FORGET Santa Claus – on
Carnival Cruise Line this year the
festive season is all about his
nemesis, The Grinch.
As part of Carnival’s
partnership with Dr. Seuss
Enterprises, the line will feature
shipboard experiences by the
“cantankerous curmudgeon,”
with the giant green character
appearing decked out in his
signature ‘Santy Claus’ costume.
Carnival president Christine
Duffy said the Grinch will feature
in both scheduled appearances
and spontaneous pop-ups.
“He will playfully disrupt
the on-board festivities and
steal various items from crew
members throughout the
ship,” she said, with the Grinch
also featuring in face-painting
sessions and both live action and
animated versions of the Seuss
classic How the Grinch Stole
Christmas to be shown aboard
on Christmas Day.
But don’t worry, Santa will
also appear as part of Carnival’s
annual holiday celebrations
which will see the ships
thoroughly generated with
Christmas trees, wreaths and
mistletoe.
