Being able to get away from the madness that all
of our lives entail is essential to staying sane and focused on what is
important. Too often we don’t allow ourselves a moment to take a breath and
enjoy the small things around us. That is why we do our segments entitled “Road
Trippin.” If it weren’t for these getaways we might be the next ones on the
roof with the rifle looking to settle a few scores, believe us. Last December
we took our readers aboard the Carnival Splendor, a massive ship that called
Long Beach, CA home. Well this time we headed to the big East Coast on down to
South Beach Miami and took a little spin on the Carnival Valor.
The Carnival Valor, a ship that calls Miami,
Florida home is one of the many amazing vessels in Carnival’s arsenal of Fun
Ships. Checking into our Ocean Suite on the 7th Floor / Empress
Deck, for eight days was just the start of an amazing vacation. We took full
advantage of our VIP booking and avoided the rather lengthy lines on one of the
most humid morning I have yet to experience in my life.
Located in the “Midship”
section of the ship the spacious 300 square foot suite is situated just around
the corner from the Atrium elevators, which you will pass through more times
than you can count over the next week. Featuring a King size bed, floor to
ceiling mirrors and a large sliding glass door that leads out onto your own
private balcony, the interior of this suit itself is 30% larger than a standard
Ocean-View Suite.
