  1. Hello,

     

    This is my first RCI cruise, onboard the Liberty of the Seas. We decided to purchase the specialty dining package for 5 nights and the first night done right special. I saw that on the FNDR promotion RCI makes the reservation for you. As far as the other nights, when do I select the restaurants? Once onboard, or on My Cruise Planner?

     

    Also, which specialty on the Liberty is your favorite/what are your favorite things to order?!

     

    Sorry if this has been asked previously, as I'm sure it has, but I am a newbie and I have LOTS of questions!!

     

    Thank you for any help you can give!!!

  2. Hey y'all,

     

    I see many people on here ask this question, but I haven't seen a definitive answer... unless I missed it.

    It will be my first time on RCCL, and I'm very excited... currently I'm in a JS on deck 10, about 4-5 doors down from the RS. There have been a few openings for JS on deck 9 as of today, should I switch? Will there be a good deal of noise if I stay on deck 10?? Anyone have any experience?

     

    Also, what is your absolute favorite thing to do on the ship? And what is something that can be skipped?

     

    Thank you in advance for your assistance!

  3. Great review with pictures! I was wondering if you noticed what line dances they are currently doing. I know there is the typical Cupid shuffle, Cha-cha slide, Wobble, but do you know if there are any newer ones that seemed to be popular?

     

    Thank you very much for reading! They are still doing the typical ones, nothing new at all! :)

     

     

    I've been following your review, life got in the way and forgot about it, then it popped up again so I was able to finish just now. :) We don't have a cruise booked but were on Glory in May 2010 on the same itinerary. I really enjoy reviews of itineraries we're considering but also enjoy those that we've been on as a way to "relive" some of our cruises and to get ideas for the next time. We also went to Trunk Bay on that cruise and would love to get back there someday. Your pictures are beautiful and you really got some great ones of the Forts in San Juan. Thank you for taking the time to do a review.

     

    Thank you for coming back to finish reading!! The Glory is a great ship, definitely my favorite! Thank you again!

     

     

     

     

    Where is the spaceship on Grand Turk? I haven't seen it.

     

    It's just a small little exhibit to the right, past the shopping center.

  4. Just read your entire review. One of the better reviews because of all the great picture.

    We will be on the Glory again in Feb.2017 with 24 family and friends.

    We are counting the days.

     

    My question:

    I don't remember having the option at dinner in the MDR to order a steakhouse item at a cost. Is this something that is offered every night?

    I saw where someone ordered a filet mignon at a charge of $20. I would definitely do that.

    I love eating in the MDR and we never go to the specialty restaurants. But, if they offer a specialty steak in the MDR, I would do that.

     

    Thank you very much for reading! That will be an awesome cruise!

    The steakhouse addition in the MDR is offered every evening. The plates are the same as you would get in the Steakhouse!

     

     

    Great Review

     

    Thank you for reading!

     

     

    Thanks for sharing!

    Do you happen to have images of the Fun Times?

     

    we are on the same ship same Itinerary Oct 15th

     

    Thanks for reading! Unfortunately I do not have the Fun Times, I'm sorry!!

    Hope you have a great trip!

  5. Hi Britbrie,

    Thanks for such a wonderful review and great pictures. :)

    Also congrats on getting into law school.

     

    I am thinking about doing my very first review of my cruise on Vista and I was wandering what were the size dimensions you used for your pictures as they seem like a perfect size for the review you did.

     

    Thanks again,

    Take care,

    Mark. :)

     

    Thanks for reading!! Thank you, law school is a scary thing. haha.

     

    That is awesome, I would love to read your review of the Vista. I used Flickr for my sharing program, and used the Medium 640 x 480 size.

     

    Good Luck with your review, I'll be looking out for it! :)

  6. Finally, after hours of waiting at the airport we boarded our fancy plane.

    And with that, our vacation was over. Overall, it was a lot of fun and I can't wait to see where we go next year.

     

    THANKS to anyone who read this, sorry for the expedited conclusion... but law school has taken over my life.

    If anyone has any questions or comments, feel free to chime in! Thanks again for reading!

  7. After collecting our luggage, our wait at customs was super easy, quick, and painless.



     

    We were escorted to our shuttle back to the airport, and after a short drive were dropped off at the American Airlines counter... which took FOREVER.

     

    28266897264_d1eef88686_z.jpg

     

    Finally after 1 hour and 47 minutes in line... yes, you read that correctly. We were in the airport, and ready to relax.

     

    We found our gate, did some shopping, and realized it was lunch time and we were getting kind of hungry.

     

    So we stopped at some Mexican restaurant, I cannot remember the name!

    We ordered some nachos, which were okay. Nothing fancy.

     

    After lunch, we went back to the gate... and waited some more. After several hours of waiting here, our gate changed. So, we were off to the other side of the airport.

     

    Once at our new gate... surprise! Your flight is delayed for 2 more hours! Yayyy. :(

     

    Mom and I walked around some of the shops in the new area, and I stopped for some fruit.

  8. For my entree I got the Prime Rib

    Mom ordered the Shrimp Creole... which was gross. I mean come on, we live in Louisiana. What were you expecting? haha.

     

    28882705895_132bc256f5_z.jpg

     

    Finally it was time for dessert... the wait staff brought out a cake as a congrats for getting into law school/graduating college, and for my birthday. It was super nice!

     

    28807414851_f6045c7e4c_z.jpg

     

    Since I couldn't eat cake, I ordered the baked apple.

    After dinner, the family decided to all meet up in the Amber Palace for the last show. While walking on deck 5, my mom's aunt decided to stop and check her email... so I told them I was going to go use the restroom.

     

    Afterwards, I stopped by a random slot machine... and on the first pull won $60!

    I guess I was gone for a little while, so it was funny when the family came looking for me and saw me with a few people standing around me. haha. :D

  9. We took our time waking up on the last sea day. While getting ready, we watched the Morning Show on tv.



     

    Mom and i decided to go have breakfast in the Platinum dining room.

    28851635296_a7f6eef2b3_z.jpg

     

    I started with the fruit plate...

     

    28265629364_0461a59bff_z.jpg

     

    For my main plate, I got the steak and eggs which I ended up sending back... because I don't like the whites of my eggs that underdone. Gross.

     

    28267729373_3355e8fcac_z.jpg

     

    Mom got the Huevos Rancheros

  10. After the show, Eric had a Guess that 80s Song, and it was a fun time for everyone. Lots of dancing, drinking, and singing for everyone that attended.



     

    28826394795_cdc6b2bce8_z.jpg

     

    We stayed at the 80s party for a little while, and then went with some of the family up to the casino... what a shocker. :roll eyes:

     

    I ended up being fine with it, because I won $70! yayyyy.

     

    28211661523_cc58eca253_z.jpg

     

    We stayed in the casino for a little bit, and then went back up to the room to relax and watch a movie on television.
