So to kick this thing off I guess you folks will want to know a little about us. Amber and I (Ron) are in our mid-twenties. I’m an engineer by day and a amateur smart ass by night. She is a dental assistant by day and a self-proclaimed dog mother just about any time of the day. On average we take about 4 cruises a year, mainly because my company has a pretty ridiculous PTO policy that requires I burn A LOT of time. Now that the introductions are out of the way let’s to the thing everyone cares about. Our recent trip to Havana, Cuba on Majesty of the Seas. Before we left I searched the internet high and low for information regarding the cruise and what Cuba is like. I wasn’t able to find very much, so my goal is to provide a lot of information for people planning to visit this very interesting country.

Day 1: Departing Indianapolis

On Thursday we planned to leave to start the trek down to Tampa to meet up with Majesty. Initially, we planned on flying, but due to my car being involved in an accident the insurance company gave us a week of a loaner car. Considering we both love road trips we nixed the flight ideas and decided to drive. We managed to leave Indy earlier then we initially thought, so I moved our hotel reservation from Nashville to just outside of Atlanta for the evening. We arrived at the hotel around 11:30 pm, and were put through the ringer on getting a room. I won’t go into details, because well this is about cruising, not my thoughts on if we did or didn’t get a room. (If you’re interested in this experience see my TripAdvisor). Read more
