Celebrity Reflection Cruise Photos | Work Hard. Play Hard.

Work hard. Play hard. Nope it's not just a Lil' Wayne song. I think it's one of the smartest pieces of advice I've heard (especially for a rap song!). So many people get caught up in this... kind working, but also trying to relax mood. People that are checking their work email on their iphone during a meal at a restaurant. Calling clients when you have friends over. Always worrying about what they have to do tomorrow. And I'll admit, I'm probably just as guilty as anyone else. So I'm trying to live life on purpose. Yes work is super important and it's great to advance yourself, but its also important to take some time off, turn off the cell phone, shut down the computer, and just relax.

Cruise's are pretty special for me. Why? Because just two years ago I proposed to my beautiful wife on a cruise ship. I also love the fact that I can't get cell phone reception in the middle of the ocean, even if I tried. Talk about relaxing on purpose. After having a blast on the Carnival Fantasy we were looking forward to trying something new, and maybe something a little nicer out for our next cruise. So we chose to go with Celebrity. We heard really great things, and being the luxury version of the popular Royal Caribbean cruise line, we were super excited. We decided to do a 7-Day cruise on the brand new Celebrity Reflection ship as a way to get some final relaxation in before wedding season really kicks into high gear next month. And what an incredible time we had. The Reflection stopped in Peurto Rico, St. Maartin, and St. Kitts. Here's a few shots from our journey this past week:

Thanks again to all the awesomely talented and hardworking staff onboard the Celebrity Reflection for making our trip so incredible. Definitely looking forward to our next trip!

So I guess with the "play hard" out of the way it's time to "work hard" and trust me... I've got some absolutely killer stuff coming later this week. So excited!
