Summary
We went on our first cruise for our honeymoon.  We live in South Carolina and decided we would drive to Fort Lauderdale, get married, drive to Miami, and take a cruise to the Bahamas and Key West.  The trip was an overall success, but we certainly came home with stories…

This work is designed to prepare first-time cruisers for the maximum fun and enjoyment of any cruise, but especially for a Royal Caribbean Bahamas cruise aboard the Sovereign of the Seas.  If you have such a trip planned, the information and suggestions herein will prove invaluable.  I will do my best to convey the information we would have liked to have had before leaving for Miami.
