Cruise Part Two!

I love blogging..it's so much fun.. :)

What else can I say about my cruise. I am blogging this so that I can share with my fellow readers and so that I can have a keepsake memory of my adventure!

Did I tell you that my sister and I were the life of the ship? Everywhere we went the staff would call to us " Hey, sisters".. it was wonderful!
There was one singer, Brian Scott, who we would follow around to hear him sing. He had a great voice. Below is a photo of him that I took of him in his off time. The shorts crack me up! He later came down and sunbathed with us and was telling us about his show that night in the casino. I said, "yea I know, we have a show tonight at 8:00 too".... LOL we were stars, we had people wanting us to sing Karaoke again--LOL


Later on in the week, Ginkers and I were still following Calvyn around and we ended up taking a class in folding towels.. Trust me when I say I could never do that again. Kudos to those who can, they are wonderful in the room, but I have zero talent for it!


If someone were to ask me what my favorite thing on the cruise was I would say:" Being able to be 34 years old and have good clean fun meeting new people, dancing until 2 am and of course seeing the beach!" What a magical time in my life. Here are a few more photos of my trip!

What can I say about my trip other than I had such a wonderful time! At first my mom and I took a train ride into Chicago to meet up with my sister and from there we had a sleeper car to New Orleans. We had a blast on the train and met new people.
Once we got into New Orleans we dressed up for a night out on Bourbon Street. In retrospect I really did not enjoy Bourbon Street, there were a lot of people there-mainly because of the Saints game that coming weekend-and the atmosphere was beyond the “party” life. There were young ladies dressed up in night gear and wanting men to come and see them, I felt sorry for the girls and their circumstances in life that led them to do what they were doing. We did stop by a Jazz night club and the music was wonderful and then off to a piano bar and then back to our room to get a good night’s sleep for our cruise.
Our First day----------AMAZING! I feel in love with the adventure and realized I am more adventurist than what I thought. The food was fantastic and I did not have to worry about gluten type foods because all the food was fresh and accommodating to my needs.
Tomi------Tomi was our breakfast waiter and each time he would see us he remembered our names and would call us, “My love and my lady”. I loved being spoken to like that!


Calvyn---Words can’t describe how much I love Calvyn. He was the “Fun ship” man and held a lot of the activities. He is truly the funniest person I have ever met-besides me of course (Ha ha). Below is a photo of me and Calvyn. My sister and I made T-shirts that said.. " Calvyn's Groupies" and we hung out with him and got to him some more-he made this very memorable for me!




For me, I have never seen the ocean or any major bodies of water except the Mermac River-LOL so I was amazed how the beauty of Cozumel Mexico. I loved swimming in the salty water and the waves were huge I wish I could have swam in it longer, but I enjoyed every minute I was on the beach. I came back with a super nice tan! Jealousy was evident by all my peers-ha ha



Well for now I must go, I will do another post to tell you about my trip! :)

To be continued............
