With my suitcase in hand & phone in the other, I made my way to the gate. The airport was filled with business men & sleeping people, which made me want to be one too. I'm not really a morning person, especially at 5 am. I also probably looked like a homeless person with my flip flops, a messy bun, no make up, a pair of jogging shorts & a big baggy sweatshirt. I planned to changed before we landed so I didn't look too bad when I got on the ship. My parents decided they wanted to go on a cruise when school ended & they gave me no chance but to go. I know what you may be thinking, why wouldn't you want to go on a cruise. Well you see I am an only child which some may say is a blessing but for me it is totally boring. i never have fun on family trips because its always just my parents and I. They don't let me bring friends or cousins along because they want us to spend quality time together & for me to make friends, which isn't really easy for me. I try my best to have fun on our trips but I always end up in the room or whatever alone on my phone or laptop while my parents are out partying & having fun. I just really hope this trip is different.

Once we landed & we were finally off the plane in Miami, we took a Uber to the ship port. Miami looked gorgeous, so of course I was taking tons of pictures of the city. Then when we got to the boat I jumped out of the Uber & grabbed my suitcase & vans backpack. It took a little while to actually get on the ship but once we did my parents had to wait in another line to check-in. As we waited these obnoxious teenage boys were screaming & being so loud so i looked up at them & I was speechless. I could not believe what I saw.
