We took another cruise!! Travel Day :)

We've recently returned from an 11 night Southern Caribbean cruise with Royal Caribbean's Explorer of the Seas out of Bayonne, NJ.

We had such an amazing time two years ago that we decided to do it again.  Same ship, same room, slightly different itinerary. We left NJ and had 2 sea days, then stopped at Labadee, St. Martin, San Juan, Antigua and St. Kitts and then 3 sea days on the return to NJ. And friends joined us this time :)  

We left on Saturday, November 2nd to drive to NJ.  We stayed in the Country Inn & Suites.  They provided room, breakfast and parking for the duration of the cruise.  Awesome!

We met up with Steve and Michaela halfway to NJ and had lunch at Cracker Barrel.  We arrived at the hotel about 3:30ish or so.  Check in was a breeze.  Steve and Michaela settled in nicely.  We had a few troubles with our room, had a room switch, a little more trouble, and then finally after 2 hours or so, we were settled in.

I was pretty tired from the drive and was hoping to nap, but with the room snafu, I could only catch a few Z's in a chair.


We ordered Chinese, ate dinner together in the breakfast room, then headed to bed.  We had a big day in the morning....our driver was picking us up at 9:30 to head to Cape Liberty and Explorer of the Seas!!
