National Lampoon's Cruise Vacation

Okay, by now most of you have heard the news that Carrie and I got last Friday (1/29). Well that was just the beginning of a long weekend. Backup one week, our plans were to go to B'ham and get good news from the doctor on Friday and then leave for a cruise to Jamaica on Saturday. On the Tuesday before the doctor's appointment, we got word that something was wrong with our cruise ship and that it would not be able to make to Jamaica and back in 5 days. So they decided to move the cruise to Cozumel and Costa Maya Mexico. Now fast forward to Friday afternoon after the doctors appointment. We were planning on driving to Nashville and fly out with Carrie's parents on Saturday morning to Miami. Problem was that Nashville got hit with a very nasty ice storm Friday night we drove into. We slid off the road at one point due to the ice and spent 20 minutes getting the car out of the ditch. So if that wasn't enough Southwest started cancelling flights Friday night. At 9pm Friday night we decided to drive to Miami to catch this boat. The latest time we could check in to get on the cruise was 2:30pm on Saturday. We arrived at the cruise terminal at 2:15pm. So after a Friday to forget and a 16hr drive we made it on the boat and were able to spend a week in 80+ degree temps and catch some sun. As Jeff Foxworthy says, "You can't make this stuff up."
