Let’s start off with some information about Australia’s history first. The typical Aussies that most people think about when they think about Australia weren’t the first people in this land. As early as 65,000 years ago, there were human inhabitants on the land that is today called Australia. These people are the indigenous Aboriginal Australians. When the British arrived, they colonized the land much as they did from the Native Americans in what is now the United States. Similar to what happened to the Native Americans, disease wiped out a large percentage of the Aboriginal population.

Rio de Janeiro is a very dangerous city. We were told by multiple people to be very careful. You should never walk around with your cell phone out because someone could run up to you, grab it, and run off. You should have a lock on your purse or a clip to prevent it from being unzipped. You shouldn't walk around at night. Etc.
Horrendous has to be the only word for this tour. I have seen reviews of other tour companies that might not be as terrible, but this review is specifically for the official tour company of Cartagena. DO NOT GO WITH THEM!
Utila is an island off the coast of Honduras that a lot of tourists visit to learn to scuba dive. The other popular island in the same area is Roatán. We went to Utila to get our advanced scuba certifications because it was cheaper than what we found in Roatán. That being said, I heard from people while we were in Utila that Roatán has better snorkling / scuba diving because there are more fish and a more colorful reef.
Colin and I had SO MUCH fun on our marriage celebration cruise with 52 of our friends and family members!! Ok, let me back up... I didn't want to do a wedding. I haven't wanted to do a wedding in years because I think it's a waste of money, but also, I'd be the worst bridezilla EVERRRR. Seriously, I am so OCD that nothing could have gone perfectly enough for me (self-reflection - oh heyyyy). Colin decided that he was on board, so instead, we did a 3 night cruise (Royal Caribbean) to the Bahamas (Nassau & CocoCay) out of the port (Cape Canaveral, FL) near my hometown (Cocoa, FL).
Maine was my favorite spot so far! The weather was gorgeous (it was the first good weather they've had this year, so we got super lucky!), and the people were lovely.
