Day 1

Today we left our hotel and went back to Sawgrass.  There were things others were sorry they didn't buy so we went back.  We left Sawgrass Mills at 11:05 and drove to the Alamo Car Rental return at the port.  How easy, straight down 595 and when it ends and just before port security it's on the right.  Gave back the car an took the shuttle to the ship.  When you are in a suite, you don't line up.  We took our suitcases inside the terminal and very nice fellow took them.  We met Daniel our Genie (Butler guy) and he escorted us on the ship!  No lines, no waiting anywhere.  By 12 noon we approached our room and our luggage was waiting for us!  Daniel showed us around, answered all our questions and we went to the Coastal Kitchen (for suite guests only) for a delicious lunch.

For our dinner we went to Central Park 150.  It's the nicest specialty restaurant on this ship.  Dave ordered some awesome wine and gave us a brief history of the wine he ordered.  The waiter was impressed with this knowledge of wine!  Dinner was delicious!  For dessert they brought us a huge carrot cake!  After dinner we went to the Broadway production of Grease!  Daniel saved us seats, front and center.

We have unlimited internet, but it's slow!  These pictures are not in order but at least they downloaded.
