I'm back on dry land and trying to get more crossed off the post-vacation to do list before heading back to work. Time for some details on the vaca, I am going to date them to the appropriate day, so be sure to scroll down a little. As a bit of a high level overview I will say this: the cruise was mostly older people. We were told that the average age was 65 and that there was only a few hundred out of the 3000+ that were under the age of 40.

On a bright note there were very few children, but the old people acted like spoiled brats at times, so I guess it was an even trade. I tell you - seeing old people ready to throw down and verbally squabbling over being first into the dining room or letting people off the elevator was entertaining. I have never seen so many scooters, wheelchairs, and canes w/ a fold up chair in my entire life. Don't get me wrong there were still quite a few youthful folks and great people to chat with. We were well paired with three couples at our dinner table who were great conversation and lots of fun.

It is good to be back home and in my own bed, but I'd rather not have to return to daily life for another week or so. Needless to say I relaxed a good bit!
