There's laundry all over the place, I can't find my glasses (they're in my carry-on somewhere) and I'm tired as all hell......
I must be home from my lovely holiday!
Hey, anyone know how long it will take for me to get my "land-legs"? I totally still feel like everything's moving-it's weirding me out........
Bermuda was gorgeous-everyone was so nice, and the weather was perfect. The ship was HUGE-I think around 3,100 passengers-but it never really felt crowded at all. The only thing, in my opinion, that sorta sucked was the fact that we had an inside stateroom. Because there was no window, I had no concept of time, even though I had brought a travel clock. I need the sunlight-it was way too disconcerting not to know whether it was day or night.
I went snorkeling for the first time and it was pretty cool. We actually had two trips booked, one a kayak and snorkel trip, and the other was just snorkeling. I loved the fact that I got to kayak, but I freaked out and couldn't snorkel, so the next day G literally held my hand and we went off. The living coral was cool, but scared the hell out of me-I kept thinking that it was going to capture me (silly, yes, I know) and drag me to the bottom. The tour guide threw a bit of bait into the water, so we got to see all kinds of cool fish roaming around. Then we had some rum swizzles (yummy) and admired the blue water.......I'll try to post some pics that I took, if I can figure out how to do it.
All in all, it was a great week-had LOTS of sex, relaxed by the pool, and ate my face off. The only sad part was when, I finally had mobile service on the island, I spoke to my mom and she told me that my great-aunt (my grandmother's sister) had passed away on Tuesday. She had been diagnosed with cancer about two months or so ago, and it was so bad that the docs gave her only six months, recommended a morphine drip and for her to go home. The funeral was this morning, which sucked because I didn't get to go, but I'll have to send a card. It's sad, not only because she had to die in pain, but because she was the last of my grandmother's siblings left. We just celebrated her 80th birthday last year, so at least she was able to lead fo full life, unlike my grandmother, who died when she was only 61 (of ovarian cancer). We were supposed to go out this summer to visit her, kind of like a goodbye, but it all happened too fast. At least she isn't in pain anymore......
That's all for now. I've had lots brewing in my brain this last week that I'll write about later.
