Vacation Day 1 – travel day

Bo and I worked all day Friday then got home, cleaned up and headed out to the airport. We flew all night long, didn’t get much sleep and after a layover in Atlanta, GA, made it to Ft. Lauderdale, FL Saturday morning. Bo’s family was at the airport to pick us up and take us to the port in Miami and we spent some time with them.

They took us to this amazing cuban restaurant, I don’t even remember what we ate but it may have been my favorite food of the entire vacation! It’s a toss up between the cuban food in Florida and the Jerk Chicken in Jamaica. But man this was good and we had a blast hanging out with his family for a few hours.

We made it to the ship RIGHT on time and got to our room which was perfect.

Here is our balcony…

And the view from the balcony in port in Miami.

We had an aft stateroom so our balcony hung over the end of the ship, we spent a lot of time on the balcony watching the wake behind the ship and the MANY lightning storms going on around.


We decided to explore the ship a bit and take advantage of some picture opportunities.


I figured I’d make Jamey proud and try some Sushi. It was pretty good, I’m not much of a fan of seaweed but it was tasty and I ate most of it!

They have Vegas quality shows each night on the ship and we went to most of them. They have singing, dancing, comedy, hypnosis, etc. This was some dancing from the first night.

Then we crashed out! We were exhausted and slept for quite a while. More from the rest of the week later, I’m still trying to catch up on sleep and fighting whatever cold I caught so it’s nap time for me!
