Well after a disappointing announcement this morning (our para sailing was canceled due to high winds) we decided to stay aboard ship. With most of the guests on shore we had the pools, decks, food all to ourselves. The day was mostly sunny so took advantage of some time to sit in the sunshine.

Off the coast somewhere....... Day 1 at sea was a trip. It was so windy they had to close the upper levels of the outside decks.

Unfortunately we were not allowed to take pictures with the dolphins; the handlers took pictures for you and then wanted to sell them, 4 for 20 bucks. But [View Full Entry]

After waiting at the airport for what seemed like an eternity we finally made it to Florida. Hoped a bus for Port Miami. Bus ride was a trip. There was a women that was the most obnoxious women we have ever been around. Luckily the trip was just 30 minutes. When pulling into Port Miami you could see several ships, some with climbing walls some with water slides. Huge floating cities. Pulled up to the gate and was greeted by very friendly porters to take our luggage. So far so good. Finding Lee and Ed was a little difficult but finally [View Full Entry]
