family, just returned from a seven-night Caribbean sailing aboard Carnival Glory out of Port Miami. He's on the line this evening. How's it going, Howard? Doing great. Thank you so much. Yeah, thanks for being on the show and sharing your experience about Carnival Glory. Now, before we get to the ship, let's take a step back.

Let's talk about why did you want to sail on Carnival Glory? sharing your experience about carnival glory now before we get to the ship let's take a step

back and let's talk about why did you want to sail on carnival glory well originally we're

scheduled to go on the carnival dream almost the same dates but uh two exactly book that

cruise was canceled because it made into a journey's cruise so um instead of going out of new

Orleans around trip seven day they went from new orleans to san 11 today, so we got canceled. But also we wanted to make sure we did something from my sense fall break. Yeah, okay. And in Arizona, we'd take out breaks a little bit differently than East Coast, and so it was a perfect opportunity, and we saw that Glory was a couple of ports we'd never been to, and so we definitely wanted to hit those.

And still stay within the same time frame.

Very nice. So you're based over in Arizona, so, of course, you had to get to Miami.

Logistically, how did you get there?

We flew actually two days early. As I mentioned, TV for in a couple of blogs.

We'd like to get there a couple days early,

and just in case there any hurricane traffic, where the port might have to be changed,

so forth, so we're there nice to knowly. But also, if nothing happens, we've got a couple

of great days on the beach out there, too. Yeah, yeah, very cool. So getting to Port Miami,

how was embarkation for you?

Embarcation was excellent. Really no need for a fast of the fun because Port of Miami is so efficient in processing passengers. And so we're through a security line, security checkpoint,

and then to the chewing for the other lines, and it was so quick and easy.
