Has anyone been on Carnival Sensation?

I am going on a cruise on June 25th, 2009 and it is my first one. I was wondering if anyone had any kind of information or tips to give me before I go! We are sailing to Nassau, Bahamas!






Answer :
I went on Carnival Sensation last March. We went to Freeport (which there really isn't much to do there) and Nassaus (which I wish we would have had more time at!) The carnival sensation is their cheapest ship it is nice for a 1st timer though. You WILL get sea sick to take some Bromine. Bromine is better than dramamine b/c it doesn't put you to sleep. Take electric power strip with you b/c there are only 2 plugs in the rooms. And make sure you take sunscreen! This cruise is def a booze cruise so also make sure you bring some Ib profin!!! Nassau is great and if you go into town and catch cab to pleasure island and then check out the Atlantis resort! There is SOOO much to do there! and for free! Don't get conned into buying a day pass. You can check out the aquarium and then take the hotel shuttle to dolphin cove and check out a FREE dolphin show. You only need the pass to get into some areas of the resort but the shuttles take you all around for FREE! it is really a lot of fun!






Answer :
I have not been on Carnival Sensation, but I have been on Carnival Splendor and I had a blast! That was my first cruise I had ever been on as well. The first thing is that you should join one of the youth groups on the ship. If you are 12 - 14, you would go in Circle C, which I went in last year and made so many good friends that I even still keep in touch with! If you are 15-17, you would go in Club O2, which I have never experienced but they have such nicer rooms than us Circle C people. :)
Bahamas is really GORGEOUS! It was my favourite port of call last year and the beaches are really nice! One of the things I did was I wnet on a boat and they strapped me into a parachute and I got hoisted up into the air and it was so much fun! The view was beautiful, you should do that if you get the chance, unless you are afraid of heights of course.
Anyways if you are interested in what the boat is going to look like and stuff, here is a view links for you:
