How sad! Doesn't it just break you up when you find your kid has suffered, for any reason?
I better remember to NOT pack the tissues the last night! I'm gonna need them!
Have a fun trip this weekend! Drink lots!
Yes- it does break me up- I am still so sad for them. But what was SO great about those friendships (for Tyler, at least) is that it made him much more social- and he joined facebook just to be able to keep in touch with those kids. Although, now- he has 5ooo friends just like everyone else out there.
I'm with Drea on this one. Nada..unless you count a family road trip to Texas. I can only imagine what the last night on the cruise it like. I'm sad on land but when there is a whole boat full of moppy people....oh vey!
From Kara's post are you going to plan a dis mom cruise next year too?
I don't think there's a DISmom cruise next year- but there is a Kara, Jeff , Ellen & Pods trip to Mexico planned. AND the Fantasy Eastern over NYE 2013.
Hello, I really enjoyed reading your trip report. You have a beautiful family and you and your DH look really happy together, which is so cool.
Only problem is after reading your report I am green with envy and have been looking at cruise options out of LA/SD for spring break - not good since I'm getting sacked from my job end of the month.
Thanks so much! We are usually a happy couple, we are definitely blessed. I always say it is because we were friends first.
So- did you go on a cruise??
I did read your last two updates yesterday morning but didn't get a chance to post.
I have to say that your cruise sounded like a big success, especially with the boys. What a wonderful way to spend 9 nights and be able to sail practically from your backyard. That's wonderful. I definitely need to look into that. I want to take Nick on a cruise next summer for his HS graduation, but he won't commit. So who is the cruise really for? Nick or ME??????
Glad your boys had such a great time and that they found so many great kids to hang out with.
Cruising is BY FAR my kids favorite vacation- they get to feel independent and hang with friends, while we get to have family time, too. Everyone is happy. Have you made any cruise plans for yourself? Does it fit in with your 3 baziliion other trips?
It took me a few days to get caught up and read through everything...but what a fabulous trip.
I am sad that Timmy didn't have a great time though, but he sure did a good job at faking it. What a sweety.
Hi Jen! Thank-you- Timmy is a really sweet kid. He just turned 13- sooooo sad!
I finally finished. If I've said it once, which I have, I'll say it again: your reports always leave me wanting to take a cruise. I've been on three in my much younger years and was never overly impressed but I think it really might be time to explore this further. Every time I look, the cost and he feeling of being rushed in port are what prevents me but you seemed to really be ale to enjoy it all. There are 5 of which makes everything considerably more spendy. I'd appreciate any direction with booking. Great report. I'm sorry though Timmy had a rough go.
I think cruising has changed in a LOT of ways since yu went last (if that was when you were a kid). If you are really interested in doing it, we should talk sometime- I absolutely love to cruise, because it is soooo effortless- relaxing and yet entertaining as well. I love waking up somewhere new each day to explore. As far as feeling rushed in the port- well, I don't usually feel that way (except for the day in PR, but leaving at 1 was ridiculous) because I just look at it as getting a taste for a place rather than a full immersion. KWIM?
