Day one

April 9th 8:30 pm

Woke up at 4:30am to catch a 6ish flight to Houston. From Houston waited an hour for connecting flight to Ft Lauderdale. Finally got some sleep on the plane because the ocean is nothing to see a mile up. We land and get to the baggage claim and find out that it’s not our carrousel. We find ours and get our bags, get to the shuttle and get packed like sardines. A couple minutes later were waiting in line to get into the customs building. We get through fairly quickly because of the wheelchair that my grandma has.

Onboard the ship is where they give me my room key/id/credit card and then pack us into an elevator to find our deck. We’re behind other, higher deck people so it was fun getting past all the old people (there’s a lot (a lot)).

Found our room, we have a nice view of the other ships (got two videos of one leaving). I go out on the deck to get the cool ocean air and I realize…. I have Internet! I message some friends (carcar (is that ok?), Sey, and Kemp) that IM ON A BOAT.

We pull out of dock around 5:15 and we’re off to sea.
