Carnival Magic Arrives in Galveston
The Carnival Magic, the newest, biggest ship in the Carnival line, arrived in its new home port of Galveston on Nov. 13. To celebrate, Carnival threw a dockside party featuring Grammy Award winning band Maroon 5. On the 14th, Magic left for her inaugural Gulf of Mexico journey, traveling to Cozumel, Mexico.
To say the Magic is spectacular and elegant is an understatement. She’s 1004 feet long and carries 3690 guests. For fun, the ship offers SportsSquare, a fun and fitness area with basketball, miniature golf, ping pong, a rope course and exercise equipment. Entertainment can be found in the Red Frog Pub, a Caribbean inspired bistro with its own hand crafted beer, at the Play It Again Piano Bar, at the casino, at the poolside movie Theatre, or at the Showtime Theatre which features Vegas style shows.
And of course one of the biggest draws of a cruise is the cuisine. Formal dining nights in the Northern Lights Dining Room create lasting memories of delicious dishes
and crisp service. And for variety, the Magic offers two premium dining areas, the Cucina del Capitano, a family style Italian restaurant (don’t miss the Spaghetti Carbonara), and Prime Steakhouse (everything was excellent and the presentation and atmosphere were dazzling!)
The Magic will offer several destinations for its cruises, one will go to the Mayan Riviera at Costa Maya, Cozumel and Belize, the other will visit Nassau and Key West, another to Jamaica and Grand Cayman. But who are we kidding? The destination is an afterthought. The thrill of the cruise is what makes this such an inspiring vacation, and the plethora of activities and entertainment aboard the Magic make it the prime destination.
