We're Back!

Wow! Is all that can be said about our restful vacation. We had a blast! The food was great, the service was excellent and the pool was nice and chilly! The good thing is the weather was great. It stayed between 80 and 85 the entire trip and the lows at night were in the 70s. The ship itself was incredible, the room was a little small and for everyone who knows us, you know were not the smallest people in the world. But it wasn't too small for us to complain about it. Most of our time was spent by the pool, being waited on hand and foot. I was able to read, and take naps right there on deck 11 while Madi swam all day. Did I say all day? Yes, the last full day on the trip we stayed by the pool from 10:30 to 6. Thank God she was wearing sun screen! Lee and I got in with her a couple of times, but she made several friends while swimmimg and they stayed busy while we relaxed. We also ate so much that I think I gained 10 lbs. There was food from the time we woke up til the time we went to bed. It was incredible. As far as the islands we visited, we made port in the Bahamas at Nassau and Cococay. We got off the ship in Nassau and looked around a bit and that is where Madi got her hair braided. Nassau was OK. We didn't hang around long there and we then went back to the ship and back to the pool. We were having so much fun doing that we didn't even get off in Cococay! Madi ask if she could just swim all day and Lee wanted to lounge around, so that's what we did. It was the best vacation gettaway I think I have ever taken. So, that means this will become somewhat of an Alfano tradition and I don't see it being to far off from our next set sail!!!

Hope you enjoy what photos I did take. I am just not one for carrying a camera around with me all the time. Enjoy!

Happy Halloween!!



I hope everyone had a good time on Halloween. I know I did. We got to dress up at work and we had a blast, as you can see above. We also had a great time at the fall festival and I can't wait to do it again.

The above picture is myself and Shaundrea, and we wanted to be two of the nuns from Sister Act. Of course she is Sister Mary Clarence and I was Sister Mary Patrick. Hope you enjoy!
