We were a bit rested and then gathered up again\u2026 headed in to the \u201cfree breakfast\u201d \u2026 well normal \u2018free\u201d is not much\u2026 normal type stuff, some fruit, cereal, juice, waffles, pastries and this one did have some eggs\u2026 not tried.  We had a little and then checked out and grabbed bags to get back to the airport so we could catch yet another bus that would take us to the cruise piers\u2026 one does not do the other\u2026 the hotel bus was out so we had to wait some time\u2026 most of us out front clogging the front door so they had to get us out of the way\u2026 sometimes it works that way\u2026<\/p>\n

The problem that occurred to me quickly was the number of riders and the seating in the bus was not going to work in one trip\u2026 so I figured that we should just \u2018first come first serve\u201d get on that bus and go\u2026 don\u2019t stand around and try to figure out if we could all get in\u2026 not going to happen\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"1-NIK_1498\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Part of the group and , yes, they had all ordered special t-shirts to be recognized as a group\u2026 yep I wore one too\u2026 <\/p>\n

We got to the airport and found the cruise desk and got signed in\u2026 a good thing as it was a pre-check of documents and stuff so when we hit the cruise pier we were a bit more fast tracked through the lines\u2026 nice.  <\/p>\n

I am one that can\u2019t just set and wait so I made several journeys up and down the \u201cbaggage\u201d area getting in some steps.  but while I was looking out the window toward the \u201cpassenger pickup\u201d area I spotted this cab\u2026 they all advertise something but ? <\/p>\n

\"1-NIK_1501\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It is Miami so why not advertise something that might gather a few more passengers? <\/p>\n

the bus ride to the pier took us through Miami (downtown) and by the baseball stadium but the windows on the bus were not washed so the pictures were all \u201cunclear\u201d .  We arrived at the pier and just pretty much walked right on through, a few checks and stops for pictures\u2026 yes they still push the pictures and drinks\u2026 that is how they make their money\u2026 it isn\u2019t the price of the cruise it is the extras they can coerce you into\u2026 We gathered up for a group picture at the first stop and later in the day we viewed that picture and \u2026. short of any other words\u2026 it was bad for 70% of us\u2026 if you bought that one you would have to cover over the yawns, closed eyes, weird looks and various other things\u2026 oh well\u2026 we knew from previous experience there would be more\u2026 <\/p>\n

It was a pretty long walk up the ramps, and back and forth and then onboard\u2026 grab an elevator and up a few levels and then down a very long hall to our room near the back of the ship??? I need to go off on a tangent here a bit\u2026 if you take a cruise\u2026 try to get near the middle of the ship for room assignment\u2026 it will reduce all the up and down and side to side if you happen to be in a bit rougher seas\u2026 Now on this trip we did hit some white caps out of Miami but didn\u2019t bother me\u2026 and we were not in the middle we were near the back, but was good if you wanted to get up to Deck 9 for food, deck 5 for the evening dining\u2026 etc.\u2026 we were close to the rear elevators and easy getting to much of the stuff we wanted \u2026 other than the main stage which of course is in the very front so it was a long walk (900+ feet) to that end to get to the stage\u2026 now one issues with the rear is also you are closer to the \u201call night music\u201d in the smaller clubs\u2026 and on this ship the \u201cboom boom\u201d of the base reverbed in our cabin\u2026 now for me\u2026 just take out the hearing aids and poof no problem\u2026 no so for Sherrie\u2026 anyway\u2026 pick cabins near the middle no matter what deck you choose inside or outside\u2026 it is the pivot point of the waves if you are heading into them\u2026 or away\u2026 <\/p>\n

We headed out of Miami pretty much on time\u2026 and we had a balcony room so I spent some time out watching as we left.  <\/p>\n

\"1-NIK_1542\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It would seem that the pirates are still in abundance in Miami?  or was that a tour? <\/p>\n

\"1-NIK_1557\"<\/a><\/p>\n

our pier was near the coast guard station and the smaller boats were making multiple runs up and down the channel\u2026 and waving to the cruise boats\u2026 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Since we had signed up for group dining in the early dining area we all would meet up every night\u2026 so that we did\u2026<\/p>\n

\"1-NIK_1575\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I know it is the first night out as we are all still in the single vision t-shirts\u2026<\/p>\n

\"1-NIK_1576\"<\/a><\/p>\n

different faces, different angles\u2026<\/p>\n

\"1-NIK_1577\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That pretty much id\u2019s the group\u2026 not a rowdy bunch although we learned later that some were in the younger days\u2026 ?<\/p>\n

AS I was leaving the lower area of that dining I caught this picture\u2026 yes like walmart you can see anything on a cruise as well.  sometimes you see too much and just can\u2019t \u201cun-see\u201d  it\u2026 these two, almost dressed were there waiting to be seated or ? not sure<\/p>\n

\"1-NIK_1578\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After dinner we returned to our room and the daily animal on the bed\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"1-NIK_1581\"<\/a><\/p>\n

? elephant or ? <\/p>\n

After a brief rest we all went to the evening show in the main theater\u2026still wearing our \u201cgroup\u201d shirts\u2026but after several attempts at pictures I got involved with a bigger camera and got a few \u2026 not pro type pictures but it is a group shot. or two or ? <\/p>\n

\"1-NIK_1590\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now I post several because it is very hard to get 14 people to smile,, look at the camera, stand still not be blocked, etc.\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"1-NIK_1593\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"1-NIK_1597\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And we got someone else to push the button and made me stand in.. luckily I didn’t cause any damage to my new camera\u2026 <\/p>\n

With that we ended the first night out\u2026 tomorrow was a \u201cat sea\u201d day\u2026 Nice to rest up after rushing in and out of airports and other things to get into this.<\/p>\n
