Our Recent Cruise - November 2010




Florida Keys & Cozumel, Mexico
November 2010 Cruise

In hopes of trying to make a special memory with our youngest son, Oliver, Doug took us on a post-Thanksgiving Carnival Cruise out of Miami, Florida. We were all so EXCITED to get away to a warmer climate...as SLC was in the thick of very cold temps and a big snowstorm...Little did we know that even Florida would experience a cold front and we would have lots of rain on this particular trip!

Barring the cooler temperatures, we still managed to see the sights in the Florida Keys and explore Cozumel, Mexico. The Highlight was the Mayan Ruins...We took a number of photos but our most favorite was one that included our Oliver!

There was something very wrong with lounging on the ship in our swimsuits and a sweater, taking cover from periodic rainstorms and the harsh wind gusts...But...A Cruise is still a Cruise and we're not complaining! The food was fantastic and I think Oliver enjoyed eating as much as he liked, whenever he pleased!
THANK YOU, DOUG, FOR YOUR GENEROSITY & ALL THAT YOU DID TO MAKE THIS TRIP HAPPEN! WE SO APPRECIATED IT!!!

After debarking the ship, we spent a day and a half in Miami. Oliver has a former High School friend that is attending school in sunny Miami...Brady picked Oli up at our Hotel and we didn't see them again until time to head to the Airport. Thank You, Brady, for showing Oliver a great time!

Miami is a really interesting city, as we quickly discovered, and I really enjoyed our walk along South Beach!
It was a GREAT trip!
