Creator's Key Takeaways

i'm a warm sleeper and so i always sleep of course with the air on as high as it'll go and then this little turbo boost thing is not doing it

this is one of the best breakfast options in my opinion on carnival ships

it's great to be back in puerto rico again of course you do have to wear masks here all day no matter where you're at outside

how gorgeous this ship is and her natural habitat i guess a port of call the beautiful carnival mardi gras what a great addition to the carnival fleet

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Tell a waiter you're leaving your food if you step away to get a drink to prevent it from being cleared.
βœ“Wear a mask in port to be respectful of local communities and their pandemic safety measures.

YouTube Video Description↓

It's the first port of call EVER on the inaugural sailing of the Carnival Mardi Gras as she ports in San Juan, Puerto Rico! The beautiful Mardi Gras was also the first ship to visit San Juan since the cruising shutdown some 16 months earlier. There was a big celebration to welcome the Mardi Gras and Carnival Cruise Line to San Juan. I went on a walking tour of the port. This was my fourth solo cruise. I start off the day with a breakfast burrito from Blue Iguana Cantina, followed by a coffee from Java Blue. I then get off the ship in beautiful San Juan to being a walking tour of Old San Juan. I visit a church, shops, and several other tourist destinations while making my way toward the Save A Gato cat sanctuary. The Carnival Mardi Gras was the first ship to sail from Port Canaveral in over 15 months. The Mardi Gras is the brand new ship from Carnival Cruise Line, the first of its Excel Class of ships. The Carnival Celebration will debut in November 2022, followed by a third Excel ship in 2023. #Carnival #CarnivalMardiGras #ChooseFun Make sure to SUBSCRIBE to my channel today for all the latest from the Carnival Mardi Gras: https://www.youtube.com/zachthetravelingman Also FOLLOW me on social media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/zachthetravelingman Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/zachthetravelingman
