GLAD TO BE BACK!


We got back late Thursday afternoon from a fabulous week of cruising! We had a really good time with our wonderful friends. It was so nice to be waited on hand and foot! I mean they did everything for you from put your napkin in your lap at dinner to a turn down service at night. It was awesome! The weather was just perfect, except for a one or two days of clouds and cold, but hey it was February! The days they we were in port in Cozumel and Progresso were fabulous! The weather couldn't have been better. We enjoyed our time of relaxation and doing NOTHING!! So, now on to the part of the cruise that has made us decide that we are probably not "cruise people". First off going on a cruise in the winter months is probably not the best idea. With all the wind and everything it made the ship a bit rocky. There were a few nights on board that were a little questionable. I had brought some dramamine (?) which seemed to help a little. We never got entirely "seasick" but we could have done with out the swaying back and forth. I mean really, no one could walk a straight line on that ship. Everyone was all over the place. The second thing that really topped the cake for me as far as not cruising for awhile, was that there was a fire literally right above our room and we had to evacuate to our meeting place on the ship. Something you don't want to hear when you are out in the middle of the ocean is someone beating on your door at 2am saying evacuate, grab your life jackets. A lot of different emotions and thoughts run through you! Someone's luggage had caught on fire outside their room and no one knows exactly how is started. The fire was put out and everyone returned back to their rooms and we arrived back in Galvestion safe and sound. I have never been more excited to see land!! The best part about returning home was getting to hug Joshua! Oh man, did we miss him! He looked at us when we first got there, like I know who you are but where have you been the past 5 days!!! He quickly got over that and we had a great time getting to hug and squeeze him!! He would touch our faces all over, I guess he was making sure it was really us!!
