"Go West Young Man".....no wait...."Go East Young Man"!!

The age old saying has always been, "Go West Young Man, Go West!" Carnival Cruise Lines however, believes that West isn't the only direction that's possible from Tampa. Beginning next year, The Carnival Legend cruises to the Bahamas! Starting from Tampa and sailing around the Southern tip of Florida, cruise passengers can enjoy Nassau, Carnival's private island - Half Moon Cay and to top it all off they stop and explore Key West on their way back to Tampa.

I would prefer the ship use the two days at sea for getting back from the Bahamas by sailing straight to Key West first. You could then use the two days at sea for relaxing all the back to Tampa.

The other thing I wish they would change is the time of evening the ship leaves Key West. By leaving at 6:00PM the cruise passengers miss out completely in the daily watching of the sunset and the boardwalk celebration that follows. I believe the boardwalk celebration to be a major highlight of a visit to Key West. I would think they could leave a little later for the benefit of their customers, but no doubt leaving late in the evening would cost the cruise line more.
