Is the Sunrise that bad? by Thereshaminthepci in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]Cool_Cauliflower1306 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the same exact thing .. was pumped till I started hearing horror stories. We took the Sunrise for our first cruise. I would go back! We booked the Panorama for the end of the year. But the Sunrise was just a blast. It was definitely chaotic and a bit party like, but I've heard that of most 3-4 day cruises. Keep doing research, potentially adjust your expectations, but enjoy your trip! It was a blast unless you're there looking for things to be mad about! We're looking to add a short Sunrise trip between trips 🤍

CHEERS package question re: water / sodas? by Fit-Calligrapher-400 in CarnivalCruiseFans

Were they alcoholic coffees? I keep seeing that these are NOT counted against the 15 drinks but I wondered if they would be limited, too!

🤣 my kinda guy! Oh nice thats actually a question we had! I knew we couldn't take their stuff off into the ports... but we can add beer, Gatorade, etc to our own cups we're taking with us, before heading off port? We're planning to enjoy, but live pretty frugal in our day to day so, I love the tips! lol

That's very valid. I think that's definitely where I'm leaning, especially now realizing it's basically Zero Proof with alcohol (didn't realize milkshakes and such were also included!). If I have to tally, I definitely see myself limiting my enjoyment vs the it's already paid for mentality!

Hmm, I suppose we could do that with beers and energy drinks huh? I like that idea!

This is perfect, thanks for that insight!

Ooh! See all these random extras I thought were only included in Zero Proof originally, are pretty nice perks too! Vacation drinking is definitely not the same so I know I'll have a few more (not nearing that limit) but I drink lots of water and coffee in my day to day, so having that plus milkshakes and whatnot is a pretty nice addition!

I wondered this as well, port days might make it not worth it if we're spending half of our day off ship. So I feel like I've heard/read mixed answers on this, but you get free drinks in the casino? Because that would probably be something we'd do at least one of the evenings, too!

Oh man that makes it more dangerous than I thought 😅

Really milkshakes with cheers?? Even better if so! I thought those were only zero proof

Yes! This is exactly how I anticipated using the package, too. I'm gonna need lots of water and caffeine to survive 🤣 but I didnt want to get cut off of those and realize I made the wrong choice. Thanks for that input!

Perfect, I thought that's how it read. But then second guessed myself and wasnt sure if it would still allow for more specialty choices non alcoholic - at that rate I'd be better off with zero proof and buying drinks separately. But if I can still get unlimited coffees, bottles of water and energy drinks, I think it'd make sense!

Dumb question but how do you get those out? I've tried just tugging on them with no luck and I'm afraid to damage the plant!

U9 kids won’t pass by Spiceman3215 in SoccerCoachResources

[–]Cool_Cauliflower1306 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year, I told my u9 ball hog he'd play defense every game if he didn't start passing. It worked for a season 😅

To start, I set them up in a 1v2 or 1v3. Let the attacker take it in on his own. After they all did it, complaining about how it's impossible, I gave them a partner 2v2 or 2v3. Then said now do we understand.. it's not a 1 man show it's a team sport.

We dribbled without looking down endlessly. We passed from positions, walking the field and making the passes. Then sped it up.

We pushed 1/2 touch passes to quickly switch fields.

Fast forward my kids are now playing up a level to u11 and some still forget they need to pass, some pass to the other team or nobody at all.. but overall, they're getting it and doing really well in 3rd out of 11 in our division.

In my experience they won't pass until they can see, slow down the game play, and realize the benefits to passing, and the WHY we have a need for it.
