Sun & Fun in Miami






Derek and I had fun at the ACRO meeting in Miami. The meeting was only fair, but the beach and 85 degree weather was great. We had a great view of the bay from our room at Bayside. Watching all the cruise ship go in and out made you want to catch one.

South beach was fun. We saw Enrique Iglasias practicing for the Today show on the beach. Then walked down the street and had dinner.

It was a fun trip, but lots of flying. I'll put on a few pictures of Derek and I.

A Few More Pictures






I just wanted to add a couple of more pictures of the beach and ship.
We missed all of you on the cruise, so next year lets plan on all together. Maybe for my retirement party.

Criusin' and Relaxin' in the Sun






We had a great time on the Carribean Princess. It is a sister to the Grand Princess, a huge ship. It had 3150 passengers. We had three sea days and stops in St. Martin, St. Thomas and Princess Cays on the island of Eluthrea.

It was fun to get away and be warm. Our favorite part was the spa. We went into the steam rooms and warm tables everyday and had massages one day. They did a facial as part of the massage special. I thought that was kind of goofy. I like the hot stone massage best.

The food was good, we ate plenty of it, but we did walk over a mile every day on deck. The Princess ships have a huge movie screen on deck showing movies day and night, that was fun. I won trivea three times. Basically we just had a relaxing time. In St. Thomas we went to Megan's bay, which is beautiful and had a relaxing day on the private island.

We had so much fun we put a deposit down on another cruise. The next cruise will make us elite princess members. Maybe the next cruise will be the mediterranean.

Now we are back to the cold and snow. It snowed yesterday again and more in store for tonight. So much for global warming this year.
