Well, we did it. We actually went on a cruise. It was great too! Neither of us got sea sick. Which is probably the best part of all. We had an ocean view room. It took me three shots to get a seagull in the picture. I think it looks pretty cool.
We had a lot of fun. It was nice to be away from the boys for a little bit and have time just for the two of us. I tell ya, we needed it! We went mini golfing on the boat, ate delicious food, saw a hypnotist, a comedian, and a show. It was great! They let you eat food all day and all night. And the only food you have to pay for separately is the sushi. Good thing I was going near that stuff!
When we got to Ensenada, James and I took the taste of Mexico tour. We got a tour around the town with them telling us how terrible the Americans are, and they are so great. Or at least, that's how it seemed. Then we went to a restaurant where they taught us how to make our own 3 course meal. It was really good too. Then we walked around town for an hour or so. That's when our money decided to fly right out of our pockets! Crazy how that happens.
In our room every day on the boat, we got a new towel animal. They were so cute! The only think I didn't like was how they would take away the old one to give us a new one. I wanted to have a whole jungle. Oh well, we did get picture with every one of them. They were so cute! Here's the elephant.
And here's the monkey. It was hanging around all day! Do you like James' monkey face. Yes, he's the one in the blue shirt. Then they gave us one that we didn't know what is was, so we just called it the baby. It was really cute too.
Now that we've been on this cruise, we've decided to do it again sometime. A longer one. 3 days is nice to get to know if you like it or not, but it's not quite long enough to do much. On the third day we were finally able to direct ourselves around the boat without our map. And that was the day that we disembarked. It was really good. I had a really great time, and I am so ready to go again. Any takers?

I think cruising is addicting! Ours was 7 days and seemed like a great length. I'm glad you guys had so much fun! Oh, and I did not like Ensenada and totally felt the negative attitude thing too!
Sign us up! More than 1 day without kids while on a vacation would be heaven sent! I liked your write up and the pictures! And I was wondering how in the world you got a seagull in that picture!! Funny!
The pictures are great and it looks like you guys had a blast!
I wanna go! I wanna go!! I think the whole thing was a fantastic idea and James is lucky to have such an awesome wife to get him something so cool for his birthday!! I'm so glad you guys had fun and we'll totally book with you next time you decide to head to sea!!
