vacation - I'm baaaack

Post by fccs »

I'm leaving today for a nice vacation. Going to a baseball game tonight in Houston (to see my Anaheim Angels), and tomorrow we (my son, daughter-in-law, a good friend from California, and me) head down to Galveston for a Caribbean cruise (Roatan, Honduras; Belize City, Belize; Cozumel, Mexico).

I'm taking way more stitching than I'll do, but I like choices. :-) I doubt I'll check in once we sail because internet access isn't cheap on the cruise, so I'll have a lot of forum catching up to do when I get back.

My vacation was fantastic!! I could bore you endlessly with pictures, but picked just a handful instead to share.

First up, Roatan, where we spent the day at Tabyana Beach:

Our second port was Belize, where we visited the Mayan ruins at Altun Ha:
Image

Third port, Cozumel and snorkeling and playing with stingrays, and admiring a very handsome pelican:

And this is what I came home to yesterday:

I even got some stitching in. :-)

Looks like it was a great cruise!! My DH and I went on two cruises and loved them. We never made the western Caribbean so thank you for those great photos. Nothing boring about it that I can see!

She sure does! I wore my flipflops home...it wasn't a lot of fun walking though the snow covered grass...made for some very cold toes.

The trip was fantastic and I'm ready for my next cruise, probably out of Galveston again.
