I miss seeing you and Jason together on this cruise! It's so sad hearing you say you miss Jason. Can't wait to see you two together again on your adventures.
Long Beach “dome” used to house The Spruce Goose before Evergreen bought her and moved her to WA. After that the dome was empty. So Carnival either leased or bought the area from the city of Long Beach. Then turned her into their exclusive port. Moving from the San Pedro port of Los Angeles
I really miss you and Jason travelling together. Its not that it isn't always great to see you, but the magic you and Jason have translates to your videos and something in your video content, is missing when he isn't there.
I agree. The Greece blogs with Jason were super good. Reviewed many times. The recent blogs have lacked the quality magic interaction of travel with Jason. ( lacking in most cruise blogs )We tune in not to learn about a dog. Or dog Instagram posts. Focus lost recently.
I lived on the Isle of Wight as a child in the 50s, loved seeing the Queen Mary heading into the English Channel. Love all your content as my mobility not so good now. Absolutely adore the puppy.❤
Oh, those Guy's Burgers are probably THE BEST FOOD EVER on a cruise ship!! You mentioned the "String music" was on here. Is this the 3 violinists that were also on the Venezia? I think they are called Delight String Trio?? SO Amazing!! Do you have any video of them??
in 2016, i had to sail on another carnival ship without my girlfriend carolyn, who fell down on a sidewalk in april of that year. this year she and i are going on the firebnze on may 21.
My first time coming across your feed. Really enjoyed your video. Hoping to get on the ship in November. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to more videos
Another great video! That dome at the port, now the cruise terminal, was built to house Howard Hughes's famous "Spruce Goose" airplane before it was moved up the coast.
Welcome to Long Beach. I live in the area. One observation. The Queen Mary is a hotel, BUT it is also a museum. Hope you have enjoyed the Venecia. I am looking forward to being on it in a year or so.
I was just down the road in San Pedro on Navigator in Mid April for my birthday. Saw the drama on May 2nd, I had your cruise booked but canceled after they place a cruise before this one. Enjoy your cruise. Fred San Diego Ca.
u for sure need to book an aft cabin! i would say do it on one of the Vista class ships since they seem to be part of the Havana area - that way u can kill 2 birds with one stone and experience both at the same time - we cant seem to book anything but aft cabins cuz as u said - the view is awesome back there! we had our first taste of Havana last sept on Horizon and it was awesome as well - am definitely considering booking the Firenze and more than likely will try to get one of the Terrazza area aft balconies - thanks for another great vid!
Great video! Quick question… was the mask making a free activity? I’m going with family next month and wanted to know if it’s an additional charge so we know if we should just bring our own. Thanks!
The ship looks amazing! Kinda jelly, since there are some additions on Firenze that aren't on Venezia (like those empanadas!) Maybe they will add that the next dry dock. It's so different not seeing Jason with you on this cruise. Can't wait to see the rest of your solo adventure!
I am really liking this ship! I hope that the reviews of the food and the experience are good ones. Because if they are, I’m going to book a cruise on her!
Alisa i was thrilled to see another video up, i just love your videos, hope you did okay without Jason, beautiful ship. One day maybe. Oh and can i tell you that you look so young.
I like cruising from Long Beach just wish they had a place to put a Private Island for the West Coast folks like they do on the East Coast because Ensenada and Catalina gets very boring to go all the time...
we will be getting off of the Panorama on June 2nd, staying the night at the Queenmary, and boarding the Radiance on the 3rd. almost back to back cruises.
Very nice . 👌. Is this like the other Italian ship 🚢 sailing out of ney York and Florida? ❤ look of the room in bigger bathroom. I go for that right know with wife over pa weather.
Hi -thanks for all of the information! If we have the full drink package, we can use it at any of the bars on board, correct? There’s no restrictions on that? Thanks in advance!
I'm not sure if Jason would like this ship or the Venezia. I think I've seen people post that the gym is super-small, not really the right size for the ship.
Long Beach was kinda miserable to get into?? Had the EXACT same problem on Easter Sunday down the road a bit in San Pedro (which is technically the “Los Angeles Cruise Port”) trying to get on NCL Bliss! ABSOLUTE Nightmare!! Took 75 MINUTES TO GET FROM PULLING INTO THE FRONT GATES OF THE PORT UNTIL WE WERE ABLE TO PARK THE CAR!!
I am not an animal person. I’m at the age that when I cruise I want my partner with me. There will be time when I won’t be able to go on trips to adopt an animal and stay home.
Looks like a nice ship even though it is older. Please pronounce Firenze as it is spelled not add an O after the I - thank you. As for the people sitting in front of the slot machines, I would be one of them. I actually think without a casino, I would be bored on those cruises but that is just me. To each his own I guess.
Without Jason and the addition of a dog is NOT continuing the magic quality as of your past excellent travel blogs. We watch to learn more about cruise travel....not about a new pet as in your Colorado blogs.

