Mexico!

Hi everyone! Well, I write to you from the English pub on the Mariner of the Seas. It is day of trip from LA to the Mexican Riviera.

I left Philly on Saturday feeling a little sad that I would not be in town for St Pats. It is by far my favorite week of the year and I was bummed to see my family getting dressed for the Springfield parade as I for the airport. I hear everyone had a great time at the Springfield and Philly parades!

I spent an uneventful and sleepy night in Long Beach CA before boarding the ship. It is your standard gigantic cruise ship to be enjoyed with 4000 of your closest friends! There are many young people on this trip - a lot more then usual. This is of course bcs it is Spring Break. Ah drunk college kids! Nothing better! As if my olf fat ass wasn't self conscience enough, I have to look at a bunch of 18 year old twigs in bikinis all day!

Shot all day on Day 1 and today. However, today I actually had a VERY rare 2 hours off during daylight hours and I spent 2 glorious hours lying in the sun, listening to my ipod, tuning out the world and watching the coast of Mexico go by! It was sooo nice!

I must head off to the Captains Reception now. Tomorrow it is speed sailing in Cabo San Lucas! I will write more then and post some pics! Hope you are all well!
