Cruise Top Ten

Well I know that I have been a bad blogger lately, I'm sorry. Things have been crazy on the home front, which shall be explained in subsequent posts.

Melanie requested a top ten and I thought that was a pretty good idea. So....

Analee's Cruise Top Ten

10. FREE STUFF! I don't know what it was about this boat, but stuff was free, everywhere free. And I really liked it. I kinds got obsessed with going and getting the free stuff.

9. The HAIRY MAN CONTEST. I have never laughed so hard in my life, than this hairy man contest. Too funny. But we all got sun burnt watching it. It was worth it.




8. The HAGGLING! This deserves it's own number because I was a great haggler!! And it made me happy. My best work was in Mexico and I got a red coral bracelet for a real good price. and The shopping! Well I just had a fun time picking out stuff. I liked seeing what kinda of different stuff I could find in different cultures. We shopped in every port and I got some good deals.

7. Animals! I got to see so many different animals in the ports. Which is good because I have a one track mind, "pets, pets pets pets". We saw two parrots, Pablo and Shaniqua, me and Jeni named them. And feral chickens just running around! And three iguanas. My most favorite was Frederico the wild lizard. Yes, I named the wild lizard.

6. The Food. I did enjoy going to dinner and ordering just anything and everything. It was also picture time for me and Jeni and we went nuts taking a million pictures. Also, the chocolate melting cake. Yum.

5. The Towel Creatures. Who doesn't love the little towel animals that appear on your bed every night. LOTS OF FUN!

4. The Shows. We did go to almost every show. My favorite was this fabulous juggler. He could do super human stuff on a moving vessel. Amazing.

3. The Motion of the Ocean. I LOVED the rocking of the boat, after being in port and then getting back out on the water I would always say "It is good to be moving again." I really liked being out on the open water. PS- the Gulf of Mexico is HUGE, if you didn't realize.

2. Snorkeling in Cozumel. After the not so great snorkel in Jamaica, Cozumel was gorgeous and I really got the hang of breathing through a tube. I saw so many fish and now all I want to do is snorkel.

1. Jeni! Spending time with Jeni was refreshing, fun and so hard to leave. I had forgotten how much I miss Jeni and how much fun we have together. The most fun thing was just being with her.
As you can see I had a really good time. It was really hard to leave and leave Jeni. It is always nice to come home, but I would jump at the chance for another week long cruise with Jeni.
