My DW and I just got home from driving home from Miami after our Honeymoon cruise on the Valor from June 10-17th. I guess I will do my best to keep this review organized.   Background: My DW and I decided for our honeymoon to go to Disney world from Philadelphia by train. The train was ok but I don't think that I would choose that rout again. We are first time cruisers and we were in disney till the 9th when we went to fort Lauderdale.

Embark: We woke up in our Ft. Lauderdale hotel (Sheriten Yankee Clipper GREAT PRICE ON PRICELINE 1/4 of what it usually goes for!) at about 10:00 AM. We drove our rental into the Hertz at the airport and called a cab. We got into the port at like 2 and got in several lines to get on the ship. We waited a while but the line moved quickly and it seemed very organized. We finally got on the ship and went to our cabin.  

Cabin: We stayed in a balcony on the 10th floor room 1055. The room was alot bigger then we had imagined. I figured honestly that it would look like the room on the train we had just gotten off a week earlier. We really liked the location because the view was amazing off the balcony. We asked the cabin steward Julio to unlock the Mini-bar and we proceeded to place all of the bottles and cans into the top drawer of the desk. We loaded the fridge with water and Gatorade.     Read more
