I'm on my way to Fort Lauderdale

I will post when time and internet permit.  I don't know if I will be able to post while on board.  We are on the Trade and Press Cruise!  Two nights at sea exploring this gorgeous ship.  We sail on Tuesday afternoon and back in Fort Lauderdale on Thursday morning.  I am travelling with my friend Jeanie who is a travel agent at Maritime Travel.  She asked me to be her roommate.

We have a nice hotel close to Sawgrass Mills, so tomorrow we will be hitting the factory outlet mall.  Great getaway, weather is awesome!  The forecast shows 86F today in Fort Lauderdale.  It's going down to 84F tomorrow and then they have a cold snap into the high 70's.  I think I can handle that.

The Celebrity Edge was built at the STX Shipyards in France.  We are on the first passengers to sail on this ship. 
    130,818 gross tons
    306 meters/1004 ft. long
    39 meters/128 ft. wide
    2,918 passengers
