The FUN Facts
On a "Fun Ship" cruise, one low price includes all your meals,
fun activities and superb entertainment in the theater, clubs
and lounges. Even the 24-hour stateroom service is free.
What's the best thing about Carnival? EVERYTHING. You unpack
only once. You have the option of fine or casual dining. And
you never run out of fun things to do.
The cost of your cruise will depend on your choice of
accommodations, which can range from an inside stateroom to a
Suite with a private balcony overlooking the sea. You'll find
that a "Fun Ship" vacation is an unbeatable value.
Once you come aboard a
Carnival ship, you'll experience for yourself that some
vacations are just more fun than others. We guarantee it!
Every Carnival "Fun Ship" is a complete resort in itself.
Travel from one fascinating destination to another. No matter
how much time you have, our fun fits your schedule.
Who Would You Find Onboard:
EVERYBODY. On an average "Fun Ship" cruise vacation, we have
senior citizens on anniversary cruises; first and second
honeymooners from 21 to over 50; families with toddlers, tots
and teenagers (who love our supervised Camp Carnival®
activities); and single men and women who always seem to find
each other. And, of course, lots of happy couples who
are even happier on a Carnival cruise vacation.
Relax on a sun-drenched beach or swim
with colorful fish
Virtually everything is included in one low price: fabulous
meals, beautiful destinations, exciting entertainment and
more!
Carnival is the cruise for you, no matter what type of music
you love, your sure to find the one thing you love most: fun!
On this spectacular ship, you'll have more than 100,000 tons
of fun! Because this enormous floating resort has four pools
and tiers of deck space for fun in the sun and all kinds of
nightspots that light up when the sun goes down.
Every "Fun Ship" has a choice of pools, a spiral water slide,
and lots of sunny and shady deck space.
If
dancing is your thing, you'll love the high-spirited Ionian
Room.
You can always catch "the big game" on the large-screen TVs.
Enjoy spectacular Las Vegas-style shows in the lavish
Caribbean Lounge.
Relax with a "best seller" in the serene beauty of the
Library, whose decor includes portraits of former
presidents
Jazz enthusiasts can enjoy dancing to a live jazz band.

any other cruise line. Whether, you choose Interior or Ocean
view, Suite or Penthouse Suite, you'll get the same personal
attention!
Every Carnival guest is assured of spacious, comfortable accommodations. All staterooms have carpeting, ample drawer and closet space, private facilities (shower, basin and toilet), telephone and color television showing first-run films. Our Super Liners all feature staterooms above ocean level for a more comfortable cruise.



Making the most of the most memorable vacation of your life.
Some
guests love rock. Some love country. Some only want to hear the
classics. On Carnival you'll have no problem finding the kind of
music you love best.
Ken said: "I'm not much for dancing but the last cruise my wife and I were on we danced every night. The first night my wife could barely get me onto the dance floor. But by the last night I wouldn't let her skip the dancing. It was really fun. I felt like a kid again and wow, the romance was exciting."

but you can also dine casually in our "Sea view Bistro"
restaurant, where the food is just as delicious and at no
additional cost, but the atmosphere is relaxed. Sea view
Bistros offer salads, pasta, and entrees such as chicken,
shrimp and grilled-to-order New York strip steak.
For a late-night snack, try our 24-hour Pizzeria, offering a
variety of oven-fresh pizzas, as well as fresh Caesar salads
and incredible garlic rolls.

be tempted with irresistible dessert masterpieces. One thing
not to expect? The bill. Bon appetit!
Did I mention that there was lot's of food? You had better start dieting now because you will want to enjoy all the meals. I loved all the fresh fruit they served and ate some with every meal. When I got home I had severe withdrawals as I couldn't find any Papaya.

So, who is Christy? Well, Ken McGinnis says; "Christy is my sister and you will just love her! Going on a cruise will be fun but if you are going on a cruise with Christy then get ready for the best vacation of your life. I'm not exaggerating here. Christy just has a way of making things so much fun".
Christy has put together several cruises of large groups and always does such a great job. She organized our 2004 Legacy cruise and I think everyone just loved her and all she did to make the cruse a huge success.

Christy says; "My family has personally gone on the Victory and it was a fantastic ship. A wonderful experience. Top notch and first class all the way. You won't be disappointed.". So, if you have questions don't hesitate to ask her as she will have the answers for you. Just be warned that if you talk to her you will probably have troubles sleeping that night because of the excitement.
Order Form
Last years September 2004 Cruise was completely sold out. Please make your reservation now in order to be one of the lucky ones to come with us in October of 2005. We have negotiated these special prices for the first 100 cabins and the rates are guaranteed so don't delay reserving your space. This price is guaranteed only until we run out of the reserved cabins and space is quickly filling up. Don't miss out on this great opportunity.
You may elect to pay the entire amount now or hold your cabin and lock in the price by paying only a $300.00 deposit.
Last year we completely sold out. I felt very bad when a few people who had missed out on the initial 100 reserved cabins had to spend almost double the price to still be able to come with us. Make your reservation now for just $300.00 so you don't miss out.
I don't know if you have gone on a cruise before but they can be lots of fun. All the food and fun one person can take in. You may elect to pay the entire amount now or hold your cabin and lock in the price by paying only a $300.00 deposit.
