I took a solo cruise on board the carnival Panorama out of Long Beach California for what would be a 7day journey to the Mexican Riviera

this included hearty option is Finger Licking Good and one of my absolute favorites whenever I can find it on a Carnival ship

the Panorama comes off as spacious yet still intimate and that's what I appreciate the most
