This was the 4th cruise for my wife and I and our first to the Caribbean.

We took the Freedom out of Fort Lauderdale over the Thanksgiving week (8 day cruise). We live in Florida so we drove down on Saturday morning. The port was busy but it was easy to drop off bags, park and find our way to the proper embarkation point. We arrived a little early, around 1100, and went through the line very quickly. We waited in a holding area until our group was called for perhaps half an hour. Overall, a quick, hassle-free embarkation.

We were allowed into our cabins at about 1330. We had a balcony room on deck 10 and the room, as always, was very clean and well maintained. Our room keeping staff did an outstanding job with our room this cruise. I appreciated that they always had the ice bucket filled up (never had to ask once the entire cruise) and any drinks were also put on ice. Our room steward checked with us every day to make sure we had everything or if there was anything else he could do for us. There timing was always perfect. Out for breakfast and by the time we got back the room was made up. Out for dinner and our room was tidied up and the bed turned down.
