Our first stop of the cruise was Key West, Florida. The kids were excited to explore a new place with their cousins and Aunt Lauren.
This was our first time seeing the outside of the boat up, close and personal, and it was impressive.
As we walked along that mammoth ship, we kept saying, "This is surreal!' The kids compared it to the Titanic.
We decided to keep it low-key in Key West by only taking a quick stroll through the main town area of the harbor.
Ellie and Aubrie just couldn't resist the quaint romantic setting of old-town Key West as they embraced in front of this statue. This pose was all their idea!
This being Key West, we had to stop at the Original Key Lime Pie Shop for a treat.
Our kids also loved all the "wildlife" around town. We sighted several wild turkeys strolling around, had lizard and snake photo ops in the shopping center, and encountered tamed exotic birds
(that's an interesting oxymoron!).
All three of our girls loved getting to know this little white bird in one of the shops we stopped.
Teyah continually talks about having this parrot stand on her shoulder!
Key West was a fun, low-key warm-up to the adventures that lay ahead.
