YouTube Video Description

Hello Everyone! It's vacation time again! This time we're flying to Fort Lauderdale, Florida for a cruise aboard Celebrity Reflection. Join us as we go through the planning that we did for this cruise and discuss what we will be doing in our Ports of Key West and Coco Cay. #cruise #cruiseship #celebritycruises #celebrityreflection #universalorlando #cruisevacation #cococay #keywest Since this is our first Celebrity Cruise we talk about why we booked this cruise, the ship, and what drink packages we decided to buy. We also discuss what we are doing in Fort Lauderdale before the cruise and how we are turning our 4-night cruise into a full vacation with a trip to Orlando on the Brightline Train after the cruise. We love to cruise and planning these cruise vacations can be frustrating and difficult. We hope with our planning videos that we can answer some questions that you may have regarding your cruise or your vacation in general. When planning this trip and sharing the planning for this trip we wanted to show how you can turn a 4-night cruise into a full vacation by involving the new Florida High-Speed Rain system. There is so many things to do in Orlando and we shouldn't be afraid to book a shorter cruise as you can usually put together some other things to do to make it a memorable and worthwhile trip. We will have a ton more videos to post during and after this trip so please be on the look out! Please let us know if you have any questions! This cruise is with Celebrity Cruise. https://www.celebritycruises.com We booked the cruise on Cruise.com We booked the AC Hotel in Fort Lauderdale on the Marriott Bonvoy App https://www.Marriott.com We booked our trip to Universal Orlando on the Universal Orlando Resort Website https://www.universalorlando.com We booked the brightline train tickets on the Brightline website. https://www.gobrightline.com
