We had an amazing Spring Break trip this year! Luckily this year, we didn't have to fly out super early. We arrived just after lunchtime in Ft. Lauderdale and took a cab to our resort, Lago Mar! The resort was beautiful and right on the beach. We spent Wednesday afternoon exploring the beach and pool areas, having a yummy ice cream treats before enjoying lunch at the Soda Shop! Thursday was a very relaxing day, which is exactly what we all needed. We spent the morning at the pool and the kids had a ball doing cannon balls into the pool, flips and all other sorts of tricks. We had lunch and dinner right between the pool and the beach. The kids loved this since they got to go play in the sand on the playground while we waited for our food! Friday morning we were up and had breakfast before we loaded our shuttle to the Disney Wonder!
We arrived at Port Miami before 10 and only had to wait about 30 minutes before we could go into the port. We registered for boarding, got the kids set-up for the kids club and found Pluto before we boarded the ship. We were in one of the first groups to board and that was fantastic! Since we were on the ship so early, we were able to find a table and get lunch before the crowds. We even found chairs right by the pool after we had finished our lunch - it was amazing!! Before long it was time to find our room, get settled and go to the safety drill. After the drill, Peyton & I went to the Sail Away Party while the boys went back to the room to rest a bit. Our luggage came right before dinner and we were on our way!! Saturday was a Day at Sea and we had a great time! Peyton had her hair braided and met several princesses before we went to see Zootopia, which was fantastic!! Garrison played with Daddy and caught some cartoons / movies back in the cabin since they were both feeling a bit under the weather. After dinner, Garrison & I went to the theater to see The Golden Mickeys show, which he was mesmerized by while Peyton & Daddy went swimming in the dark! Sunday was a day at Grand Cayman and we took a catamaran to Rum Point Beach, which was gorgeous. We spent the day relaxing and playing at the beach and took the boat back to catch one of the last tenders back to our ship! Garrison built lots of sand creations and Peyton had fun swimming and laying in the sun! Monday was another Day at Sea which was fantastic - we all went to see Zootopia in the theater and the kids spent some time playing in the kids club! Chad was still a bit under the weather so I went to the Mixology class we had planned to go to together. It was fun and I learned how to make a few new drinks! We wrapped-up our day with dinner and then we went to the theater to see Toy Story, the musical! Our last day on the ship was spent at Castaway Cay and it was fabulous! We got off the ship just after breakfast and we passed the time on the beach and playing in the ocean. The kids LOVED playing with the tube we rented! Peyton & I also rented an Aquatrike and spent 30 minutes biking around the ocean, so fun and quiet and peaceful! Our dinner was great and we wrapped our vacation with going to the theater for the show, Dreams! It was amazing and a great way to finish-off our trip!
On Wednesday, it was time to make our way home. We had such a fantastic time and I am very thankful for the time we had to spend together!!
Here are just a few of my favorite pictures from our vacation!
