Freedom of the Seas 14/1/07 - 21/1/07
Having decided to celebrate Jane's birthday on a cruise, it seemed obvious to go for the biggest ship out there and book the Freedom. This we did about 1 year ago and here follows our experience and opinions.
We flew out Heathrow to Miami arriving an hour late in Miami (as the plane had left there 2 hours late the previous day..knock on effect) and were met after exiting customs by the RCI ladies. Then had to wait for half an hour for a bus. Spent the night at the Biscayne Bay Marriott, which was very nice. First saw the Freedom at breakfast, as the hotel restaurant had a stepped terrace design, so everyone had a view over the harbor. Tried to get upstairs a bit to take some distance pictures of the Freedom, only to find loads of the hotel had been taken over by NFL security...great!
