Caribbean Vacation Part 1 | Miami and Sea Day.

By some miracle I convinced Austin to take me on a Caribbean cruise. Alright, maybe it wasn't a miracle and simply free flights and super cheap cruise deals but whatever works, right? Darci and Britten came along with us because vacations are always more fun with family! We flew out on Friday to head to Miami. Austin and I ended up getting delayed for 3 hours in the Denver airport (no fun) so we didn't get into Miami until after midnight. When we finally landed, we got a taxi and went to our hotel where Darci and Britten were waiting for us. The next morning was when the real fun would begin....

Day 1 -- Embarkation.
After we slept in from our late night flight, we headed to the cruise port to board the wonderful Carnival Victory. I will say, I have been on 4 Carnival cruises in the past 3 years and this ship was my favorite! We spent the rest of the day exploring the ship, stuffing our faces with food, and working on our tan by the pool. The food was delicious during the whole trip (like melt in your mouth, order second and thirds, eat so much they have to roll you out of the dining room good). 


Day 2 -- Sea day.
The second day on the ship was a sea day. We started the day off with the seaday brunch. I had the most delicious french toast covered in fruit loops. I should have snapped a photo of it, it was that good! We then hit the pools and water slide. The ship had 4 pools and a water slide so there was plenty of options to keep us cool in the blistering heat. We also took some swings in the mini golf course, played some shuffleboard, laughed at the comedy club, watched some movies under the stars next to the pool, and of course stuffed our face with food (like I said, i liked the food)!

Flying to Miami. Austin was sooo worried about Ebola but we survived! :)
