What’s In My Bag: Tropical Vacation

I love having something to look forward to. It motivates me and gives me something to plan for which, as a first born, gives me life. Recently it’s been about looking forward to completing home projects, renovations and the like. But this post is all about a vacation we’ve been looking forward to for almost a year.

We’re headed to…

Havana and the Bahamas!

Havana has been on our bucket list for a while and we’re beyond excited to finally be checking it off. This is crossing two key things off of my bucket list because this will also be my first cruise experience!

We would be excited for this trip regardless but this adventure is going to be that much better because we’re going with a few of our friends that we don’t get to see very often!

A couple of things that have been challenging about planning for this vacation: I have never done a cruise before so I’m somewhat guessing on what is best to pack. But even more than that: having this much time to plan has made shopping hard; mostly because shopping for a tropical getaway is fun! I. WANT. TO. BRING/BUY. EVERYTHING.

Unfortunately, as much as I want to bring it all, we know this isn’t reality. So I’ve narrowed the field {as much as possible anyway 😉 } and I’m sharing what I’m packing for our tropical escape… this adorable red dress included.

We start in Miami for a few days, board the boat, head to Havana and then on to the Bahamas before coming back to Miami. We are seriously looking forward to getting some Vitamin D!

I’ll be sharing what I can {wi-fi will be spotty at best} but would you have interest in a follow-up travel guide after our Havana/Bahamas cruise?! Let me know in the comment section below!
