As promised, a continuation of the first day. So many bars, so little time. No matter, there are still 10 days in front of us. 😉 There doesn’t appear to be a ‘wine’ bar as there is on Princess, which, in the grand scheme of things, means nothing.

It’s been a long day. First plane at midnight…second at around 7:40 AM…arrive at FLL by 11 AM…ish…on the shuttle by 1:15…arrive port of Miami by 1:45.

Hopefully you have been noticing a few minor cosmetic changes (and if not, I guess the word ‘minor’ is not quite small enough.) Professional … Read more
