Where to begin??? So, we were planning a nice ultra-relaxing cruise and for the most part that is what we got, it just didn't play out quite like we planned.
With the unexpected Ike taking a turn for Houston, Miguel, Nayeli and myself opted to leave 4 days early for our cruise. Luckily for us, Andy and Corrie were gracious enough to let us crash at their house unexpectedly.We began our trip in Houston, went to Nashville and then on to Columbus. We then drove down to Cincy and stayed for a couple of days. (Everyone at Mom's had a stomach flu so we were trying to avoid that!)
Then we drove back to Columbus, flew over to Baltimore and on down
to Fort Lauderdale. Tired yet? All the while Miguel and I were
totally stressed about our house in Houston. We still hadn't heard
anything. In the morning we caught a shuttle to the Port of Miami.
All things considered....we were pretty happy!
Then the fun began, we heard from our neighbor who said our house looked fine from the outside and there was no water anywhere in our neighborhood. RELIEF!!! We could finally relax a little and enjoy.....so we did. The next couple of days we were in Key West, FL and then on the Cozumel. There was jet-skiing and snorkeling and just good old kickin' back.
Beautiful, right? (Of course the sunset is nice too!!)
We did have a great time and can't wait for another vacation. Maybe this time we will try not to plan it during hurricane season!
