Many months ago, Cahl booked a cruise for he and I, to celebrate my graduation. We've been looking forward to it for months, and it was so nice to get away and spend some time together. We took an overnight flight down to Ft. Lauderdale, and got there early Thursday morning. We spent the day exploring the beach and shops, resting, and enjoying a Thanksgiving dinner at our hotel restaurant. Stacey and Andy flew in late that night as well, so we were excited to meet up with them the next day.
Friday we spent doing more exploring, shopping, and swimming at the beach and pool. The beach there is beautiful, and we loved opening our balcony door so we could hear it!
Saturday morning we had breakfast at an amazing little French bakery, then wandered through a farmer's market on our way back to the hotel. Once we had everything packed up, we caught a ride over to the port and boarded our ship- the Oasis of the Seas. Stacey had not been on a cruise in many years, and this was Andy's first, so it was fun to show them around and tour the ship. The crew was busy decorating it for Christmas, and it was really beautiful.
Sunday and Monday were both sea days, so we really enjoyed not having anything to do and just relaxing. We played a lot of trivia, found a lot of ducks (Cahl even found Jesus!), took some naps, and enjoyed all the food.
