Spring Vacation Days 7 and 8

-


Thursday we docked in Grand Cayman. I think this was my favorite stop. Very friendly people, great shopping, just an all around fun island. We had a great time checking out the shops and walking around town.


Friday was our last port of call, Cozumel, Mexico. Several of us signed up for a dolphin swim excursion and that for me was one of the highlights of the trip. Our group worked with a female dolphin name Olympia. I got lucky and got two kisses. (Apparently the photographer did not get a good shot on round one). Despite the obvious sale tactics - each group of participants is accompanied by a photographer and videographer - we all had a great time.

Hi Rubye Jean - Thank you. We also got a handshake (actually a fin shake) and a ride - the dolphin flipped onto her back and we got to hold on to the fins while she pulled us along.

I think the big fish is smiling too Chewy. She knows I will buy the picture which in turn will buy her more little fish to snack on.

Now Boarding Rows 1 Through 10. Is There Room For Your Carry On?

Here's an interesting texting typo I created last week: And if airline seats get any smaller, I can see this being an actual problem. Can you imagine? I'm sorry ma'am, but there is no way both of you can seat in one seat. You will have to purchase an additional ticket for "her". What would happen then? Would she want the window or middle seat? That's assuming she would even want to sit next to me. I mean, we are together 24/7 so she may want a little alone time, out in the open air, where she is free of any restraint. And what if she is chatty, flapping her lips the whole time? I'm not a big talker when I travel, preferring instead to bury my head in a magazine so I can take my mind off the flight and enjoy my Ativan. I imagine the conversation going as such: She:  I hate that bike seat at spin class. You have no idea what it's like. Me:  Spin class is only 50 minutes. You can handle it. I bought you padded shorts. Those weren't

Things For Which To Be Thankful

My two nieces have had some health issues lately. First E was admitted to the hospital with severe abdominal pain. She ended up with a five day stay. Then my other niece S spent twelve hours in the ER due to a pain in her side (no, it wasn't me). Not feeling up to par can really bring you down. So I am sending them both some well wishes here today and hopefully convincing them that there are worse things in life. There is 80's hair: Oh, and a couple of more things to add to the list: red shag carpet and wrist corsages. Rock me like a hurricane girls, but you sure are pretty in pink (and black). Hey - didn't you have a cat that got lost at one point. I think I see it. ADDENDUM - THOSE PICTURES ARE NOT OF ME. SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION. TO BE FAIR, I HAVE POSTED MY 80'S PIC BELOW:
