This morning I made a quick trip down to Galveston to see the Carnival Vista and Carnival Sensation docked. The Carnival Vista was docked at Cruise Terminal #1 and the Carnival Sensation at Cruise Terminal #2. The main reason for this trip was wanting to see the Carnival Sensation in Galveston. Carnival has the Carnival Sensation temporarily using Galveston as its homeport for now, but when the Carnival Sensation resumes cruises the ship will be sailing 4 & 5 night cruises from Mobile, Alabama. I did not want to miss out on an opportunity to see the Carnival Sensation in Galveston because the ships' schedules have not been predictable lately due to the shutdown. Here are some pictures I took during this visit to Galveston:
Carnival Vista
From Harborside Drive I was able to see crew members moving around on the Carnival Vista. A few crew members were walking the ship's Lanai on the Promenade Deck and others were on the lifeboat embarkation deck (it looked like they may have been doing safety training). I did see a few crew members on the balconies. These crew members are likely new to the ship and still undergoing their mandatory quarantine before being able to move around the ship with the rest of the crew. Here are a few pictures of the Carnival Vista from today's visit to Galveston:

Carnival Sensation
I was able to see a couple of crew members on the Carnival Sensation, but did not spot very many crew members. There were several large trucks parked in between the cruise terminals bringing supplies to the ships. The Carnival Sensation is one of Carnival's four remaining Fantasy class cruise ships and is Carnival's second oldest ship in the fleet. It was exciting to see this ship docked in Galveston. Here are some pictures of the Carnival Sensation:
