Our first was on the Carnival Sensation, a 7 day eastern Caribbean cruise in Sept of 1997.

Our first was the Carnival Spirit to Mexico in 2008, and we were quickly hooked!

Our first was Carnival Jubilee in 1996. 47 cruises later – each one was fantastic and we still can’t wait for the next one!

Monarch of the Seas out of Los Angeles. It was a weekend cruise that we took my parents on for their anniversary. It was just the four kids and parents, no spouses or grandkids. So for the first time in many, many years, all 6 of our original family were together again.

The Inspiration in 2000 out of New Orleans to Jamaica, Cayman Islands and Cozemul (spelling ?). Had a blast. I loved that boat more than the Conquest which was our 2nd cruise in 2004 (Western Caribbean again). This upcoming will be on the Conquest again doing the Eastern Carribbean though and are going with the WHOLE family and friends this time. I guess you can say I don't want the hassle of flying to a port. It looks like in the future, I will have no choice. There are no more options to sail out of New Orleans which is only a 20 minute or so drive to port.

Carnival Triumph 1999. Still my favorite ship. The newer ships have different amenities but the Triumph has more open outdoor spaces which reminds of tv's Love Boat.

The GRAND Princess, in August 2002 to the western Caribbean, for our 25th Anniversary. We'll be sailing the new & improved GRAND again next summer on our 36th Anniversary!

The old HAL Westerdam, for our honeymoon in 1995. I was just about set to return to HAL this January until I discoverd some Christian revival group had half the ship booked. So we are booked on the Carnival Dream for our 9th cruise.
