At last count, Seuss at Sea<\/i> was on 20 (and soon to be 22) of Carnival’s<\/a> 24 ships, so it’s safe to assume the cruise line wouldn’t make that big an investment unless it knew what a hit it would be. And so it is, among the kids who participate and the parents who can drop them off. The concept, a part of Carnival’s Camp Ocean<\/i>, is also part of the phenomenon that keeps Doc Seuss alive, almost a quarter-century after the death of the author who created it, Theodor Geisel. Seuss at Sea surfaced while we were on the Carnival Freedom<\/a> last year. This will give you an idea what it’s like…<\/p>\n
