byrdbrain55 Posted August 10, 2020 Author #126 Share Posted August 10, 2020 It is our last full day and it is always bittersweet. We picked up our photos at Pixels and did our packing for our departure tomorrow. Larry was happy to see the Sgt. Major one last time as well.

byrdbrain55 Posted August 10, 2020 Author #128 Share Posted August 10, 2020 We said goodbye to our new friends, John and Rebecca. Saying goodbye to our room steward, Felix. I still keep in contact with him via Facebook. He took great care of us. He is currently at home in India after spending months on a ship sailing back home. Good night all!

byrdbrain55 Posted August 10, 2020 Author #129 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Departure day, aka, the day we got kicked off the ship until the next one. We had to be out of our rooms by 8:30 am so we went up and had breakfast in the Cucina del Capitano area. We had a view out the back windows and just hung out until almost the last call. We had no problem with finding our luggage or going through customs. We found Cortrans and headed to the airport. We had hours before our flight and just hung out in line. Orlando is seriously one of the worst airports for TSA Security. There are millions of lines that all go into one central spot so it takes forever to get through. We had an uneventful flight home. Final thoughts... We had a great cruise and the Sunshine was a fun ship. A lot of people complain about the ship being hard to navigate but we never had any problems. We loved all of the ports. Barbados was hands down our favorite and we would love to go back. San Juan was also a hit in our book. Cruising is the best way to vacation and it is what you make it. There were a few hiccups along the way but it was an amazing trip. Fair winds and following seas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s no way I could have relived a trip from that long ago and keep it even half as accurate as you did - even with notes! 👍🏻👍🏻 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This REALLY made me miss cruising. I'm looking at Journey's cruises now if our February cruise gets cancelled. Thank you for all your hard work! We loved the Journeys cruise and 13 days was amazing. I wasn't sure I would like a long cruise and I would have been happy staying on for much longer! 7 days just isn't going to cut it anymore.
