mcfam5 Posted April 27, 2008 #7 Share Posted April 27, 2008 We sailed our first family cruise on the Glory in October and loved her. Such a fun ship! We had excellent service over all, great food and tons of fun. Planned to sail her again sometime for the Western Carribean. Glad you had a nice trip!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Islandtude Posted April 28, 2008 #10 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Just back too. Not too bad a week. Foneguy said most of it. Food was just ok, my dining room service was a 6/10 at best. Bar service in the dining room was horrible, even after I ordered a bottle of wine the first night, no offer of even the wine menu once the bottle was gone. Room steward was exceptional, dont think there couldve been a better one on the ship. Communication was the biggest problem we had. Went to Nachi Cocom in Cozumel, probably shouldnt spread the word about it since it was soooooo quiet there, maybe 10-15ppl total, the food was good and the drinks kept coming. Great service over all. Belize!! Took the best excursion there. We did a pilot your own boat on the Belize river. Was a great 5 hours. We saw a ton of wild iguanas, howler monkeys, and crocs, even saw a few blue herons. The guide was very knowledgable. Nassau...HA what a wasted stop. Spent about an hour on land and then went back to the boat and the very empty pools and slide. Embarkation and debarkation were pretty painless. Arrived in Orlando on Friday night, rented a car and drove to Cocoa Beach (Sheraton Four Points I highly recommend it), dropped the car at Dollar in the morning and they shuttled us right to the terminal, pick up by Dollar was a bit more umm hairy, guess it was just volume so we waited just a little for the shuttle but it was smooth from there.

Nanatochase Posted April 28, 2008 #11 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Hey Islandtude...I was at Nachi Cocum also. Were you the one in the pool with the 2 sweet kids? It wasn't many others there so I'm trying to find out if it was you and your wife I spent so much time talking to. You're right, that place was nice. Although I got way to much sun and was sick all day Tuesday. I finally felt like doing stuff on Wednesday. Needless to say, I didn't go to shore in Belize. I don't really like to tender anyway. Well, if it was you, I really enjoyed talking with you and your wife. Talk to you soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
