Sail Date: Apr 2015
Cabin: Junior Suite

Husband and I booked three weeks on Freedom to reach Pinnacle by end of May in March 2014. We drove down from Nashville Saturday and spent the night in our Orlando home before heading to Port Canaveral on Sunday. We used the Radisson Hotel for parking to facilitate landside travel while in port between cruises. Once at the terminal, the longest wait was getting luggage through security. We collected our set sail pass, had the "Welcome Aboard" picture taken and in our cabin, a junior suite", 15 minutes latter.

After eating a quick lunch at Windjammer, we made reservations for dinner at Sabor's that night and started unpacking. The checked luggage was waiting for us in the hallway. The junior suite had more than enough storage space even after placing our suitcases and dive gear in the closet. Having a double wide balcony gave both of us plenty of room to stretch out during the day.

After lifeboat drill, we hit the gym to work up an appetite for Sabor's. The queso fundido and tacos was great but filling. Even limiting the amount of chips and pico did not help and we did not order a main dish. By the time the dessert tray arrived, hubby and I only ate the churros and chocolate leche. We left the flan and other 2 desserts untouch. Sabor's is worth the surcharge.
