Ultimate margarita… I’ll be the judge of that.

Why do people conduct work phone calls on shared shuttles? The last lady we picked up and squeezed on here, immediately sat down and dialed a work call. It’s 8pm on a Friday and the whole shuttle is hearing her talk about real estate properties for 10 minutes. Are we supposed to be quiet? Listen in? (Eye roll)

I would have started a rousing rendition of Sweet Caroline!!! 😂😂😂😂

I thought she was on our sailing. Didn’t wanna be rude at the beginning of the week. I think she said she’s getting on the Elation. I’m not sure. Mostly just heard her loud phone convos and her singing to the radio. 😐🙄

Good point. Best not to make an enemy who turns out to be your neighbor.

We took an Uber to Sandbar because it was raining. Now, it’s not so we are walking back to the hotel. First, a beach stop. We walked out the back of Sandbar to Cocoa Beach.

After the beach, we walked around Sandbar and to A1A.

And over to Ron John. I was first at cocoa Beach when I was 18, and I thought Ron John was so cool. It wasn’t as massive then and the parking was not as extensive as it is now.

Stopped a saw the fountain at the 4 Points and noticed there’s a $4 Bloody Mary special for breakfast over there. We may check that out in the am. We need to run to Alvin’s World and grab extra flip flops before boarding. Then we were back at the Courtyard.

This hotel is nice… here’s a quick tour of the lobby. The bar closed at 11, but the lobby store is still open. We grabbed some cocktails to enjoy on the balcony. 

[MeganGC1983]

The conference area and the doors that lead to the parking area and across to Cocoa Beach. I’ll show more of that in the morning.

Well she wasn’t off the phone or not performing long enough to really talk to. 🤦🏼‍♀️

More room pictures… I’m currently drinking Prosecco and switching out luggage tags, calling kids, and getting ready to CRUISE tomorrow. On this day, on that social media site, one year ago, I posted about being ready to cruise again. Little did any of us know, it would take SO LONG. But TOMORROW… I finally get to return to cruising!!

Good morning! It’s travel day. I woke up at 4… rolled around for 45 minutes,

Great way to start the day by making DH happy. 😉🤣

I posted that. Went to the bathroom and came back to this. Oh my!

That was DH's thank you for the 45 minutes of "rolling around" this morning.

I am going to put the over/under for the number of margaritas consumed by Megan this week on Cheers @ 35.  That's 1/3 of her possible maximum daily allotment, but as the great Saint Greg can attest, there's going to be peaks and valleys hitting that magical 15 per day.

Your ship, already here, when I got up at 530.  The view off our balcony

What’s special about the dogs in Ohio?

Dogs in Ohio are awesome. Well, all dogs are awesome, my dog just happens to live in Ohio! 😉

View from hotel is nice. Is the hotel oceanfront?

It’s what they call beach adjacent. It has a parking lot and a walkway to the beach. I’ll get some pictures of that shortly.
