Transatlantic Cruise (11/12- 11/20)
Our last port day was Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Kevin and Kenzie walked around Santa Cruz near the port together, while Kaitlyn and I went on an excursion to Teide National Park, We were able to meet up in the afternoon to get a gangway picture together before we re-boarded the ship though!
Kaitlyn and I visited Teide National Park because I desperately wanted to see the volcano! Teide National Park is also a UNESCO World Heritage site and is allegedly the most visited park in "Europe". NASA also tested the Mars rover here due to the similarities in the landscape.
If you can't picture exactly where Tenerife is, this is from our map channel. Crazy to think we were that close to Africa!
Next up... 7 days at sea! We found a lot of fun stuff to do, but still had plenty of time for relaxing too!
Kaitlyn (and Kevin) loved this interactive board. It showed where every Carnival ship was and stats about each ship.
Kaitlyn and I went back to the Carnival Kitchen for a "cupcake workshop". Before learning decorating techniques, they first taught us how to make the famous Carnival Chocolate Melting Cake.
Ah yes, Kenzie got so many compliments on her dress and how pretty she looked in it. What will Kevin and I remember? That thing shed glitter EVERYWHERE. Kevin still had glitter on his face days after she wore it. Her wheelchair looked like Tinkerbell vomited glitter on the seat.
The upper level of the Aquarium Bar. The panels came off the Carnival Victory (which was completely redesigned and rechristened the Carnival Radiance). Kevin thinks I'm an idiot because we were on the Victory and I don't remember these at all!
Our room steward loved to do things with the girls' stuffed animals. Kevin and I still aren't sure what is happening here though!
This is the Engine Order Telegraph from 1955. It was used to communicate orders from the pilot on the bridge to the engine room. This one came off the Carnivale . And, yes, it still "works"; so we had to actually move Kenzie forward to get a picture of her looking at the camera instead of playing with it.
Kenzie loved watching the water!
We always joke about how oblivious Kaitlyn is. She went through 3/4 of the deck of cards before realizing "her" card was stuck on the magician's forehead.
Excited waiting for a show to start!
He was trying to get her to look at the camera. Instead, she decided to point with him. It was so funny and adorable!
It was fate... Kenzie was wearing her Everglades shirt the day this background was out!
Kenzie's quest to eat every croissant on the ship. She had 2-3 every morning for breakfast.
Kenzie showing everyone the water.
This sign was hanging up at Guy's Burgers!
Last day of the cruise! The Green Eggs and Ham Breakfast. Kenzie loved it! And we didn't get sued or arrested when Kenzie tried to pet Sam I Am's butt, so that's good!
