Family Cruise

A round about way to get to our cruise ship, but I love riding trains. Baca lagi
  • Day 4: Costa Maya

    13 November 2019, Caribbean Sea ⋅ ⛅ 25 °C

    A full night's sleep is always a good thing.
    It looks like we ran through a storm last night.
    Stayed on board the boat. It looked like what you could walk to was a made for passengers mall.
    Went exploring on board with Jordan. Shops were all closed as we were docked.
    Took part in Escape Room with family and other passengers. We, not me, solved the game with 3 minutes to go.
    One of our waiters continues to work with Zak o.k. His Chinese.
    Went to the aqua show after dinner. A little weird but fun.
    Then we went to listen to Mo5aic, an acapella group, that were outstanding.

  • Day 5: Roatan

    14 November 2019, Honduras ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C

    Jordan, Zak and I toured the shops at the end of the gangway. About what I expected. The good news is we weren't hassled by any street vendors. If you wanted to go much beyond the shops you needed to get a taxi or go on a tour.
    Worked out again. This time it was just aerobic with 20 minutes on the treadmill and 20 minutes on the bike. My conditioning leaves a lot to be desired.
    On our way to Mexico.
    Attended a Thomas Kinkade / Disney unveiling. Interesting combination. Apparently Disney commissioned him to paint Disney related paintings in 2005.

  • Day 6: Cozumel

    15 November 2019, Mexico ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    There's a mess of other cruise ships on this island.
    Just a maze of a mall. Maybe it's a Mexico thing but I encountered the people at the doors to the shops encouraging you to come in and shop. These guys were more polite than on the West coast of Mexico.
    Saw Jordan, Lacee & Zak in line to go swimming with the dolphins.
    After nap and lunch I played gooney golf.

  • Day 7: On the way home

    16 November 2019, Amerika Syarikat ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C

    I'm ready to be home.
    Debbie is not feeling well. Her throat is pretty sore. We're hoping a Flat White will fix it.
    The Flat White & other medicine I found definitely perked her up.
    We had brunch with Jordan and seek and then waited for them at the end of the Abyss run.
    Most of the family got together to pick our family pictures. Pricey!
    Then off to watch Grease. While well done it was fairly raunchy.

  • Last night

    16 November 2019, North Atlantic Ocean ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C

    I'm a little excited as I am ready to be home. Still have a ways to go, but is the end of the second phase and the start of the third and final phase.
    I'm pretty much packed. We're leaving the boat at 7 tomorrow morning.
    Dinner was outstanding. I'm gonna miss that.

  • Back in the USA

    17 November 2019, Amerika Syarikat ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C

    Tired! I didn't sleep well. Anxious to get off the boat and get phase III started.
    It all went well and we got off the boat and into the rental car with a minimum of problems.
    Who made it so COLD!! This is Florida for crying out loud.
    We loaded up the Rav4 with 5 people and all their cruise luggage as well as train luggage. We drove to the Orlando airport with luggage everywhere including our maps. We dropped Jordan and Zak off and then headed off to Pensacola, aka Part 1 of phase III.

    Part 1 of phase III is complete. Yay!
    Loved the Dynamic Response cruise control in the Rav4.
    We're almost half way home. We did 500+ miles today. We only have 600 miles to go.
    Debbie feels like she is coming down with a cold. Bummer.
    Dinner at Cracker Barrel
    Next morning:
    What's up with the weather in Florida?! 35 degrees! XXXV stinkin' degrees! THIRTY FIVE! Did we travel through some sort of weather portal? Are we part of a Twilight Zone remake? Brrrr...
    Had a good visit with aunt Sharon and uncle George. Two of my favorite relatives that I rarely get to see. In fact, this is the first time I've spent this much time with uncle George one on one.
    Lunch with everyone at, where else, Cracker Barrel.

    Not too bad of a drive, just 5 1/2 hours. Left Pensacola about 2pm and arrived at 7:30pm.
    Dinner at Cracker Barrel. Probably the last time for awhile.
    Next Day and LAST DAY:
    Plan on getting out of here at 9am. Debbie sounds like she is still sick.Baca lagi

  • Back to where we began

    19 November 2019, Amerika Syarikat ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

    Back to where the train trip began and where we left our car. It was still there. Yay!
    Earlene is not doing well. Called her other daughter, the nurse, and she believes one of her medications is the issue.
    The trip to Longview took 5 1/2 hours.
    We had to drive a ways through Monroe, Louisiana, to find a Starbucks. It is a pretty town.
    Now off to return the rental car at Tyler airport.
