As anda know, atau didn't know possibly, I went on a 7 hari cruise last week. The cruise was called the Carnival Pride. I was asked to describe my whole vacation in an article, so here it is!
Let me start sejak saying that I went with my family (Parents, brother) and my Aunt and three cousins, all around my age.
The Sea Days
The first two days we were at sea. We had basketball, mini-golf, 24 jam ice cream, pizza, free buffets, an arcade, two pools, two hot tubs, comedy shows, and more! Although Monday wasn't a very good day. It was too cold to go swimming in the pool, and the waves were rough that day. Tuesday was a whole different story. We were getting closer to Florida, our first destination, and it was beautiful out. We spent hours in the pool, on the water slide, and Membaca at the side of the pool (I was Membaca the Son of Neptune if anyone is wondering. I still haven't finished it, so I kinda fail on that part.) We attempted going to the dining room that night! We went with 8 people, and only 4 stayed until it was time to leave. I'm proud to say I was one of the 4 survivors. Two of my cousins got sea sick, so they went back to the cabin. My brother complained he was tired, so my dad took him back. I kind of wanted to go too, but I'm glad I stayed. The waiters danced (It was hilarious) and the Pencuci Mulut was delicious. Oh, I forgot to say, it was "elegant night", which means I had to put on a fancy dress. It wasn't enjoyable on my part, but the whole ship had to do it, so it was less painful.
The Wizarding World of Harry Potter
This was the hari I was waiting for. I woke up early, and saw that we were already ported in Florida. We had to take a bus from the dock to the Islands of Adventure. It was 45 minit of torture. I just wanted to get there!
Then when we finally got there, of course we had to walk a long way to actually get to the HP part. When I saw the sign, I literally ran all the way through Hogsmeade (which was beautiful) to Hogwarts. My cousins ran right along with me, but of course the adults didn't. We had to wait for them *sigh*. THEN we had to wait for them to get a locker.
Walking through Hogwarts was amazing. I just can't explain it. anda have to go to understand. The "Forbidden Journey" was great, except Aragog and the Dementors freaked me out x]
After that we waited on line for Ollivanders. It was a long line, it was hot, but it was worth it. I got my wand, which sort of looks like a Death Eaters wand. It has a skeleton and a snake at the end of it (totally me, right?) but I still think it's awesome.
seterusnya on the senarai was the Three Broomsticks! We didn't need to wait in line for Makanan at all, which was awesome. I got chicken and lebih importantly, butterbeer! If anda ever go, anda need to try it. It might be filling, but it's great. It's like nothing I've ever had before. Also try to labu Juice, which I wasn't going to have, because it just sounds weird (But I did, thanks for telling me to have it, T!). It kind of tastes like labu pie. Awesome.
Now onto Honeydukes! My brother and I got Chocolate frogs. I got Godric Gryffindors card (awesome) my brother got Salazar Slytherins (he was mad). The store was perfect. It connected to Zonkos.
The roller coasters there were all awesome, but I don't really need to go into that. If anda go, I suggest anda go on the Naga Challenge (If anda really like roller coasters) and anyone should be able to handle the Flight of the Hippogriff.
The Bahamas
Day One
The first hari we went to Atlantis. It wasn't fun, because we got the cheapo excursion. A little tour around Atlantis, though we weren't allowed on the water slide atau in the pools. They taunted me. Can't say much about that day. Though Atlantis was beautiful, I didn't have much fun there.
Day Two
Better sejak far. It was a pantai hari in the middle of OCTOBER. The most beautiful pantai I had ever been to. Why do people even want to go to the Jersey Shore? In my opinion Jerseys beaches are gross (take it from a local). The water was clear. It was warm. Waves barely existed. The sand was white. It was perfect. I wish I could have taken the Bahamas pantai utama with me.
Extra Stories
There were these Kelab on the ship. This one club was for 15-17 tahun olds. Two of my cousins and I were allowed to go to that club. We didn't want to. Though my parents wanted us to, and a very pushy guy named Dave who ran the club also wanted us to. Dave met us randomly and asked us our age. Once he knew he wouldn't stop asking us. We went one time, got forms we had to sign and a free bag. It's funny that they gave us all bags because we never went back.
Though this one time, we were walking to the elevators. Then all the kids from the club happened to walk into the lobby where the elevators were. That meant Dave was close. What did we do? We ran. We ran up 2 flights of stairs, and didn't stop until we got to our room. And we had a blast.

One time we were waiting for the elevator. It came to our floor, so my brother started clapping, as we had been waiting for a couple of minutes. Of course, it didn't feel like stopping on our floor. It kept going. We walked down the stairs to makan malam, majlis makan malam that night. It's too bad the elevators don't like to cooperate.
That's it for now... If I remember lebih later, I'll add it :)
