Any advice on things to see or do onboard the Glory that are well hidden and maybe easy to miss? This is my first time on this ship and was wanting any info on the ship and things to "not miss"..thanks!
There is a nice balcony on the front of the ship that most people dont know is there. Its on deck 7 (Empress), all the way in the front right corner is the door that leads out to it. Maybe another door front left corner, not sure. It has a wonderful view of where the ship is heading. My wife and I would take a glass of wine and head out there at night. Very romantic, but be careful the bridge is right above and behind you, and can see everything you are doing. One night we were out there and there was a full moon and stars everywhere. It was BEAUTIFUL!! So check it out.

I was on the Glory in 2007. It's a huge ship and might take you a few days to learn your way around. Get one of the little pocket maps they have. There is a Deli (window) on the Lido deck that has great sandwiches, also there is an oriental (window) on the Lido deck, but it seemed to always be closed when we walked by. If you eat at the buffet and it is crowded, go upstairs to where the fish and chips place is, there seemed to always be tables up there.
I don't know of any secret or hidden places, the balcony the another poster was talking about is nice, but if you are short, like me, you can't see over the railing. We were out there the day we got ont he ship and I had to stretch to see below.
Here is link to my photos of the ship. Enjoy your cruise.
