Mexican Cruise

I have been such a snob lately. I have had so many fun trips planned right in a row. I don't know why they all fell into place within a months span, but it's been very fun!! This vacation was DREAMY...I surprised Matt with a planned cruise for his birthday. We've been looking forward to it for months and finally got to go this past week. I want to remember it in detail, so I'm going to go through it day by day. Sorry, might be boring for you. We took TONS of pictures too, so beware.

DAY 1

We went straight to the buffet and the pool

DAY 2

Ensenda, Mexico. It was a little disappointing. I'd heard it was gross, but it was even worse then I expected. There was nothing to do or see. We walked around this fish market, which was interesting, and then ordered virgin margaritas and guacamole. It was delicious. It was formal night that night. It was fun to dress up and get fancy.

DAY 3

For our first day at sea, we explored the ship a lot. We played miniature golf and swam. We also went and saw a fun show of an impressionist.

DAY 4

The best day!!! We went to Cabo San Lucas and swam with dolphins. I was having stomach pains because I was nervous the dolphins would eat me, but once we got in the water with them and I calmed down we LOVED it. Cabo was really nice. It was quite pretty and had some fun shopping.

DAY 5


We didn't have much to do for our second day at sea. It was a bit windy and cold so we couldn't lay out (bummer). We played pool, and went and saw the helicopter pad. This was our table for dinner. Some crazy people, but a fun group to eat with every night.

DAY 6
We were so sad it was over. But we got a little treat at the airport. While going through security, Matt spotted Mitt Romney. We were very excited and rushed through as fast as we could. After stalking him for a while, Matt decided to go ask him for a picture. He was kind of nice, but you could tell he did not want attention. This is the picture that resulted. I of course was way too chicken to go with Matt to talk to him, so he had to try to capture the moment by stretching his arm out to get the picture. Not a great one, but at least we got Mitt's face. It was a very exciting way to end the trip.

We had so much fun this week!! It was so delightful to be away together and relax.
