Although a few bumps in the road both my doing it turned out to be a GREAT cruise.
Pre- cruise spent Saturday in Cocoa Beach and Orlando. Stayed at The Courtyard by Marriott. Did their fly/snooze/cruise package,
Sunday shuttle picked us up at 9:30 and 45 minutes later we were on the Freedom. By far the quickest we have ever been on a ship. Major kudos to RCI far superior to Carnival.
Aft corner. Very nice. Cabin was pretty much what I expected. Only saw our cabin stewardess twice the whole week, once on embarkation day and one other. Did a nice job!
