jules815 Posted March 13, 2016 #1 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Good morning. It's a little past 4am and I thought I'd start this now while I'm waiting for my cuppa to steep. Barely slept last night, but I've got that vacation adrenaline buzz thing happening. Car will be here at 6am to take us to the airport. We're flying from Chicago into FLL, and tomorrow is the day we finally sail on Constellation; our first time sailing with Celebrity. My travel partner for this cruise is my 21 year old daughter who is on college spring break. It's raining here, so I'm hoping for no delays.

FlorenceItaly Posted March 13, 2016 #3 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Bon Voyage!! I will be following along as we board her for the TA in 19 days. I predict you will love Celebrity and her crew. We've cruised on Carnival, Princess, HAL, and RCI, but, Celebrity is now our cruise line of choice. Marie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jules815 Posted March 13, 2016 Author #5 Share Posted March 13, 2016 We've arrived at O'Hara. Very busy, but we both lucked out with TSA pre-check so we breezed through. It's raining here, but not storming. 40 degrees. Can't wait to feel that Florida sunshine. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If able, will you confirm other musicians/bands? Thanks. I am really hoping we have some fantastic LIVE music. Rumor is Captain Tasos will be coming on board to take us across. I hope this is true.

jules815 Posted March 13, 2016 Author #12 Share Posted March 13, 2016 We've arrived. Flight was delayed about 30 minutes due to a mechanical problem. Not what this nervous flyer wants to hear, but it was a smooth flight and the sun is shining in ft. Lauderdale. We've checked into the Ritz Carlton and are enjoying a few drinks poolside. Yay! We're officially on vacation! Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BikiniBlonde Posted March 14, 2016 #25 Share Posted March 14, 2016 (edited) Thanks for sharing! I'm cruising first time on Connie later this month, with my 17-year-old son, so I have a keen interest in how you and your daughter enjoy the trip. Hope you have sunshine all the way.
