Since returning from our cruise, it has been so busy. The restaurants have been booked every night and it seems that all of a sudden no one can function without our direction. Little Caroline D has been sick with a terrible cold and had us all afraid. (She is completely better now.) I think another cruise will soon be on my horizon.

We arrive back in Florida tomorrow morning. This has been one of the best cruises we have ever taken. I am not sure if it was the ship, the staff, the islands or our new friends. I just want to stay on board for another week or so. I always dread the end of the cruise, but never like this. It is amazing how people can touch your life and make such a difference. I must remember to get Ann’s contact information tomorrow morning during breakfast. She is someone I want to stay in touch with.

This cruise is just what the doctor ordered! The Caribbean is beautiful and the weather is perfect! The ship is smaller than most of the ones we have been on before, but I think I actually prefer this. It’s so much more personable and the staff is all so kind and helpful! We have met a lovely couple on their first cruise to celebrate their retirement. They are officially hooked on cruising! Ann and I are off to get a massage and Bob and John are off to do some driving.

Our weekend on the boat turned into our own mini-cruise. We just returned today! We leave tomorrow on our cruise and I have so much work to do today. Busy, busy, busy!
