Cruise'n

So I'm way behind but I finally have some of the pictures loaded from our cruise so it's picture time! We went on a 3 day out of San Diego and were supposed to go to Ensenada but with the swine flu scare ended up going to Catalina Island instead but it was still way fun. We went with my parents, my oldest sister Shelley and her husband Nathan, my youngest sister Joanna and her husband Jared and some friends from our ward Brig and Ali Hall, we had quite the group!




If any of you have been on a cruise before you know the main attraction is the food it is fabulous and more then plentiful but as much as the rest of us ate Brig put us all to shame! I think he had enough for 3 people at each meal and that doesn't include the 24 hour buffets and ice cream! He definitely got his moneys worth and probably for the rest of us too!




We drove over Thursday April 30th and left port that evening and that night they had a comedian come in for the entertainment. Then Friday May 1st we spent in Catalina where we walked around the shops and Brig, Ali & my Dad went on a glass bottom boat tour while the rest of us went snorkeling in the 60 degree water, thank goodness for wetsuits! It was cool because there were so many fish all around not to mention the other sea creatures our guide pulled up for us to see. That night they had a hypnotist for the entertainment. Saturday May 2nd we spent at sea and actually went to Ensenada but just sat our in the water for a couple hours to comply with their charter so we could see it but just not touch. It also got quite foggy most of the day so we hung out and played card games and mini golf in the 50 mph wind. That night we decided not to go to the show and went out to hang in the hot tub instead since the whole outer deck was empty for once it was fun! Then Sunday morning we were back in San Diego and got off the boat and headed home. Over all we had a wonderful time and wish all of you could have come too...next time right!
