I have been away for over a week on a 7 day cruise out of Galveston, TX on the Carnival Conquest. It is my favorite ship for the obvious reason that it's theme totally is the Masters' paintings. Yes, the ship is opulence personified as you will see by photos I will post in the up coming days. Wonderful colors are displayed everywhere; in Van Gogh's disco, Henri's disco, Renoir dining room, Monet dining room, Toulouse Lautrec theater, etc., and the main atrium encompasses all the Master's paintings and is really over the top. I am starting with the Grand Pent House Suite which was our home for the seven days. I hope that you enjoy!
