Since right now we all can't cruise and this one cruise is the only trip I missed doing a trip report for I decided to make one now this is from 2016.

Julia- You all should know me from my other trip reports. I celebrate my 28th birthday on the Disney Magic this trip. At this time I didn't know I had Lupus(though I had all the signs)
Larry(Dad)- He is the one I travel with since mom doesn't like traveling or cruises.
We left from Miami on NCL, Went to Disney World after and Left from Port Canaveral on the Magic.

I most likely won't remember times as much, but you'll get ideas.

March 4th, 2016- Flying to Miami

I woke up excited from my trip today. Ate breakfast and got ready for the day. Finished some last minute things up. Text my personal trainer Beau(he left in May 2016, so not the same trainer from later trip reports). Dad and I said bye to mom and headed to Newark Airport. We parked and took the bus to the terminal, checked in and checked our bags in and then head to security. We got some lunch since with was around noon. I got this.




After eating we headed to the gate.



The flight was uneventful.



We landed in Miami and got a shuttle to the hotel. We stayed at the Intercontinental in Miami. We checked in and then headed to the room.















We headed out to get dinner.




We ate at Bubba Gump










After dinner we headed to CVS and then headed back to the hotel.






Ate a snack I picked up and relaxed before falling asleep.
