Cruise!

Well I'm back from my cruise with Staci and my parents. We had a great time, even if the weather did not cooperate. We were able to stop in Cozumel and ride a scooter around the island, allowing us to visit desolate beaches, margarita stands without any electricity, and a hidden tequila factory for some creamy tequila! (That should be good for winter-time hot cocoa or something).

We also visited Jamaica and hiked Dunn River Falls! That was pretty awesome, and had a great time doing it.

As for our time on the boat, we ate a TON, enjoying it immensely. I probably had sushi about 4 times, which was pretty good. As a family we collected 4 different ships on a stick, from 4 trivia contests (note we were 4 for 4, we thought about taking our previous trophies to our next trivia events, but didn't feel like scaring the competition that much). After that we decided that 4 was enough since we couldn't lose and felt bad for everyone else that was stick-less.




The water was pretty choppy, and the wind was crazy. The sun that we actually received was only shone upon us on Friday afternoon, and we soaked it up like crazy while we could.

It's sad to be back, but we can look forward to having plenty of fun vacations in the future! :). Come by and we can show you our souvenir cup collection sometime....

The ship on a stick is the trophy Staci's holding in the pic :). It's the name they give it while you're on the cruise.
