Aww, I am glad you like it! You guys were so lucky to get to see a bear! I was so sad that I never got to see any the whole time we were there What is so funny too, when I think about you, one of the specific things I remember about you guys is how you couldn't get any fresh carrots. I am not sure why that sticks in my mind, the crazy things I remember...LOL.
Well, that was one of the stories we shared with you while waiting for a character greeting one night.
Having been on multiiple Carnival cruises, we anticipated the food servers would go out of their way to keep us happy - as Carnival food servers always did. Our servers were less accomodating. Not that we were trying to be difficult, they were just unwilling to customize any plate or go off the menu at all for us or the family we sat with. I was more annoyed when I found out the raw carrot sticks we desired were available in the adult-only lounge, and served on random days in the Oceaneer's Club or Lab. Once we discovered that, she chose to eat in the Lab everytime we would allow it.
Don't get me wrong - Disney's cruise staff were superb, and overall the cruise experience was definitely better that Carnival. But if I could have had a kid friendly vegetable or a whole banana served to my kid in the dining room, I would have been that much happier. And Carnival would have done that for us.
