Cruisin' Part 1

Well are back from a fabulous caribbean cruise with my family and my sister's bff JEV.  We took the Carnival Legend out of Tampa, Florida with stops in Cozumel, Belize, Honduras & Grand Cayman.  We started our journey to Florida on Saturday, November 5 and got to see every single one of our immediate family members in ONE DAY!!!  We even got to meet our beautiful new niece SC in Columbia with her parents and sister M.  After dropping the dog off in Spartanburg with his Grammie and aunt Lily we took the last leg of the departure on a flight out of Charlotte to Tampa, whew!! 

We got on the boat Sunday morning (November 6) which just so happened to be my and Mr. R's 1st anniversary!  We ate alot, drank alot, slept alot and I finished 4 books (including book #1 of The Hunger Games---its a MUST READ).

PART 2 COMING TOMORROW!

Wanderlusting

WANDERLUST: a very strong and irresistable impulse or desire to travel the world.

Its no secret that Mr. R and myself are huge fans of world travel.  Our favorite TV show is Amazing Race and we pretend each episode that we are competing, we might even try out one day...if we can get in shape haha.  I was very fortunate to travel alot as a child and Mr. R has gone the more "wilderness" route with his Boyscout and NOLS adventures.  I come from a long line of wanderlusters and we are excited about our up and coming voyages to Kiawah and the western Carribean.  We hope to travel many places in our lifetime including a couple of these out of this world locals.  Where is the one place in the world you would drop everything to travel to?
