The six ports in a row will be a little tough, but I know somehow we will just make due.

You'll be fine, it's not like you will be constantly worrying about making the next excursion and getting a early sleep. We've done a couple 7-day cruises with 6 ports and one sea day. We were concerned about getting time to relax so what we did was pick a couple of the ports to just go to the beach & kick back We still get to see the Island and it wasn't always rushing around on an excursion. Another thing we like to do sometimes is just walk the town; hit the shops and have a long lunch/drink overlooking the sea. It's all about having quality time with your partner and doing what you want to do, ya know!

We have late seating also.

We have been on Mercury 4 times, and it is almost exactly like Galaxy.
