We arrived at the cruise terminal to board the LIberty of The Seas around 11:30 and we were eating lunch in the Windjammer by 12:00. We took this cruise 2 years ago and it took us about 2 hours to get onto the ship. I don't know if it was due to our timing, luck or a more efficient process.
Our first day was at sea and it was quite windy, but it was sunny and warm. We had no problem finding lounge chairs near the pool. The pool bar waiters were all over the place and they provided good service. We found LeRoy who was our bar waiter when we did this cruise 2 years ago and we dined in the Botticelli deck. This guy is very niice and quite funny.
Our waiter was Andrae and he was from Jamaica. This fellow did an excellent job as did his assistant. The head waiter made his way to our table almost every night and he made us feel that he would do whatever it took to make our cruise enjoyable. Our bar waiter was Corey and he was also excellent. He went well out of his way to get special martini glasses for my brother in law every night so he had at 8 by the end of the cruise. He made sure that we got our shot of the day when we missed the dining room one night. The shot glasses were very nice. The food was very good for the most part.
Our nieces used the kid's club everyday and they really looked forward to going each day.
Our last day at sea was cool and it was windy. There was very little sun most of the day. The band played most of the day and I thought they were great all week. We had someone playing the piano and violin on some nights and a guitar player on other nights. They all made the dining experience much nicer.
Our room steward was Leon and he was very nice and went out of his way to help us. We saw a few shows and most of them were good to great. Our family did not care much for their "Greatest Show" which was mostly acrobatics. The ice show was great and the juggler and comedian were also very good. We ate a lunch at Jonny Rockets on our last sea day and the order somehow got messed up and delayed our meal. They made sure that we were taken care of without having to ask for it. We arrived at Miami to return to reality and it began to rain again. I hope that this weeks cruisers have better weather. I have no complaints about RCCL only the weather. The ship is still in very good conditon also!
Also kudos to RCCL for trying to help the 500 European cruisers was had their flights home cancelled because of the ask cloud. A plus!
