Photos just do not tell you how big these things truly are.

These photos are of the newest Carnival Mardi Gras Cruise Ship. This thing is simply massive and hard to believe it actually "FLOATS". I can not wait for the day when my wife and I take a vacation on it. But, at least this time, we went to Port Canavral just to see these ships depart. It is an awesome sight. Hope you enjoy !!

Did you take her for a spin?

Well, one would get lost in it, I think.
One advantage if one were to lose weight, one would fall into the water.
Beautiful photos.

No, but on the BUCKET LIST. LOL

Been out once on Carnival - not a bad cruise but we prefer Holland America (brand owned by Carnival). Here's the Koningsdam docked in Oslo. Not nearly as large as the ship above.

I don't know why but when I look at these I think of the fate of the Titanic!

Great photos!

Nope, not as big, but still a massive ship. I can't wait to sail again one day. Thanks for sharing your photo with us also.

I would prefer NOT to think of that, especially since I want to travel on one again soon.
