Cruise Days 1 & 2

I went on my first cruise earlier this month with my mom and my husband and I absolutely LOVED it! We were at sea for 3 days and stopped in Cozumel, Mexico for a day. It was a short 4 day 4 night excursion but it was amazing nonetheless and a much needed break from school and work!

Wednesday March 4th we left for the airport around 2:30pm. Our flight wasn't until 5:45pm but we thought it would be nice to get there early and have a kickoff meal and drinks so we went to Chili's in the airport and got drinks and some appetizers.

 So excited!! 

Saying good-bye to the snow.

The weather when we arrived in Florida!

We got to Ft. Lauderdale and got a shuttle to our hotel for the night. We ordered a pizza and watched some TV in our hotel room before going to sleep.

The next day we decided that we wanted to leave for the ship around noon (it set sail around 4pm but you can still get on the ship early.) We took a shuttle to the marina and went through customs and walked onto the ship. It was honestly the most gorgeous ship!! 

We got on to the ship and got some drinks and walked around. We found our rooms and then went up to one of the highest decks while the boat set sail. They had such fun music on and I loved the atmosphere, everyone was just having such a good time!

After that we went to get ready for dinner. The dinner was unbelievable. It was 4 courses and you can eat however much you want. Like this guy at our table got 2 entrees lol. There was so much food already I would never need to do that but I thought it was cool. I had the best pasta I've ever had in my life, it was so good. All of the food was amazing. We shared our table with two very nice other groups, one of them was from England and I loved their accents. 

After dinner we did some more exploring of the ship. We went to a welcome parade at 10:30 and then just explored the ship until about 2:00am!! There was so much to see and do and so many cool bars and places to even just sit and relax.

 One of the most gorgeous pictures I took. This was when we went to the front of the ship at night and had our "Titanic moment" LOL. We were the only ones there. 

We were some of the only ones still out at 2am.

Days 2-4 coming soon!! :)
