Countdown to Carnival Miracle Western Caribbean Cruise!

August 5, 2019 by Alisha Leave a Comment

In 34 days my mom and I will be living life on the high seas! Our last cruise was to Hawaii and that was 14 years ago and the last time we took a mother/daughter trip without the kids or hubby was probably more than 10 years ago. We are way overdue for a girls trip!

Carnival Miracle Western Caribbean Cruise is a 7-day cruise that leaves out of Tampa and we’ll be stopping in Grand Cayman, Isla Roatan (off the coast of Honduras), Belize and Cozumel.  I travel a lot but cruising usually takes more planning on my part because I want to be prepared since its harder to get things you need in an emergency without paying an arm and a leg. 

If you’re going to be traveling out of the country make sure and have your passport and whatever other documents you need.  Leave a copy with family in case something happens.  I also did a post with tips on traveling out of the country.

One of the first things I like to do is pre-book excursions. I found a really great deal online for an excursion that I want to do that wasn’t through the cruise line.  Yea I’m taking a chance by doing it on my own but I’m also saving a ton of money. I’ve read all the reviews and talked with the company a lot and I’m pretty confident we most miss the ship.  And if we do I’ll just start a new life and learn spanish…LOL! [Read more…]

10 Tips When Traveling Out of the Country

June 18, 2019 by Alisha 2 Comments

One of my blogging boo’s Lashawn of Everyday Eyecandy shared an article a few weeks ago about the importance of taking a trip as an adult with your mom.  Well I was already way ahead and my mom and I have planned to kick off her 75th birthday in August by taking a cruise to Cuba.  Well the current administration took a big ol’ shat on our plans and on June 4th they abruptly banned all travel via cruises to Cuba effective…June 5th.  You can still travel to Cuba but there’s like fifty eleven types of restrictions and we had already paid to cruise and wanted to take that route…so on to plan B!  (more on that to come in an upcoming post)

Now back in my day…seriously like less than 20 years ago you could travel with less restrictions.  But since 9/11 a lot has changed and its imperative that you have all of your ish together when you plan to travel outside of the United States.  Here are 10 tips to help make travel easier and save you all the stress and headache of not being prepared when traveling out of the country.
