YAY!!!!
Last year was my very first cruise (to Cozumel, Mexico) and I dreaded it. A cruise seemed so horrible to me--what do you do all day? I love to drink, but I don't get wasted (affects my vertigo); I don't enjoy shopping (the many little gift shops, etc. on the boat); I cannot bring myself to gamble any more than $2; public pools/hottubs do not interest me at all; muscial numbers (the shows!) are usually terrible; etc. etc. And retrospectively I couldn't tell you what I did all day (aside from grossing my sister out and reading) but I had tons of fun--plus, THE FOOD!!
Oh-my-god. My foodie-ness has not fully been conveyed. I. LOVE. LOVE. FOOD. There is nothing I will not try, and I appreciate all types. Last year I had escargot and Baked Alaska for the first time. The Baked Alaska I wasn't so impressed by, it didn't live up to my expectations. However the escargot was DELICIOUS! The closest description I can come up with for escargot is that it is some bizarre cross between mushrooms and calamari.
Also last year I was able to go scuba diving in the 2nd largest great reef in the world--which was BEYOND AMAZING.
We've got a show to go to tonight, packing tomorrow, and we leave on Sunday morning.
YAY!! Oh, Boy!!! and all sorts of other exciting words.
