so we did leave port last night and we headed out to sea as you can see in the background and instead of going straight back to Port Canaveral from the Bahamas we headed down towards Key West to get around a storm

the best way to tell if the post rocking is check out the pools because you see the waves swimming in the pools

they came up and took every chair and every everything and strapped them down and straps and ropes so I think they've taken this pretty seriously
