Anniversary Cruise and Anniversary

Last weekend Adam and I went on a cruise to celebrate our big 2 year anniversary. It was short 3 days, so pretty short, but the perfect little getaway for us!

It took off on Friday evening, so by the time we got on, got dressed, looked around at everything, it was already about dinner time. We had some drinks and went to dinner really late then went to a piano bar. It was fun and the piano player played some good tunes!

Saturday we spent the whole day at sea. We got up and did some exercising on the cruise track, ate breakfast, and spent the rest of the day at the pool. It was really fun. They had all sorts of contests going like who could mix the best drink, hairiest chest, etc. The rest of the day they had this Reggae type band play. It started out with a few little Asian kids dancing but by the end of the afternoon, I think a group of cougars had had a few too many because they were dancing machines at about 3PM, haha. That night we went to a very late dinner again, had some drinks, and went to bed earlier than the night before.

The next morning we arrived to Encinada, Mexico. We were torn between staying on the boat or getting off. Both of us have been to Encinada and have a bad taste in our mouth for it (a large suitcase full of 10 days worth of women's clothing and accessories getting stolen out of a car ring a bell to anyone?? :) Anyways, we decided it would be lame to not get off at all, so we went and went walking off of the boat for exercise instead of a boring track. I got closure by seeing the hotel we were planning on staying at, the parking spot where we got robbed, and the corner coffee shop where a nice Mexican man tried to help me find my stolen luggage. We only stayed off of the boat for a little over an hour, but it was good for me to make peace with the town of Encinada :)

After we walked around Encinada, we spent the afternoon in the hot tub and going down the giant water slide on the boat. Most of the families and kids were off doing stuff in Mexico, so the pool area was pretty empty. We thought it was the perfect time to go down the slide. The water was freezing but I went down the slide about 10 times, haha. Adam kept trying to get pictures, but his timing was off :)

Finally, we got ready and went to a lounge with a band. We had some champagne and sushi for an appetizer. We ate dinner, drank some more, did a little dancing even, and finished at the piano bar. The next morning the cruise ended. It was a great little trip and loads of fun!
