Sunshine, relaxation, warm wind, beach, clear blue waters... You can take your pick of any of those words to describe my spring break. I think I've previously mentioned that I was going to go on a cruise for spring break. Well, I did and it was wonderful!! The Friday that break started, nine of us hopped into our cars and drove to St. Louis. There, we stayed two night's at Whitney's house. Whitney's mom is the wonderful lady who set up the cruise for us. From there, the nine of us, along with Whitney's mom and a family friend drove 13 hours to Lake Charles, Louisiana. We spent Sunday night there, at Whitney's grandma's house. On Monday, we got up and drove the final leg to Mobile, AL, where we got on the ship. At Mobile, we met up with another 6 girls from Olivet and 4 friends from Baylor University in Texas. We left port on Monday night and spent a day at sea on Tuesday. Basically, all day we layed out and ate a LOT of food :) Every night there was a large elegant meal planned for us where we could order whatever and as much as we wanted. On Wednesday, the ship docked in Cozumel. We got off of the boat and walked a couple of miles until we found a small restaurant that had a beach and a dock behind it. We stayed there all day and just swam in the blue water and enjoyed the hot sun! During our even
ings, there were a bunch of different show's you could go see. We spent a lot of time in the Kareokee room. A couple of people from our group sang. It was so fun! On Thursday we docked in Callica. There we took a taxi to a shopping area and beach. We shopped for an hour or so and then played volleyball on the beach. When we got back to the ship, we did dinner and then they were giving ballroom dancing lessons. We learned the cha cha. On Friday we had another day at sea. I have to say that those days at sea were my favorite. I loved the time we had to just relax and do nothing. We docked in Mobile again on Saturday morning. I think that I am the tannest that I have ever been in my whole life!
Spring break was hands down one of the best vacations I have ever had. Since we've been back, I've had four tests :( As I look ahead, I have a couple of big papers due over the next few weeks. It seems, though, that summer is coming at me a lot faster now than it was before spring break. It's amazing how much of a difference 10 days can make!!
