Cruise

Well, we're back in cold weather! We had a wonderful time on our cruise. It was really nice to be able to relax, sleep in, and get some sun. It was hard being away from Will for so long, but he had a great time with his Grann, Grandma, and Grandpa (despite having a bad cold). We had a direct flight out of GR and had no trouble getting our luggage or rental car once we got to Orlando. We drove around Orlando for a bit before heading to our hotel for the night. We stumbled across "Big Tree State Park" and saw a 3500 year old Cypress tree. It was pretty impressive. On Sunday, we took a shuttle to Port Canaveral and boarded Freedom of the Seas. The ship was very impressive. It had: an ice skating rink, rock wall, miniature golf, surfing simulator, theater, shops, multiple swimming pools, a basketball court, etc. We didn't do any excursions. We had been to these ports on our honeymoon, so we decided to take advantage of the empty ship in the mornings. We did go on shore in the afternoons to walk around for a bit.
