8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 15

[dahuffy]

Look it's me under the sea...

Well actually it's no sea...it's only the pool at the Vistana Villages....

I took an intro to scuba class and i really liked it. Might just have to look into Scuba Certification classes here at home... Then i'd just have to get past the shear panic factor of deep sea and sharks or large fish.

Lookin' good girl!

Hey everyone. Here I go again trying to ketchup. It's been an up and down past few weeks - months. Part of my trouble catching up is that my mom was diagnosed with lung cancer. I was a bit worried that I would have to cancel this cruise because I couldn't be away that long. Unfortunately, that is not the case. My mom passed away last Friday. I was lucky enough to be with her full time for the last week, which is a big part of the reason I have gotten so far behind.

Now for the good. One year from today I will be celebrating the big 4-0 on this cruise!!! I am really excited for that as I celebrated my birthday a couple years ago on the Magic on the PC cruise then.

Just wanted to let ya'll know that Walmart is putting out Halloween stuff right now and I saw several POTC things on the shelves. Really decent prices too.

Tracy, first let me send you my sympathies to both you & Bill for the loss of your mother. I'm glad that you were able to be with her, but so sorry for your loss. Naturally, if there's anything we can do, please let us know.

Second, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Does this mean you're having a party next year?

It is, after all a sea day....

Glad to see you with us once again.

Had a great time on the Crown Princess, a 9 day cruise is sooo much better than a 7 day. The little guys (Ian Thomas 7 months) took a few days to get his sea legs, but everyone fushed over him. Too many people on the ship (3100) and sea days were crowded. The food was fair, not up to DCL standards. The one great thing is they have a great no smoking policy and enforce it, twice people walked in our area and they were right on them. I wish DCL was as good, for this reason alone I'd sail with them again. Embarkment was quick and easy, docked at 7am off at 9am, got our luggage and was leaving by limo at 9:35 from Brooklyn and arrived home at 11:45am.

Took out our 700 pictures from Acapulco when we were there in the mid 80's and went through them, brings back a lot of memories. We were high on the hill above the harbor and had servants a cleaning/cook who fixed great meals. We spent three great weeks there. You do not under any conditions go off the main thoroughfares. One of the servants took us for a ride one day and the back streets are patrolled by troops with automatic weapons, he said it was not safe. The flea market is great you must not pay the asking price if something is $9.00 you can get it for $2.

I was in Aruba 3 years ago and a couple of things stand out in my mind.
The first is that Aruba was very windy. I have long hair so it was a pain.
Secondly is there must be 2 sides of the island. We went to the "wrong" one. It was very industrial, very, very windy and not so pretty. We will make sure we do not back to the same side again.

On a side note, I listed the stops when I donated blood last week and they said I would be blocked for a year after we get back. I will make sure I go every 2 months during the next 12 months and then maybe I won't feel so bad next year not being able to donate.

Yes I was banned for donating after our Western. 2 years ago. We were diverted to Costa Maya since Cozumel had been hit hard by the hurricane just before we cruised. It was Costa Maya that got me banned.

You should be proud. I dont think I could even scuba in a pool. I even have a hard time snorkling. I start to panic (even though all I have to do is lift my head 2 inches)

Our county is doing a big drive tomorrow but alas....i am banned because of Costa Maya too until December. Well that and because of my surgery in February....I'm banned permanently because blood loss of even a pint will really throw my iron levels and i'd have to have an infusion to compensate.

Oh trust me i did panic a bunch the first time down....and second... and third... I was literally shaking and thought i really couldn't do it....

Then i started doing the breathe out...breathe in.... At first i breathed out/in alot but then i went to more normal breathing as i got used to it...

The only real problem i had was one time when i turned my head funny and the mask started to fill with water. I had to surface to empty out.

I'm so sorry about your mom Tracy.

Happy 39th! There seems to be a bunch of us turning 40 next year (moi included) - sounds like a great reason to go cruising to me!
