Review summary

The Carnival Glory is a beautiful ship to sail on!  It was kept extremely clean--no illness worries at all.  My room attendant was the most gracious young woman with a fabulous sense of humor since I'd always walk in the wrong direction when leaving my room and she'd kiddingly say, "Other way!"  The dining room had nice choices for dinner--I loved the braised rabbit!  It feels special when people remember your name and all servers, barkeeps, etc., did.  The casino was the jumping place with great music, fun people at the bar, and making new friends at the machines!  There are quiet places if you need a moment--lively places, different bars to check out, food EVERYWHERE, and FUN was in the air!!!!  I can't wait until my next cruise!  (I traveled alone--no family nor friends and had the time of my life meeting new people and not having others to worry about!  Ok, call me selfish but I deserved it!  LOL!)

Cabin / Stateroom

The room was spacious and very comfortable. 3 closets held all my clothes with no problem as well as drawers. There is a safe which made me feel much better. The bathroom is fine--enough counter space and shelves for all personal items. The shampoo actually wasn't that bad--and there's a blow dryer so leave yours at home.

Ship tip

If you're lost don't worry--so is everyone else! That's what made it even more fun--trying to figure out where we were and then not caring! THAT's a vacation!!!!!!

I enjoyed reading about your wonderful cruise.  Thanks for sharing your comments with all of us. I am sure that all of us get lost on cruise ships.  I have discovered lots of new places on a ship by getting lost.  It is always an adventure.
