Great day shopping in Fort Lauderdale, buying all the stuff we wish we’d brought from home! It also kept us out of the morning rain. It was nice and warm however at 25 degrees and cleared up later on. 😎

Today we arrived in Florida after 6 rather long days at sea. It was pretty chaotic getting off the ship as everyone on board seemed to be going to the Kennedy Space Centre (although apparently it was only 500). It took us 2 hours from joining the queue to disembark,…
