We left May 19th for a kid-free vacation. We dropped the boys off at my mom's the night before, since we had a very early morning flight to LA. We arrived in LA and on the cruise ship without a hitch. The cruise was a 3 day cruise to San Diego, Catalina Island, and Ensenada, Mexico.
The first day was in San Diego where we went on an Olde Town Trolley tour which toured all sites in San Diego ending at Olde Town for margaritas and mexican food. We then toured the USS Midway, the longest running ship in the Navy, which is now a museum. The next day, Catalina Island and our Kayak trip was cancelled due to Gail Force wind warnings. We skipped that stop and had a leisurely day at sea - which wouldn't have been so bad if the weather was a little more pleasant. It was cloudy, overcast, and windy the entire trip (while my co-workers were in the Bahamas and St. Croix enjoying 90 degrees and sun). The final day was spent in Ensenada Mexico where we took a tour bus to the La Bufadora (the blowhole) and then toured the street market of Mexican wares. We ended the tour with an authentic mexican taco!
The cruise dinners and nightly entertainment were excellent. We looked forward to that part of day which included my "drink of the cruise", Lava Flow. We returned on Friday looking forward to an extended weekend with the boys and some nicer weather.
