Happy New Year From Carnival Cruise! {24 Hour Giveaway}

Monday, December 27, 2010 Posted by Jolly Mom

One of the major highlights of 2010 was most definitely our Carnival Cruise to the Caribbean. It was such an amazing trip that even Lucas still remembers and talks about it on a regular basis!

Photobucket

As we say goodbye to 2010 and welcome in the new year, I'm excited to share with you guys two wonderful campaigns that Carnival Cruise Line has launched recently. Many of you may remember from a previous post that Carnival is the official sponsor of the Times Square Wishing Wall this year. If you've never heard of the Wishing Wall, basically people come to the Times Square Visitors Center and write their wishes onto colorful slips of paper, and then post them onto the wall. Then, on New Year's Eve, these slips of paper become part of the one ton of confetti that rains down at the stroke of midnight.

What's awesome is that even if you can't be in NYC for New Year's Eve, you can still have your wish, resolution, goal, or dream be a part of the celebration! Just submit your wish online. Carnival will actually print it onto a piece of confetti for you, so that no matter where you are on New Year's Eve, your wish will be part of the Times Square celebration. Click HERE to submit your wish.

Plus, Carnival just launched the "Didja Ever?" campaign where they are encouraging people to live life to the fullest. To try new things, experience "firsts", and start checking things off their bucket list in 2011! Or, as Carnival would say, "Stop saying someday. Someday starts today." Love that! Carnival is collecting the Top 100 Firsts from its more than 420,000++ Facebook fans and all of America. Of course, there will be giveaways! Carnival will help to fulfill many firsts for participants that will include everything from giving away monthly cruise vacations for four to offering once-in-a-lifetime opportunities like appearing on-stage as the opening act for a favorite band, and many other fun activities!!


Happy New Year from Carnival Cruise!  And, to top it off--Carnival has an awesome New Year's themed giveaway for Jolly Mom readers!



This giveaway is closed. Congratulations to the winner, coriwestphal!

    There are so many things that I want to do in 2011!! My life had kind of been in a bit of a rut... Then I (very very unexpectedly!!) got pregnant with a baby that I never thought I'd have!! She has brightened up my life, and given me tons of new goals! So this year, as she turns 1 this summer, I want to take her to see the ocean. I just finally was able to see the ocean for the first time while I was pregnant with her, and it was the best week I've ever spent. I don't want her to wait 30 years to see it like I did :)

    I've always wanted to take a riverboat cruise, maybe on the mighty Mississippi! What a trip that would be! Thanks
