Just got back from Eastern Caribbean on the Glory yesterday (6/30/07). Sailed with wife, 18 y/o daughter and her 17 y/o friend (the girls). Booked cruise 18 months ago and counted down the days. We were not disappointed. May have been the best vacation I have ever been on. Drove to Port Canaveral from Orlando. Spent three days at Disney prior to cruise.

Embarkation: Smooth. Arrived at port around 1:15 and they were already boarding. From start to finish took about 45 min. Only hang up was filling out a Bahamas form no one knew anything about. Went right to cabins and dropped off carry-ons, then to lunch at the Red Sail. After unpacking we headed to the obligatory "muster drill". It was hot and uncomfortable, but never gave it another thought after it was over.

Cabins: We had two side by side balcony cabins. Best decision we ever made. Had Steward open the door between balconies and had plenty of room to enjoy the views. Food: Outstanding! Burgers, pizza, ice cream, deli were all outstanding. Buffets were very good, with a different theme each day. Dining room was wonderful. I had steak/prime rib on three nights and was never disappointed. Chocolate melting cake was a huge hit with all of us. Breakfast I would recommend the sit down if time permits, otherwise buffet was fine. Girls ordered room service a few days, always on time and satisfying. Creams cafe had additional items (huge brownies, chocolate covered strawberry's, cake) if you need an extra sugar fix...and we did. There is a fee for these items...but VERY reasonable.
