Review summary

Carnival's GLORY has a terrible layout: you feel like you're living in Chutes & Ladders by having to go up to a specific floor to get to the back of the ship and having to go down to another floor to get to the front of the ship . . . we were on the Glory 7 days and were never completely "comfortable" with the crazy layout of the ship.
