We're taking a car to an airplane to a bus to a ship...

Well, I'm leaving you all again... and tomorrow is going to be a LONG day.

We have to be ready to leave by 7am.
Grandpa is going to drive us to the airport so we can be there at 7:30.
Our plane departs at 9:30 (please, let our plane leave at 9:30).
We arrive in Ft. Lauderdale around 1:00.
We take a bus from the airport to the port in Miami.
We get on the Carnival Cruise Ship.
Bon Voyage.... we're off by 4pm.

Yes... I realize we just got back from Florida. But, that was a "visit the family" trip. This is the "we're having a baby in July so we won't have a summer vacation trip" trip. We wanted to go on a cruise and they only allow pregnant women to cruise if they are less than 24 weeks along... so we're going NOW. (I'll be 20 weeks at the end of the cruise!!!)

We're going on a 7 day Carnival Cruise from Miami to Nassau Bahamas, St. Thomas, and St. Maarten. We've set up shore excursions that include swimming with Sting Rays, visiting a butterfly farm, and relaxing on the beaches. We also have a few days at sea.

I expect us to have a blast. I've been on 3 other cruises and have loved every one of them. Hopefully... Zoe will be a flexible a traveler as she usually is and she will thoroughly enjoy the cruise too.

See you in a week!
