Cruissseee....

I was fortunate enough to be able to go home for a week to visit family for Easter as well as squeeze in a short 3 night cruise to Ensenada. I was excited to a) go on another cruise, with family no less! and b) to visit Mexico for the first time. After less than 48 hours of landing, we were on our way to Long Beach to depart. I was eager to relax, enjoy the sunny weather and have a blast on the Carnival Imagination.

Although the weather was gorgeous on Friday, our day at sea, it wasn't warm enough to spend the day on the deck reading and sunbathing like I originally hoped. So instead, it was spent playing tons of trivia and games offered by the cruise. We even managed to win a ship-on-a-stick!

Our day in Ensenda was spent taking a bus tour of the city and a stop at one of the three only natural blow holes in the world. It was awesome to see despite it being the middle of spring break as well. After checking out the blow hole we wandered our way back through the shops and free samples to the bus ride back. Props to Juan our tour bus guide! He was very funny, interactive and informative.

Things have been a whirlwind since I have returned, and I can't believe it is already May! Here's to warmer weather, summer days and lots of things to do in NYC.
