Navigating Fun, Hurricanes, and Hollywood Beach

 

This adventure began aboard the Carnival Sunrise, where Cameron and I joined Kathleen and Brett for a 5-night cruise through the Eastern Caribbean. The vibe was upbeat, the ocean views were stunning, and the laughs flowed as easily as the tropical drinks. But little did we know, this trip would have an unexpected stormy twist.

As we cruised back toward Miami, we found ourselves following a hurricane. While the experience on the ship was still enjoyable, the chaos of the storm led to the cancellation of our next planned adventure: a cruise on the Margaritaville ship. With no cruise to board, we improvised and embraced a new plan—Hollywood Beach.

Kathleen, unfortunately feeling under the weather (we suspect COVID may have been the culprit), opted to rest at the hotel. Meanwhile, Brett, Cameron, and I set out to explore the iconic Broadwalk. The salty breeze, live music, and colorful charm of the area quickly turned our change of plans into an unexpected highlight.

We found ourselves swaying to an outdoor concert at Margaritaville, letting the tunes and beach vibes carry us into the evening. A few too many drinks? Perhaps. But as the laughter bubbled over, we knew this impromptu detour was exactly what we needed.

Life may throw hurricanes your way, but with a little flexibility—and a lot of fun—you can turn any twist into a treasured memory.
