But first, I want to mention last year's spring break... I always forget that I have this thing so I always write about my trips way after they happen. I went to Atlantic City with Julian, Dmitri, and Bruno and even though the weather was terrible outside, the trip itself was really fun! We learned how to play Craps, my new favorite casino game, and it happened in the most movie-esque, just really really cool way. Can't explain it, you had to be there.
So THIS spring break I went on my first cruise ever with Sharifa and Katie. (March 19-23).
We flew to Miami and after figuring out how to smuggle on an extra bottle of liquor onto the boat (I won't reveal our secrets), we made our way to the port, hopped on board through surprisingly easy check-in, and got settled in. First stop was in Key West... so we had to go to the famous Fat Tuesdays on Duval St. and visit the southernmost point of the continental USA! There was a HUGE line to get a picture in front of it... which is ridiculous since you could just take a picture next to wherever everybody was waiting and it looked just as good. Fat Tuesdays is awesome and delicious and I definitely recommend going there! There's a bajillion flavor combos of rum slurpees so it's like 7-11 times a thousand.
We made our way back to the ship for the next 24 hours until arrival in Cozumel, Mexico.
I'm tired of writing so we will just fast forward and say that by the end of the trip, we had made our own group of friends consisting of 4 guys from some college, Aggie & Damien, and Claudio & Denise (and their son & daughter who joined us for dinner).
