Hello people. I just got back from the Glory this morning and let me tell you we (children and I and other family members) had a wonderful time. We started with embarkation which went as smoothly as anything can go with about 3500 people checking in at once can go.
We were on the ship by 12:30 pm and were directed to our cabin. The cabin stewards were still cleaning up from last cruise guest but we were allowed to leave our belongings in the cabin. Went up to the Lido deck where lunch was being served. Let me tell you the lunch area of the Glory ship was huge. I have only been on one other cruise (Sensation) and the area is much bigger. The food array was numerous and if someone didn't eat it was because they didn't want to.
Before departure muster drill had to take place (this is the only thing I hate about cruising but it is for our safety). Ship left around 4pm and we were on our way. It was choppy for a while (Remnants of Hurricane Maria).
