I'm ready to leave dreary Florida behind (it's been raining here for weeks!) for a little SUNSHINE
... the Carnival Sunshine that is!!
Tonight, my family is flying to Barcelona to board the newly refurbished ship (formerly Carnival Destiny) for a 9-day Mediterranean cruise with stops in Marseille (we're spending the day in Aix-en-Provence), Livorno (Pisa), Rome, Naples, Messina (Taormina), Dubrovnik and Venice.
This is our first trip to Europe as a family and I couldn't be more excited!! I hope you'll follow along on twitter at hashtag #CCLSunshine -- I will be posting updates and photos from each of the ports.
Check out some of my previous posts to get acquainted with the Carnival Sunshine:

It seemed almost funny to see the word dreary and florida in the same sentence. I always think of Florida as sun shiney. I bet you are going to have some amazing adventures. Happy sailing!

We did a Transatlantic cruise a number of years ago that sailed from Florida to Barcelona stopping in some Mediterranean ports. We loved it. I'm sure you are all going to have a fantastic time!

How exciting, we are also heading out on a cruise (not so long or far away) and I'm hoping since we are simply going south that the dreary weather does not follow.
