Carnival Fantasy Cruise Ship Daily Activities

Never been on a cruise? I figured it might be useful for some to share the daily itinerary for our 5 day Carnival Fantasy Cruise from Charleston, SC to the Bahamas. This list of activities could give you a feel for how the day flows on the cruise ship and the different activities that may be available during the cruise. Since I have only been on 1 cruise I'm not sure how common the activities are, but I have to believe the cruise companies have a formula for putting together the schedule to make sure most folks have something to do all day long while on the boat.
