Cruise - Western Caribbean

Friday, March 15 we flew to Miami for our cruise.  We had two days/nights to enjoy Miami before the cruise.  Friday night we went to the arena to see the Miami Heat play the Milwaukee Bucks.
Saturday we enjoyed lounging in the sun by the pool.  We called it our practice day for the cruise!