I was SO HAPPY when he picked me up from the port this morning! I really missed him!!
I'm from Arizona, in the 60s? I'm going to have to bring a coat and mittens to this Cruise in August

I was going to mention the Spruce Goose.
@@fredsmodel3n192 Howard Hughes
Spruce goose is in Oregon, not Washington. Also, I like the long beach terminal.
You're the first Firenze review to show me something new! I had no idea there was an empanada stand.

I believe the white dome at Long Beach pier is where Howard Hughes had his Spruce Goose.
I told myself I’d never go on a Carnival cruise but this has changed my mind. Beautiful ship!
This is 100% why they did this. They needed to attract those customers questioning Carnival.
Awesome Vlog and another awesome Carnival Cruise ship!!!!
Oh, those Guy's Burgers are probably THE BEST FOOD EVER on a cruise ship!!
You mentioned the "String music" was on here.
Is this the 3 violinists that were also on the Venezia?
I think they are called Delight String Trio?? SO Amazing!! Do you have any video of them??
🤣Nobody tell Jason that Alyssa was peeking behind David's fig leaf! 🤣
😂😂😂
Hey miss and hubby cruising together mad me sad not to see him how y'all love the puppy that's gonna make y all road trip even better 😀😄
in 2016, i had to sail on another carnival ship without my girlfriend carolyn, who fell down on a sidewalk in april of that year. this year she and i are going on the firebnze on may 21.
Ive been waiting to see this ship. I'm on it with my son in September
Definitely book an aft cabin-we ❤loved our aft cabin on Disney Fantasy!

We luv LB!!!! Daughter n I r sailing the panorama again Saturday n we’re staying at QM for the 1st time Friday night.
Welcome to Long Beach. I live in the area. One observation. The Queen Mary is a hotel, BUT it is also a museum. Hope you have enjoyed the Venecia. I am looking forward to being on it in a year or so.
So excited to see your review of this ship, since I am heading out on that cruise on May 21!
Have fun!!

Wow you were here in my neck of the woods, hope you are doing great? Hope you enjoyed our California weather
You hair grew back! You look lovely. Enjoy yourself. You deserve a great time!!
Yes! I was hoping you'd be sailing on Firenze and giving your review!
Can't wait for you Cabo episode!!
It’s posted!!
Amazing review! I can't wait to sail on her!

