Our Cruise


We had a fabulous time on our cruise and with the exception of Tropical Storm Olga the weather was beautiful. We had to divert to San Juan on Tuesday instead of going to St Thomas because of the storm. Then,since I was not feeling good from the day before, I didn't feel like going into town. We have been on many cruises and this is the first one on which I was seasick. The seas were very rough for two days. After that though, it was all good.

We played bingo, which I love, at least once a day. Sometimes twice and one day, three times! Rick is so tolerant of my whims. He really is incredible. He sat right there beside me every single game. We scheduled our sun time and our nap time around bingo time. Its crazy, I know. I'm a bit quirky sometimes. I was getting a little discouraged there after losing every game but finally on the last day, I was able to call BINGO!! So then....it was all worth it.

We ate way too much, as we always do. I had chocolate every single day. They had this chocolate melting cake that was by far the best thing I have ever put in my mouth and we scheduled our dinners in the dining room around when they were having that on the menu. Yum. LOL.

We met some very interesting people from all over the world. Australia, Canada, Germany, New York, Charleston, several from Florida and even some from Tennessee. Very cool.


I'm sad that our vacation is over. We had such a good time. On our drive home, it rained almost the entire way and it just kept getting colder. That has been the hardest part. Today was sunny at least so the cold isn't so hard to take. I think the only way I will make it through the dreary days of winter is to just begin planning our next adventure! Hmmmmm....where should we go next?
