It just seems like the other day that Chuck and I piled in Ethelyn and Craig's souped up van and headed for California. It was before all of this December snow. Laron & Linda and Lee & Klea met us at the Los Angeles Pier and we all boarded the Norwegian Star for a week of relaxation and friendly activities.
When Chuck decided to ran off the ship and all the way through immigration and the parking lot to get his book out of the van I watched out the ship window thinking that I might have a stateroom to myself. He's a fast runner and they let him back onto the ship just before the horn blew and the generators turned the engines to set sail.
The weather was so good for November. As soon as we neared the Mexican border the sunshine was typical tropical and we drank in the warmth. The stongest liquid drink we had was delicious mexican Diet Pepsi.
We spent in port days sight seeing, shopping, walking, riding the tour trolley & taxis. The boys took a tour into the jungle and tried the zip lines. Laron & Linda sneaked away to Lover's Beach.
We spent at sea days sitting on deck, reading, playing cards, watching the dolphins jump, people watching, movies, bingo and trying another eatery every other hour or so.
In the evenings we had dinner together then went to the ship's entertainment shows.
After a week of play we had to clear our rooms and get off the ship so that a new list of passengers could get on. Hope the new folks had as much fun in the cabin as we did!
Another cruise is in the planning .
