Back from crusin'


Yes, this time we really gone for a week. We went off cruisin' the islands with our daughter Amy , son-in-law Miguel, our grandkids, Miguel's mother, brother and his girlfriend. We sailed on Carnival out of San Juan - yay! no flying! - to St. Thomas, Barbados, St. Lucia, St, Kitts, and St. Maarten.

The ship doesn't sail from San Juan until 10:00 pm so there is a fair amount of hanging-around time once you board. First stop: FOOD! I mean, if there's nothing else to do on a cruise ship, you can always eat. This cruise we ate every dinner, including the first night, in the dining room.


 It didn't take the kids long to discover the pool, or in this case, the hot tub. They splashed around as the ship was preparing to leave.


The way things were arranged, Kennedy was staying with us in our stateroom. Originally both kids were going to stay with us to give the parental units a break. When Miguel's mother decided to join us, it worked out that Kai stayed with her. We were supposed to have Kennedy in bed but we all snuck out on deck for the "getting under way" party. Shhhh! Don't tell her mom.
