Summary

John and his family just got back from a five-night Caribbean cruise aboard Carnival Cruise Line's Carnival Conquest. A ship based out of Port Everglades that does five to eight-night sailings. John gives us a complete review of Carnival Conquest, including the kids program that his daughter took part in.

A lot of cruise lines pass Grand Cayman by, because it's a tender port and it would take too long to offload thousands of guests. A company in Grand Cayman has an idea that would eliminate the tender operation. It stems from a cable car concept and will move 20,000 guests-per-hour from ship to shore.
