Vacation time is ovah.

Hola everyone! *waves*

   I'm officially back from our cruise and now we're setteling in to get back to work. Vacation time is officially over for us. =( So sad. I wish we could have stayed on the boat forever. It feels weird being at home after 7 days at sea. Not being able to go out and do all of the fun activities / having things planned out or being able to eat whatever, whenever and it not cost you anything. =/ I think that last bit was the worst part of coming home besides the actual drive home. *ugh* Having to cook again.

 So anyways: I'll go ahead and give a quick recap and add some pictures.  This is going to be a long one.

Day one: Embarkation day. Sail away, sea day and was just able to roam around the ship. Went to the welcome aboard show. Gambled a few bucks in the casino.

 It's never a good thing when you see this man on your ship.


Day two : Sea Day. Slept in. Roamed around the ship. Went to the shows, gambled, ate a lot, danced. Swam. Walked around the ship. Played and just had a grand ol' time.

 This game was called key master. It kept having crowds of people trying to win this ridiculous game. Hilarious to watch people freaking out and playing. The guys to the left dropped at least 50.00 playing and then the other guy dropped about 20.00 both walked away empty handed.

Day three: We were in Roatan. Which was a dock port.  We went Ziplining at the Mayan Adventure Zipline. It was awesome. Went shopping, went on a tour of the island and then came back to the ship. Gorgeous (but hot) day, then more shows, eating , dancing etc.

Day four:  This is a tender port so we had to ride a boat to shore from the cruise ship. We visited the Mayan ruins of Altun Ha (sp) in Belize City, Belize. It was awesome. We then took a tour around Belize City and surrounding areas by van. From there we ate at a local Belizian restaurant (which was delicious). It looked like a little hole in the wall but was so good. We shopped for a little while and then we went back on the ship.  Again tons more stuffing of faces, booty shaking, and hot tub useage.

Day five: We were in Costa Maya and were docked a their port. This was the day I had access to the internet and posted some pictures from Costa Maya, Mexico. It was an amazing little slice of paradise.

Day six: Cozumel, Mexico. Meh. We didn't do much except walk around the port area and shops. Mr. C bought me a beautiful Tanzanite and diamond ring from a diamond store there for my birthday. Other than that we walked around then walked back to the ship. Of course continuing our nightly traditions of over eating, gambling, dancing, "game shows", comedy and hot tub usage.

Day seven: Last sea day and my birthday. It was a bitter sweet night because it was my birthday and the last night on the boat. We ate in the MDR (Main dining room), then went to the show. From there we went to see Second city and their adult comedy show. After that was the epic game show called "The quest" in which we got robbed! We were the winners but "whatevs" and then some more dancing after that.

It was a fun cruise. Sad to see it over and really glad the parents didn't kill each other. Ok, I kid, I didn't think they would kill each other but I expected some rude behavior. For the most part, after some hiccups and some attitude corrections *(ahem)* they decided to play nice. There weren't any further issues after the first half of the cruise.





Sorry if these pictures are all jacked up and weird sized and out of order. Mobile iPhone app and computer won't sync and it's being a pain in my ass. :/
