The Dream's replacing the Glory in Canaveral....Maiden voyage will be this December....sold out already I believe. I think the Glory is moving to Miami or Tampa....

I totally agree about the shopping! I also feel that you have to go into the city to get the best deals (the further you go - the better the deals). The deals aren't as readily available at the port. WOW about the Dream!!!! A whole water park!!!! Like 7 slides?!!!! You just convinced us!! I know what cruise we are taking next! When does the Dream come to Canaveral? I want to start looking for trips on that ship already. And do you know the ports it visits? Is it similar to or the same as the Glory? Thanks for your insight!

I'm glad everyone had a great time. I also did a lot of shopping and got some great bargains. Never give them what they ask because they will always take less money. I loved the water slide also. Have you seen the new dream ship? It has a whole water park on it. Like 7 slides!!

Luv2Vacay, Forrobin, Sushilover (and all of you other July 11 cruisers) - Yea...I didn't have one favorite part. I liked the first three ports. We had an awesome time on our beach break in Cozumel. I enjoyed spending time with Jackie and Cros on our Belize tour (sorry again Forrobin) - seeing the ruins and animals on the River Wallace. Finally, I thought Majahual was the BOMB with $20 hour massages, $1 Coronas, $1 delicious tacos! I loved that you could "bargain" in the gift shops too! The Bahamas didn't excited me...can you say, "Been there done that!" Onboard I enjoyed Ryan Fitzpatrick. We did a dedication for our anniversary and got a free bottle of champagne! We decorated our door and got a Ryan Fitzpatrick trading card. (Hehehe) I also love the slide! I love the coconut monkeyheads! They were awesome! My husband and I both got one! (We didn't love the price, but we swore the monkeyhead oath to waste money and not complain! I wasn't just complaining...LOL!) Overall, I thought the drink prices on board were reasonable. I also loved this "game" called "Mixology" at the casino bar on Thursday. We had to answer drink questions, and we got a free drink. Alen and I answered a question each and both got free drinks. I could have answered more, but I didn't want to be a hog! I also loved the food on the ship! I loved the Emerald Supper Club! Sushilover, I ate a lot of seafood too (which I don't normally do)! I had lobster twice, fish and chips a lot, many, many helpings of sushi, and some fish at dinner. I loved the chocolate melting cake with butter pecan ice cream. The strawberry soft serve was super good also! I very much enjoyed the chocolate buffet on Thursday too! I love that we won the liquor raffle and won four free bottles of Cruzan rum! YEA...we started drinking it last night...we got two pineapple rums and two coconut! I loved our server, Larry. I loved our Maitre d', Slyvestru (or something like that). I liked our room stewart, Gusti. Also, last but not least...I loved Funship Freddy! (I know sounds dorky, but I don't care!) Funship Freddy is cool! See why I could pick just one thing!

I have to go. I meeting some friends to make cards. We make cards through a company called Stampin' Up! I love it! I love making anything! Talk to you lovely July 11 cruisers again soon!

lol. I was at the Sushi bar a few times. They had sushi in the red sail buffet once day also. Great food on the boat. I ate a lot of fish and seafood. I'm planning on doing two weeks in a row next year. That's how much I liked it. The waterpark in Atlantis was amazing and the snokling in Belize is priceless. We also did the C ruins in Costa maya.

Hello all--"loglady" and "luv2vacay"--glad I got to meet your as well. Sorry about the backwards tour of the ruins, but that is okay. Lucky you who gets to go so soon. Have fun!

My favorite part????? Excursion: Costa Maya and the Jungle Beach Break! Awesome excursion and very reasonably priced.

Of course, having a "suite" on the Glory was "sweet"--(homophones, I think). Those rooms were so nice! Hope we can cruise again at the same time!

It was great meeting you both (Luv2Vacay and Forrobin) too. Hmm...I have to think about what I liked the best and get back to you (or else I would jump up and say "Everything!"). I'm jealous about your cruise in October! Alen and I were joking that we might have to book another cruise soon too! I do miss it already! It was really awesome!

Re: Glory July 11, 2009 anyone?

theloglady — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 20:41:11 GMT

I totally agree sushilover! It was awesome!!! I thought maybe I would run into you at the sushi bar (hehehe). I'm glad you had a great time!

Hello everyone!! Cruise was the BEST! So sad it's over.....thank goodness I have another one coming up in Oct or I'd be really depressed, LOL!

It was great meeting you Crystal, Allen, & Forrobin.....we really enjoyed hanging with you!!!

Wat did you all like the best??

Hey Forrobin (Jackie = Luv2Vacay or Jacci),

What is up? Forrobin, you told me to keep in touch! Here I am!!! Can I get a Woohoo for the July 11 cruisers! Go us!

Let me know if you start a new thread about our vacation to share with others. I will share. We had an awesome time! Let me know about your trip!

As promised...here's a last "shot out" to my July 11 peeps! I'm on my way to the port! In a few hours, I will be "on a boat" like The Lonely Island! See you soon! Bon Voyage to us!!!!

I see... vacation has officially started for you! NICE!!! I like Universal more than Disney (because we don't have any kids). Mummy Returns is pretty awesome! I like the fire part! I need to buy a poncho for the cruise (just in case). Thanks for the reminder! Sounds awesome...are you going to see the IMAX movie at Festival Bay on I-Drive? I know you said that you were going to do Ripley's Believe It or Not and that is on I-Drive. ONLY ONE FULL DAY LEFT!!!! You need to tell me all about Cirque De Soleil when we meet! It sounds amazing, and we've never done it!
