Nine thirty, be the first guest of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, one of the best of the city. It is almost impossible to see everything in the museum in one visit, so just relax and lose yourself in knowledge and in the great art work.

Some are big, some are small, some are just so pretty you have to take them home. You have to be careful, not to step on one because it's painful; especially if you're bare-footed.

They even have cars and trucks you control from outside the car or truck.

But still the future for the industry and for the Carnival is bright as more people choose holiday cruises. How and what global force have contributed to the growth of the cruise line industry?
