The Beautiful Caribbean Blue
January 7, 2013 12:42pm, near Cuba and Haiti My very favorite color is the color of the deep ocean when a boat treads the water enough t make the gorgeous Caribbean blue foam erupt from its wake. The color of the deep blue ocean mixes with the sea clamor create the gorgeous blue green of …
A Difference of Attitude
January 6, 2013, 8:26pm, south of the Bahamas in the Caribbean Sea We decided not to go to dinner tonight and instead the out the buffet.

It’s a Hell of a Day on the Beach, Sir
January 5, 2013 3:03pm, off the coast of Princess Cats Yes, I stole that from Overboard. If you don't know the movie well enough to know from where I stole it, watch it again before asking. It was a great day. Perfect weather greeted us when we arrived in the Bahamas. We were taken by …
I Miss the Stars the Very Most

Where I Am Meant to Be

33,000 Feet
As I type this, we are in flight via AirTran to Ft. Lauderdale, FL. We will be leaving out on a cruise tomorrow morning to the Bahamas, Aruba, and Curacao. We have not been to the latter two nor Ft. Lauderdale before, so this time we really are going somewhere different. It will be a …
