20 Ways To Eat Your Way Through Carnival Vista

There is a lot to like about Carnival Cruise Line’s new Carnival Vista.  Above the deck SkyRide takes riders on a high flying ride that includes amazing views of the ship and the ocean.  Water parks, sports-oriented attractions and some unique entertainment options can keep cruise travelers busy with plenty to do on their vacation.  It may be difficult to find time to enjoy their nicely-appointed stateroom, complete with 24-hour room service from the standard menu plus premium offerings for a small fee.  Perhaps the biggest challenge when sailing on Carnival Visa: Where to eat.  Carnival guests will have to choose between 20 different venues each and every day.  Let’s take a look:
