Take me out to Sea?

"Sometimes she missed people before they even left her, got depressed about a vacation being over before it started." 

Jennifer Close

Ask anyone and they will tell you the exact same thing; I am not a fan of cruises.  Out in the middle of the ocean on a ship?  No thank you!  Not for this girl.  Listen, I get it, there are some cruise fanatics.  I for one prefer to be on land.  Is that such a crime?  Which bugs the living crap out of my husband; he is a cruiser.  Don't knock it till you try it?  Been there, done that, I have the t-shirt to prove it.  Dude, still not a fan.

A friend of mine just came back from having the time of her life; on a cruise.  It made me think back to that time I went on a cruise with Felipe.  You know, back in 2009.  I realized that it actually wasn't so bad.  Honestly, it was one of the best times of my life. Well, the parts that I was standing my pretty little feet on solid ground (the Lido deck does not count).  Renting a scooter to drive all around Key West.  Renting a car to drive all around Cozumel, Mexico.  In the words of my husband, "It was fantastic!".  I agree, I agree.

If I close my eyes I can almost feel the sun on my face, the wind on my back, and the smell of the ocean wafting in the breeze.  Oh, and let us not forget about the deliciousness that was the chilly coconut water I was indulging in the photograph below. I guess cruises aren't so bad after all. 

Okay, I lied.  But for that boy I love?  Well, I guess I can make an exception.
