Shipboard Update: Monday

..............MONDAY (Sunday is Below)................

We got our wake-up call this AM at 7:00, so I popped out of bead and jumped in the shower. I was not about to be the person who made us all late for our exciting trip to Ocho Rios, Jamaica! One I dried off and found some clothes (they're all over the place) we hear the following announcement over the loud speaker (you have to eread it with an Engligh accent, "Ladies and Gentlemen. It with great regret..." Yep, didn't hear too much after that, other that Chip cursing like a sailor. Due to 30 knot winds and a small port, the Captain decided that it wasn't safe to stop.

YES, WE SKIPPED A WHOLE FREAKING COUNTRY. It was at this stop that we were going to do the canopy-zip-line-thingy in the jungle. The only thing that Chip really wanted to do. We're not sure if this means that we'll just float at sea for an extra day, or if we'll stay in another port longer. With our luck, I'd bet on staying at sea, because that will just suck.

After we collected ourselves, Chip, Matt & Kim wne to the gym. I had the pleasure of waiting on a long-ass line to reschedule our stop in Mexico. You see. Kim, David and Matt will ne touring the Mayan ruins... and Chip and I will make up Mabel's Dolphin sightseeing, since she'll miss it today.

Fun, fun, fun.

I'm off to find a Bloody Mary... or 12. Please, keep thinking good thoughts for us. There's a 100% chance that we will never, ever, ever cruise again, and I want to make the best of it.

Miss you all. ~ C

........................SUNDAY UPDATE........................

I typed up a big entry last night on Matt's Mac, and now I have no way to add it via the Internet Cafe. URGH! I had such big blogging plans, and now it will all have to wait until I return. I am taking some good pics though. You'll need to be patient.

Yesterday was a bomb, with the exception of a wine tasing class that I attended with Kim. THAT was a BALL! We are still eating at the same buffet, despite the fact that there are MANY restaurants on board. This us partially due to the fact that the ship is so big we can't find anything.

We did have our first formal dinner, and that was awesome. Our waiter was amazing and didn't mind a bit that Aunt Mabel fell asleep at the table after pooping a Dramamine. She's felt sick each day. Everyone was on their best behavior, with the exception of one person, who shall remain nameless, as I feel he may have hit his head and completely forgotten how to act. And it's not Chip, Matt or David.
