| We just got back from the Miracle and really did enjoy Grand Turk. We did book the cabana as soon as we got on board. It was worth it for us. There are 10 of them by beginning near the flowrider and going along the pool area.

| Welcome back! I'll have to remember that about the cabanas. Where did you have to go to book them? How did you like the Miracle?

You may be able to book them on-line through Carnival. I was told that for the Miracle sailings I needed to book them at the shore excursion desk on board the ship and that this was because of the change on the ports of call.
We really loved the Miracle. It was an exceptionally clean and well run ship in my opinion. The staff were great. I like the layout of the ship and never felt crowded. The smooth seas and great weather made this a fantastic cruise. Back in 1990 I said that it would take a miracle for me to go back on a carnival cruise, I guess I really Miracles do happen, LOL!

He was not there, he must have gone home already. Our CD definitely was Brent. There were a few other assistants, a woman who goes by Special K, she was Captain of the Red team and Pip (or something like that) who wasa captain of the blue team.

| Looks like Tortola is now the port instead of Grand Turk. The hurricaine did a lot of damage.

That's so sad. 80% of the homes and business were damaged or worse. Tortola isn't a bad port though. I've only been once and would love to go back.

| When we stopped in Tortola in 2006 we went to the Baths over on Virgin Gorda. It was a great day. I would like to go back there again sometime.
