Cruise Blog entry 03- Dec. 27,
2008
2008
A belated Merry Christmas to all y'all!
Right now we are docked in Barbados. This whole week has been a frenzy of fun parties and activities. I enjoyed
going down to the Winter Wonderland party on Christmas Eve, and tomorrow night I might stop down at the pop
idol karaoke contest for a bit.
This cruise I am getting more chances to do some tours. The other day in Bonaire, I took a wonderful tour of the
Mangrove forests. These unique trees grow in the backwaters of the ocean, but they need fresh water to live.
Our guide explained the fascinating process by which they extract the salt from the water and absorb only the
purified water.
Tomorrow I am taking a ride through the rainforests of St. Lucia in a 4x4 Jeep.
My new roommate is super nice! Her name is Barbara, and she is one of the four Polish musicians in the string
quartet. We have been getting along very well. She is older than I am (she has two teenage daughters back
home), so it is kind of like having a surrogate mom or big sister on board.
Despite all the fun adventures I am having on board, I am looking forward to coming home again. My contract
officially ends January 13th, on which day I expect to be traveling to Austin. It will be good to see my family and
friends again!
I wish everyone a Happy New Year in advance, with best of luck for 2009!
