The Freedom

Caribbean, Family


She’s Freedom of the Seas and on our sailing out of Port Everglades transported somewhere around 4200 passengers on a week long adventure into the Caribbean Sea. Yes, some of us had misadventures even getting to the ship and Carol didn’t even catch up to us until Tuesday. Yes, we missed our beach day in Labadee. Yes, we sailed through the same cold front twice experiencing 20 foot waves some of which even flooded the deck where we were dancing as well as cool rainy weather. Even with all of that our Savoy at Sea group had a glorious time together dancing on board, prowling San Juan, St Maarten/St Martin, and St Kitts as The Cat Herd, slurping on umbrella drinks, and dancing for eight days! This was our Fourteenth (and counting) Annual Swing Dance Cruise! What a glorious celebration of family and friends!
