will go back to Disney with your "thingy", and you will become Dopey and Happy. My kids preferred Disney cruise when they were younger, but now they prefer Carnival.

We went with our dearest friends and you were the highlight of our week! We booked several more over the years and my DH and I will be going on the Valor in less than 2 weeks. Sadly my best friend passed away from cancer a couple of years ago but we were so blessed to have the time onboard Carnival for many years. And it all started because of you and your sincerity that each person was as special to you as the next! Thank you so much!! One quick question: this will be my first time in a wheelchair due to a herniated disc.. how hard is it to manuever around esp in the theater? Any suggestions would be a blessing! Oh.. congrats to you and Heidi on your 'thingy'! He/she will be very blessed to have you for a father and Heidi for a mother! God bless! Hi John,

Mike constantly tells people about the time we decided to tour all around Florida to cities we had never been to. Florida IS a big state! We were on the road for 7 days, hotels, food, the entertainment such as amusement parks, etc. and gas. It cost us more money than we can go on 2 cruises for! Now that is a DEAL! Who wouldn't want to cruise? You only unpack ONE time, don't have to cook, have room service, great shows etc. and if you are lucky you have the best cruise director in the world- John Heald, when he is working! Well, sorry - I know even when you aren't on a cruise ship you ARE working but you know what I mean! Happy Cruising Everyone!
