We had a leisurely breakfast for ourlast morning at the Embassy Suites followed by packing our bags and returning the rental cars to Orlando Airport. Karen, Wendy and I had a treat for our husbands and children as we had hired a Hummer limousine to transport us from the airport to the cruise terminal. The Hummer had seats for 20 guests so there was plenty of room and we had a great one hour drive. Casey our driver really got the Hummer moving swiftly along the highways!
We were all breathless when we sighted the Freedom of the Seas - it is such a magnificent and huge boat! We skimmed through customs and boarded the boat. OMG! This boat is just stunning. Our stateroom was beautiful and exceptionally clean, the staff everywhere are so attentive and courteous, and the food is divine. No sea sickness encountered by any of us, the boat is so huge that it just devours the waves and the only gentle "rock" is felt up on the top deck restaurant (but nothing to bother us). We enjoyed a relaxing afternoon exploring the boat, shopping at the ship's promenade deck, checking out the gym, day spa, pools, ice rink, rock climbing wall, flow rider,pools, library, all the restaurants and the bars! We also enjoyed the opening night "welcome on board" show in the ship's auditorium. Had a wonderful night's sleep in an extremely comfortable king size bed even though it is a late night!
