Life has been busy, so Katy and I were not able to go on a honeymoon right after our wedding. So we've finally booked our delayed honeymoon. Booked a Caribbean cruise with Norwegian Cruise Lines. Flying down to Miami a day early on Friday January 4 staying at a hotel on the beach. Got the plane tickets and hotel stay for basically free with points/miles!

Then Saturday Jan 5 we board our ship, Norwegian Epic. Apparently it's the 3rd largest cruise ship in the world, pretty awesome!

We leave out of Miami and here is our path:

St. Maarten we plan to just hop in a cab or something and see the island. For sure want to make a stop at the beach right in front of the runway. If you haven't see it before, here's a pic to give you an idea!

St. Thomas, we're taking a tour on a 70' semi-cigarette boat type thing, then doing some snorkling.

In the Bahamas, we haven't booked anything yet but will likely be booking the dolphin exhibit at Blue Lagoon island where we get to go in the water with dolphins!

Then back to Miami the following Saturday. We've never been on a cruise before so hopefully it will be a blast. We are really excited. Aboard the ship we booked some shows. We'll see the Blue Man Group, Comedy Show, a Concert, and a Circus Ole type show. Also booked a Hibachi dinner for one night as well.

Can't wait, 9 days away! I think if we like it, we will be doing more cruises in the future :)

I guess they say if this ship were stood up on end, it'd be nearly as tall as the Empire State Building. Kinda interesting...

Let us know how it goes, from what you were saying it was cheap vacation.

Assuming you'll be stopping on Paradise Island in the Bahama's, just plan on exploring Atlantis and maybe do the waterpark stuff. Plenty to do there alone.

Congrats, time away is a great thing. :)
