Perfect Day at CocoCay

I started off the morning with a yoga class in the Vitality Fitness Center. The fitness center on this ship was setup very different from the last ship I was on. The entrance is somewhat discreet, but it’s that discreetness that also makes it feel welcoming. There wasn’t anyone guarding the door ready to sellContinue reading “Perfect Day at CocoCay”

Inaugural Cruise of Odyssey of the Seas

A couple weeks ago I was very fortunate to be invited on the inaugural cruise for this Quantum Class ship. The start of the journey was on Tuesday for my COVID test. I had mine done at CVS and it was very easy. I pulled into a designated parking spot and the nurse handed meContinue reading “Inaugural Cruise of Odyssey of the Seas”

Disney Springs

All good things come to an end, and today was our last day in Florida. Our flight was at 9pm so we had a large portion is there day to explore. We started our day at the Riviera Resort which is a short Skyliner flight from our hotel. Here we enjoyed breakfast at Topolino’s. TheContinue reading “Disney Springs”

EPCOT

We started the day similar to other days: breakfast. This time we didn’t need a taxi, we took the Disney Skyliner to EPCOT and then walked to the restaurant: Trattoria Al Forno. This restaurant is located on the Boardwalk near EPCOT. Traditionally, it’s a place where you can meet Ariel, but character dining hasn’t returnedContinue reading “EPCOT”

Happy 50th Anniversary Disney World

Visiting Magic Kingdom on its 50th anniversary date is for crazy people and we were those crazy people. More on the crazy stories later, but wait for it. Our day started by taking a taxi over to The Polynesian Resort for breakfast. The bridge to the resort was already backed up, but lucky for usContinue reading “Happy 50th Anniversary Disney World”

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Our day started with a short taxi ride to Disney’s Old Key West Resort for breakfast. I had one of my favorite meals here on our last trip so I was excited to try it for breakfast. I ordered the Banana Bread French Toast, Brian ordered the Sombrero Omelette, and Colton went for the MickeyContinue reading “Disney’s Hollywood Studios”

Magic Kingdom

Oh what a day! We started our morning by taking a taxi from our resort to The Grand Floridian Resort. It was my first time at The Grand Floridian and I loved the southern charm of this hotel. We ate breakfast at The Grand Floridian Cafe. Colton had Mickey Waffles with fruit, bacon, yogurt, andContinue reading “Magic Kingdom”

Day at Sea

Before I get into the details of my day I want to tell you a little bit about why this was my first cruise. The main reason was that I didn’t think cruising was for me. I was worried about sea sickness. I thought it would be too stuffy. I thought it would be tooContinue reading “Day at Sea”

Cozumel

We made it from Galveston, Texas to Cozumel! It was another full day of activities. I started my morning with yoga and room service for breakfast. There is something so special about sitting on your balcony, sipping coffee, and watching the sun come up. Our ship pulled into port at 9am so at around 9:15amContinue reading “Cozumel”

Liberty of the Seas

I woke up at around 5:30am this morning because my motion-sickness medicine started to wear off. The good news, it’s working! I took some more meds and felt better relatively quickly but now I was wide awake. I headed up to the sun deck to catch the sunrise. Gorgeous. Then, I headed to the treadmillContinue reading “Liberty of the Seas”
