A
My exciting Carnival Paradise cruise experience consisted of quite a bit of walking. I mostly walked around the ship, looking at each floor. There are fourteen decks on the ship. The three most popular decks for me were Lido, Promenade and Atlantic.
The Lido deck, which is Deck 10, takes you outside to the pool and the buffet restaurant where breakfast, lunch and dinner are served. On the outside are stairs which take you to the back of the ship where there is another pool and a basketball court. You can look out at the sea and enjoy the ocean. It's amazing to watch the big waves and you can see the path in the water left by the ship.
The Promenade deck, which is Deck 9, is the one on which I spent the most time. On that deck is a casino (娱乐场). I just looked at people play with the vault (拱顶) machine to see if they would win a prize or nothing. As you travel farther down the casino, you see to your right some people playing poker and farther to the back are a bar and several lounges for comedy events. On the Promenade deck you will also find the photo gallery where pictures taken by the Carnival Paradise's photographers are displayed for viewing and purchase.
Lastly, the Atlantic deck, which is Deck 8, has an entrance to the main theater, the Normandie Theater. This is where stage shows, some comedy events and games are held. This is also the floor where our dining room was—the Elation Restaurant. The food was actually kind of good. My favorite part was the fact that they have shops.
