Rare JustinPlusLauren Posted January 30, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Hi everyone! We just got back from our cruise aboard the Emerald Princess from January 18-28, 2014 and I've started to write about it on our cruise blog called Justin Plus Lauren - it's where I blog about all of our trips! We have so many photos and videos, plus many stories to tell from our cruise. It would be awesome if you would like to check it out. I gather so much information and travel tips from these forums, so it is my pleasure to share everything back with the Cruise Critic community from our vacation. :) Please also if you have any questions about the Emerald or any Princess questions in general, feel free to ask them here and I would be happy to try my best to answer them! It will take me a long while to post everything since we have 11 days worth of pictures, journal entries and video to sort through, so bare with me! I'll try my best to get everything posted as soon as possible and will post here when I have new entries. The first blog entry is about our flight from Toronto to Florida, waking up bright and early to embark on our adventure! http://justinpluslauren.com/caribbean-cruise-flying-to-fort-lauderdale-fl-pre-cruise/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the Emerald stuff is soon to come - just gotta get thru the pre-cruise hotel stay first :) We enjoyed the hotel stay but of course, the trip was all about the cruise :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JustinPlusLauren Posted February 1, 2014 Author #4 Share Posted February 1, 2014 I've posted the second blog post! It is all about our pre-cruise stay at our hotel in Fort Lauderdale - Cambria Suites. If you're thinking about staying overnight before (or after!) cruising in Ft. Lauderdale, I've posted a review of this hotel (we loved it there!). Hope everyone enjoys! Will be getting to the posts about the actual cruise very soon!

Rare JustinPlusLauren Posted February 5, 2014 Author #23 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I'm going through more photos today and it is keeping me warm on this chilly day! Thankfully I have the day off work but Justin had to go in....there is a big snowstorm today in the Toronto area and all I can see out the window is snow blowing around. Brrrr! Stay warm!
