Vacation’s over. NO! I’m not crying! …

Hello all, I am sorry for leaving for so long! But I’m back and well, while I brought some amazing tequila back from Mexico for myself, I only have these picts to share with you, hope you like them!

Basically I traveled around the Western Caribbean, while everyone was under some kind of Winter Weather Advisory, I was for the most part, enjoying the heat I have missed so much since leaving South Florida.

First I’d like to introduce you to the best cup of coffee I have ever had in my life. This was the first cup I had on the ship, on the first morning we were at sea, and it was brought to me by someone who got up earlier and made it instead of ME getting up and making it like I have for the last oh, 10 years?
Now if I could only figure out how to get an iv drip of coffee first thing in the morning…
OMG Coffee

As I slowly defrosted my bones after that amazing cup of coffee, I bravely leaned out over my balcony, after looking for sharks, and took this shot. I am in love with lighting and have a growing fascination with linear visuals as well, so to me this came out really cool. You can kind of get a feel for how a cruise is really just you out on a big ship with nothing but a deep dark ocean.

Light n' lines

Hi, Little Lina is doing a cameo on the island from LOST! I found the LOST island! I can save them all!!
jk, this is Labadee, Haiti, miles from Port-au-Prince. It’s what I saw out my window on the second day.

LOST

Haiti? I Lovie!
lame…but really, look at that water! Fabulous!! What winter weather advisories?? Muahahahaha!!!

Haiti

HE puts the lime IN THE COCONUT!!
It was really crazy when I first noticed this guy right behind me with a BIG machete…I sloooooowly realized what he was doing. I think, if you find a fallen coconut in Labadee, Haiti, you bring it to this man and he chops it up for you with a machete and creates some sort of tropical drink – WHEW!

He puts the Lime in the Coconut!!!

Oh hey look over there, it’s a beautiful sunset!

Sunset ... somewhere

Lastly of my favorite photos are these two. In Mexico, I was in bed next to the window, shades closed, sun peeking through. Closed my eyes for a bit, sun went away so I opened the shades again to see how big the clouds were and, BAM, There Were People Looking Back At ME!!! /shut blinds in a frenzy

Apparently another ship had docked right next to us, lovely hehe. Least there were no clouds yet. So while I got off the ship to track down some nice Tequila and a Corona with lime I kept snapping shots of the amazing ships together and the lighting, ah the gorgeous glowie lighting.

Ships

Ships again

That was the last port, it was a great vacation, thank you Royal Caribbean for knowing how to take such good care of all of us.
