Living out loud in the Carolinas

  • Today we woke up at 6 am to beat the rush to the free breakfast at the hotel. Then we came back to our room and had a we nap. We woke up, packed up, got ready for the day, and took a scary taxi ride to the port. Traffic rules don’t seem to really…

  • This morning we woke up extra early to get dressed and pack our last minute things.  We do the express walk off to avoid standing in line at customs.  That means you carry your own bags off the ship and you don’t have breakfast onboard.  OMG! we had SO much stuff! I swear we didn’t…

  • Our 17th anniversary!!!  So we’re back on the ship and CSP said he wanted to go swimming.  Up to the pool we went.  We weren’t there 20 minutes before these crazy high winds came out of nowhere!  One poor crew member was running around trying to tie down all the cushions to the lounge chairs…

  • Castaway Cay Day!!!  Our 17th anniversary!!!  So, back to the island!  While CSP was out riding his bike I read my book out on the mini sofa. All around the cabanas are trees and lush vegetation.  Birds were flying everywhere!  In and out of the cabana.  Hummingbirds and sweet little tiny colorful birds. They were…

  • Castaway Cay Day! Our 17th Anniversary!!! It’s a big day with lots to talk about and tons of pictures to share so I’m breaking it up into parts. Last night when we entered our room we found an envelope.  Inside was a map of Castaway Cay, a lot of information, and 2 wristbands for our…

  • Sea Day!!! We slept in a little then got ready for brunch at Palo!  Mladen was our server again.   We had a fabulous view for brunch and an even better meal. You start with a fun cocktail.  CSP chose a mimosa and I got a bellini.   Brunch is a buffet set up in…

  • Grand Cayman Day! We slept in a bit and missed breakfast.  We’ve been to Grand Cayman a few times and the one port adventure we wanted to do was sold out so we opted to stay on the ship again. We got into our swimsuits and went up to Cabana’s buffet for lunch.  CSP was…

  • Costa Maya Day!  Another port we’ve visited before, so we decided to enjoy the empty ship again today.  We woke up early and went to the buffet in Cabana’s for breakfast.  Costa Maya was pretty crowded with cruise ships today. There was even a little ship wrecked on the shore.  After breakfast we went back…

  • Cozumel day!  We woke up early for breakfast at Cabana’s buffet.  On the way back to our room we stood in line to meet Pirate Stitch! While we were waiting for Stitch, Pirate Mickey was meeting fans and doing pictures.  When I spied across the atrium….Pirate Minnie!  She blew kisses to Mickey then came over…

  • Sea Day! We woke up early and had breakfast at Triton’s.  Then we went back to our room to get ready for the day. We took our time and hung out in our room until it was time for lunch.  Right back to Triton’s for lunch!  Then we went to the Buena Vista Theatre to…