I think yah should stay at the Queen Marry.. check it out and give a full ship tour
Nice video I’ll be on this ship at the end of June
We were put in an extended balcony aft cabin -I think a mini suite on Conquest during covid. Loved it & was our 1st time at Bimini.😊
The ship looks amazing! Kinda jelly, since there are some additions on Firenze that aren't on Venezia (like those empanadas!) Maybe they will add that the next dry dock. It's so different not seeing Jason with you on this cruise. Can't wait to see the rest of your solo adventure!
Yes those empanadas!!!
I am really liking this ship! I hope that the reviews of the food and the experience are good ones. Because if they are, I’m going to book a cruise on her!
I had a really good experience on this ship. There are more videos to come so stay tuned!
Love your videos! How do you get your Coke zeros on the bubbles package? I thought carnival was Pepsi?
I was going to ask if you saw Dee and Jay as they just dropped a video yesterday.
I love watching Dee and Jay! I also watch Tony, and then Ben and David. Jason and Alyssa and everyone I've mentioned are amazing!
It’s May Gray and June Gloom in SoCal. 😊
Alisa i was thrilled to see another video up, i just love your videos, hope you did okay without Jason, beautiful ship. One day maybe.
Oh and can i tell you that you look so young.
Thank you so much! I missed Jason bunches but did enjoy the cruise.
Hi. Do they have solo cabins like on ncl or did you have to pay double for a room by yourself?
I liked that cruise director I had him on Venezia and he was very good.
Have you run into ParoDeeJay yet onboard? Your new puppy is precious.
I like cruising from Long Beach just wish they had a place to put a Private Island for the West Coast folks like they do on the East Coast because Ensenada and Catalina gets very boring to go all the time...
Agreed! But we have so many ports like manzanillo and Acapulco that ships don’t seem to visit.
We're boarding her next Thursday with our oldest granddaughter for her first cruise. Do they not have Pepsi products on this one?
Great vlog. Thanks for sharing!
Love the masks - white is pretty on you.
The room is nice
Love your black and gold mask!! Who dat ⚜️🖤💛
Who dat!!
The, ringer, with sauté onions and, peppers, then BBQ sauce! It's good on the Porto ricin sandwich 🥪 from the deli, the same way !
Over the years traveling, many people win jackpots on the first night. So you have to get on your favorite game in the casino.
The Cuban sandwich 🥪 is boom from the deli
Is food all-inclusive?
we will be getting off of the Panorama on June 2nd, staying the night at the Queenmary, and boarding the Radiance on the 3rd. almost back to back cruises.
Sounds like a great trip!
Very nice . 👌. Is this like the other Italian ship 🚢 sailing out of ney York and Florida? ❤ look of the room in bigger bathroom. I go for that right know with wife over pa weather.
It sure is 👍
Soooo ready for the wing bar and empeñada bar in January.
There is a charge for the wings, I haven’t seen the empanada bar.
The empanadas are $1.50 each
How much are the wings?
:53 for the win LOL
Hi -thanks for all of the information! If we have the full drink package, we can use it at any of the bars on board, correct? There’s no restrictions on that? Thanks in advance!
Correct! Have fun!!
@@EECCTravels thanks so much!
I'm not sure if Jason would like this ship or the Venezia. I think I've seen people post that the gym is super-small, not really the right size for the ship.
I walked through it and it is definitely small.
what date was the boarding on the new carnival? my guess is may 2nd.
Yes on May 2nd
what part of Washington state are you coming to see?
You look Great Alyssa!
Thank you!!
Great video ❤❤❤❤
Were there any other Coke products available on this ship?
Wings and empanadas ❤
The statue of David is actually from Carnival Pride!
Welcome to California!
The masks remind me of the plastic costume masks we had with our Halloween costumes in the 1980s
We call it "May Gray"😮
I've been following your vlogs for a while.How old are the littles?
Our kids are 20-30 years old! All grown up ❤️
Going on this may 16th-21st😎
Us, too!
Alisa. My wife and I were on that cruise too. I thought I saw you, but wasn't sure. I wish I would have said hello anyway!
We had a great time!
You definitely should have said hi!!
Your pooch is cute by why would people get a dog when they cruise and have to split

I have never had a Guy's Burger. I wish I good get one but I have never cruised with Carnival.
Guy’s Burger is amazing!
Wait?! Do they have Coke Zero on the ship. I was disappointed when I heard it was just Pepsi products
A few venues have Coke Zero but that is the only Coke product on the ship.
Wait, I saw you with a Coke Zero on the bubbles package… are you serious?
Great job as always ,i never did carnaval but that ship looks different i like it
I am not an animal person. I’m at the age that when I cruise I want my partner with me. There will be time when I won’t be able to go on trips to adopt an animal and stay home.
Coke Zero on Firenze? I thought Carnival was all Pepsi products.
Only Coke product was Zero and only at a few venues
FIRENZE: It's the Italian spelling and [pronunciation fir the city of Florence Italy
I gotta go just because of the wing bar.
Is he not cruising with you anymore?
He has the camper van and the new puppy. I think you missed the beginning.
@@fredsmodel3n192 I did watch it.
Jason stayed with our new puppy in our RV. He will be with me on the next cruise this fall when the puppy is older and she can stay with family.
I'm one of those ones that sit on the machine as soon as I finish dinner.
spruce goose is in oregon. not WA
Personally the Italian theme is a bit gaudy for my taste.
How is it considered a "new ship" when it's a old ship branded by carnival cruise lines For Costa.
Re-furnished or Re-furbished for Carnival and from the looks of it, it looks very nice.
@@fredsmodel3n192 Costa is carnival
Carnival is considering it a new ship
Excellent video as always 🛳️❤️🌊
Poor, poor jason.
Look like this ship might not suitable for parents with 8, 10 years old/young kids. I am not sure about it now.
Looks like a nice ship even though it is older. Please pronounce Firenze as it is spelled not add an O after the I - thank you. As for the people sitting in front of the slot machines, I would be one of them. I actually think without a casino, I would be bored on those cruises but that is just me. To each his own I guess.
Don’t like burgers 🍔 at all
Thanks for your video. It was very informative.🛳️😎⚓️❤️
