This year instead of presents we took the family on a Western Caribbean cruise. 9 nights on Royal Caribbean, Explorer of the Seas cruise ship. We flew to Miami on Wednesday 12-13 and boarded our ship on Friday 12-15 threw Sunday 12-24. Then rented a Toyota Rav and drove to Orlando. We went to Universal Studio's Monday 12-25 (Christmas Day) threw Wednesday 12-27 and then flew back home at midnight on 12-28.
Jason has TSA pre-check so him and the boys were able to easily go through security at the airport. I do not have TSA pre-check so they had to wait for me to get through the line, but it wasn't too bad. The boys read books while waiting for the plane. For the plane ride to Miami and back home we had 1 lay over... at which time we swapped travel partners. Connor and I sat in front of Jason and Kaiden and then the opposite. We did the exact same thing on the way home too. We all watched movies on the flight. We had originally booked 2 queen beds in our hotel, but the fan in the bathroom was broken and constantly on with an annoying loud buzzing noise. After a few hours of this we switched to a bigger room with a king bed and queen sofa bed and most important no annoying fan noise! We had planned on exploring Miami on Thursday, but it was rainy and windy all day. So, instead we played in the hotel gym for a while and then watched Star Wars movies in bed. We were all actually happy to just relax.
