So there it is.. I have lots more pics. If anyone wants to know more info or anything just let me know =)
The Glory was awesome. The crew were all so nice and the ship was really pretty. The food was good. OH and the dining service was great. This time it was really spot on. Last couple cruises it seemed almost under staffed and this time we were in and out. We had 3 really nice waiters.
Also not to bring up a sore subject, but for anyone who enjoys a smoke.. You can still smoke on Starboard side outdoors. Not at the bar anymore but they have made a real nice section with tables and comfy chairs and couches. Also in the casino still (as a smoker that is even smokey for me) then the blue lounge and also the disco.
Thanks for reading =) Again if anyone wants to know anything specific, just ask =)

Last stop Grand Cayman.. This day started out with slight drama. We wanted to go to Royal Palms and ended up in the back of the van with the jumps seats and couldn't get out till Sea Grape Beach. So we figured we would hoof it back to Royal Palms. A litteral walk down 7 mile beach. Lots of dips in the water and about 2 hours later we hit the spot. The water all along the beach is so perfect and clear. We saw lots of fish and some pretty darn bigs ones too. At least I walked off my food for the week :)
I always love the tender ride to shore in Cayman. So awesome how big the ships are

Following an epic day in Roatan was the Caribbean deck party. That was one of the best deck parties so far. We always find "travel victims" The guy sleeping was dancing in the club like Michael Jackson all night. He looks like Zack Galifiankis and he passed out with a smile. Then the green banana hammock couple? Good lord... All I can say is she had a wig of a different color every day and he wore Tarzan outfits and elvis chops and suits. You deff see some characters.

Day 4 Roatan! This is always my favorite stop on this run. I know it gets a bad wrap. I have always had a great time in Roatan. We went to Little French Key. It was our splurge. I love love love big cats. Here at Little French Key, you can swim with Simba the Jaguar. This place was so pretty. We seriously had the place to ourselves. We did the VIP package. It was 198. Includes the Drinks, Steak, Shrimp and Lobster lunch which was crazy good, massage, horseback riding, the animals.. monkeys and theres a lion and the Jaguar swim. I wish we had more time there. We had a fantastic guy named Miguel who catered to our every whim.. he was like our cabana boy. So you will see lots of this place =)

Day 3.. Belize!! Last time I went to Belize I did the Cave Tubing. This time I really wanted to visit Goff's Caye but by the time my friend was done shopping, it was too late =( So we just hit this little beach called Cucumber Beach. It was a cute little place. I really wanted to see Belize pretty water. This was still close to town so the water wasn't all that. Still a nice day though.
Ladies theres even a Husband Daycare center

Day 2 Cozumel! We were docked right next to the Sunshine. The Serenity deck looks amazing on that ship. That may have to be the next one :D
We took a cab to Paradise Beach and then did some shopping after. The beach was very pretty. Tons of palms and flowers. Had an awesome pool. Very clean facilities. Theres pier with stairs so you can climb in and snorkel off the beach. The entrance fee was 5 bucks. Includes the beach chairs. If you want to use the water toys, it's extra.
The drinks were good. Prob not much booze in them but still good. The food coming out smelled and looked really good too.

1st day was a sea day. The entire week the weather was perfect. The sea was so glassy and calm. Day 1 was spent on Lido of course. Tried Guys Burgers which is was just as everyone says... Suer good. For breakfast we has the Blue Iguana breakfast burritos. Those were also very good. Loved the salsa bar.
The deck dj was also really good. He played a good variety of music and lots of reggae. I really miss the deck bands so the fact that he played lots of reggae was nice. He was also really nice about requests too.
We discovered the Red Frog bar was the best bar. The crew were so much fun.
I didn't capture food porn :eek:.. What was I thinking?
At sea.. Cuba in the background.. Saw lots of flying fish too
Red Frog.. Fitzroy is the man, if you sail Glory, ay him a visit =)
At dinner, the ladies dancing with the waiters

Finally Sailing Day!!! We got on board fairly early.About noon. This was cruise 14 for me so we did the VIP boarding. We kinda got a late start so it was busy at the port but the security line went very fast and we went right into the lounge and got checked in and onboard. We did the cheers program. You get 15 drinks per day and that is anything you want from the 5 beer to the 10 specialty drink. We came close to using all 15 but I don't think we ever did hit that many. I still think it's worth it. If you opt for a collector glass, the drink is included in cheers but you pay extra for the glass.

I have never done a review before. I never really see much Glory info so I figure I would give it a go =)
This was a girls cruise. We left the hubby's at home lol
This was the Glory Western sailing to Cozumel, Belize, Roatan and Grand Cayman from Miami. We live in Colorado so we had to fly in the night before. If you ever want a great pre cruise hotel, YVE miami is great. The hotel is across from Bayside Market place and you can see the ships waiting for you in the morning. The staff was awesome, we had a late return flight coming home and they stored our luggage for free and arranged a private car back to the airport to return home.
Here are some pre night pics

OMG! I am so excited for this trip in Sept, I am deff going to do the Cosul Tours. That looks like it hits everything you could want =) Thanks for posting that info :)
-
This gets me so excited I can't stand it! My friend and I are going on this sailing sept 1. Did you kinda just do the stuff on the islands on your own? Or did you do any through the ship? I find it quite a bit less to do your own thing. Everything you did looks amazing

I've been on 14 Carnival cruises and all were just terrible. I was treated the same way. I am going on Nov 28 and figure cruise 15 if im lucky will be just as awful ;)
