Cruising to Cozumel

Have you guys began to wonder if I ate something bad in Mexico and was never going to blog again? Not quite. I almost didn't return but it wasn't because of rotten HORSE MEAT, it was because of Roger and his friend Greg FORCING me to ride on a mo-ped in excess of (what they claimed to be) 75 miles an hour. Other than that, I had a great time. We left on Dec 1st and came back Dec 5th. My mom and cousin came from North Georgia to watch the children and the puppies went to see DADDY (mommy went too). The best advice I can give you for a cruise is:
"RULES TO CRUISE BY"

1. Don't "up-grade" to a room with a view. There isn't anything better than sleeping in a cool, pitch black room with lots of covers and having NO IDEA what time it is.
2. Take walkie talkies, because by the time you find the person you are looking for you will want to toss them OVERBOARD.
3. Don't make long distance phone calls home to check on the children because the call WON'T even go thru and you'll still be stuck with a bill for $13.00 for even ATTEMPTING it.
4. Don't eat much for breakfast or lunch because you will want to CHOW DOWN at DINNER.
5. Buy one soda card for unlimited soft drinks instead of two like the rules say you have too. Trust me, they will never know.
6. And that Cuban Cigar you want to buy? DO IT! Customs doesn't look. (and now I can't go BACK!)
