On Tuesday, as the Carnival Imagination was all tied up alongside Key West, she was bumped by the maneuvering Carnival Fantasy. No passengers were injured and the ships sailed safely from the ports. The ships only suffered a minor cosmetic blemish. Still must have been an interesting sight for the passengers. I wonder if anything will be on YouTube?

U.S. Coast Guard are now investigating the incident.

The Carnival Triumph was set to call on New Orleans for the first time yesterday until mother nature had its way. The whole gulf coast, even as far as over here in Galveston, got rain. Although near Mobile, AL and New Orleans, LA, it was heavier. Carnival decided to push the Inaugural call back to today. As a result, she will sail a modified trip from 4-Nights to 3-Nights.

Over in Mobile, Alabama, the Carnival Fantasy was all ready to be the replacement for the recently departed Holiday, when her call was also delayed. The 6-night cruise will now be a 5-night trip.
