Ahoy Mate!

We embarked on the Disney Magic Cruise ship on Sunday, February 18, all 13 of us. Holy culture shock (LOL)! The beauty of this trip being a life experience means keeping it real, and keeping it real means exploring various levels of reality! Pura vida all the way!

This reality may be the best kind. The kind with family. We are with my parents, my siblings, and their families. And with unlimited access to ice cream. Enough said.

Sunday was the Disney welcome celebration. April went up on stage to dance with the welcome committee and Disney characters. So much energy!

Yesterday (Monday) we were at sea all day, and the girls swam in the pool, hung out at the Oceaneers Club, and enjoyed time with their cousins. Last night we enjoyed an excellent live production of Tangled (Rapunzel) in the Disney theater.

Today we were at Grand Cayman Island. Matt & Joey took the kids swimming with dolphins. They thought that was pretty incredible! April was initially concerned about the well being of the dolphins, but this experience made her feel assured that they are well treated and live a happy life. April left feeling that if everyone treated each other the way dolphins treat each other, and had as much fun as they have together, that the world would be a happier place.

Jennifer and I also ventured over to Grand Cayman and enjoyed some quality sister time catching up over lunch at the Seven Mile Beach.

After swimming with dolphins the kids and dads caught up with us for some fun on the beach.

Tonight we had our official birthday celebration for Do, my Mom. Jennifer, Bill & I gave her a triple Infinity "Endless" bracelet from Tiffany to represent the eternal love she has taught the three of us, and that we feel for her. We were treated to a beautiful sunset through the portholes from the restaurant (again, photos never do a sunset justice).

Tomorrow will be another day at sea, with endless fun and hopefully sunshine.

I'm happy that each day I've managed to find a quiet corner on the ship to practice yoga at around 7am. Tomorrow mom, Jennifer and Riley say they are going to join me.

Only love... xo
