Review summary

really enjoyed the itinerary and the people working the cruise.  BUT Carnival had the Glory torn apart. No water slide or upper pool, that whole portion of the ship was off limits.  Lots of construction noise during the day and they brought us to port early so they could load more construction supplies. Felt like I was used to help cover the cost of construction.  If the ship isn't in the condition it was sold to us in we should at least be informed. Poor decision by Carnival I believe.
