This is the colorful atrium on the Carnival Dream featuring a grand pianist. My wife and I just got back from our 7 day cruise to the Western Caribbean and it will take me months to go through all the photos and videos. I thought I would share these with you until I process the rest. Look for more posts soon! :-)

We got off to a cloudy start and didn't see the sun for 3 days.

Too cool! Don't you just fall in love with your waiter?!? He always knows your drink and has it waiting and is quick with a smile. Love crusing! Glad to see the pics and look forward to more.

Kerrie - Our guy was better than excellent. He was one of the best singing waiters and a showman!

John - It looks like you and your wife had a dream vacation! I have never been on a cruise. Always have wanted to go on one, but still haven't done it! Love the picture of the two of you!

Oct 23, 2011 12:33 PM

Thanks Hannah - We had a good time except for the lack of sun :-(

Oct 23, 2011 12:35 PM

Thanks Myrl - If you go on a cruise, my advice is to book last minute and check the weather daily. We battled through a tropical storm on the way down and the sun was a scarce commodity the whole time. There were a lot of long faces onboard but through it all, we managed to have a fairly good time.

Robert and Lisa - The piano player is hard to spot with everything else going on in the photo. Thanks for dropping by!

Hi John,

I love your pictures and they are so colorful. Looks like you both had a great time. I have been on Princess and Carnival and they do a great job of taking care of the guests. Next year we are crusing Hawaii since I have never been there!!

Thanks for sharing such a wonderful vacation.

Sussie - My wife prefers to go shopping but danced the night away in other ways :-)

Hi Dee Dee - Keep your fingers crossed for good weather. It can make or break your cruise! I hope you have fun.

Oct 26, 2011 05:57 PM

Kristin - Hawaii sounds wonderful! My parents had that trip on their "bucket list" and had a great time.
