Cruisin'

We got back from our 7 day Mexican Riviera cruise this week. It was actually a 10 day vacation though because we drove and stopped in Vegas both ways. We went with Darrin's two brothers and their wives making a total of 6 in our traveling party. Can I just say we had SO SO SO SO SO much fun and it's really not as fun getting back to real life?

The down side of the cruise is that I got real sea sick! Sheesh that boat was a rockin'! But the upside was everything else: The sun, the ports (Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan, and Puerto Vallarta), THE FOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!, the entertainment, the company we were with, did I already say the food? I want to say it again: The FOOD!!!

If you haven't been on a cruise, you should go on one! For what you get, they're really inexpensive! Wait, let me rephrase that: they're really inexpensive UNLESS you drink and/or gamble. And we don't do either of those so it was SUPER worth the money! We paid $791 for BOTH OF US for our 7 day cruise + gratuities.

Our Royal Carribean cruise ship, the Mariner of the Seas, had an ice rink onboard, a rock climbing wall, roller blading rink, mini golf coarse, pools, hot tubs, fitness center, and the list goes on!

In the ports we went snorkeling (amazing!!!), Kiaking, Boogie Boarding, saw a sea turtle in the wild, lots of sea lions, and tons of pelicans. Needless to say we had a BLAST!

Here are A LOT of pics:
