A Different Type of Adventure

Wake up call 4:30am not so fun after only getting to bed at 11pm the night before and then having a restless sleep for those few hours. But knowing that the alarm is waking me for our next travel adventure makes it not seem as bad! This trip, though originally booked a few months ago, is coming at a much needed time and will give us a good break from everything.
At the airport by 6am, breeze through baggage drop, security, and US immigration - thanks Nexus/Global entry. Off to grab a quick bite and some coffee before boarding our 2.5 hour flight to Denver on route to Fort Lauderdale. Flight was uneventful though I didn't get my Cheerios breakfast option this time. Our layover in Denver is about 6 hours but we decided not to leave the airport and head downtown because it's kinda far, we'd have to clear security again and we're both a little tired. So we'll wait it out in the lounge.
This adventure isn't our typical trip....we're heading on a cruise of the Caribbean. This will be my first cruise so many new experiences for me. It will give us a taste of many of the islands that we've wanted to visit and hopefully help us find one, or two, maybe three that we'll want to travel back to and spend some time. We figured this was a great way to get a taste of each even if land time is limited. And besides who can pass up a great sale when you find one?!?!?
All ready to go....weighed myself this morning. Let's see if what everyone says about eating too much on cruises happens. Hope the gym facilities are good, it's time for me to get serious about my running training. So much to do...
