Endless Summer Tiny World

Yesterday I went snorkeling in Maui. We were supposed to go to molokini crater but ended up going to a spot off the coast. For some reason this happens a lot when trying to go to the crater, their excuse is wind or bad visibility. But I also think it’s a good thing too because the crater has too many trips to it each day and that contributes to the death of the coral. Also, I thought the spot they took us was better than the molokini crater! It was pretty amazing, a huge coral field that looked like an underwater forest. There were also large patches of sand throughout so the water had the best aqua and blue colors when looking at it from the boat! We also saw an eel which was pretty cool! All in all it was a great day at sea with awesome fish, food, friends and sunshine!

I’ve been back on ship for almost two full weeks and so far it is going well. As always in my two first weeks I keep wondering what am I doing here? But that generally goes away after a little while! Haha! I am working at the coffee bar on ship which means that I have to be awake and at work at 6 am everyday so that is starting to get a little rough, but I’m hoping this saturday I’ll change bars to one that is open only at night!

I am living all the way forward on ship which means lots of walking but that is always good for shaving off those vacation pounds!! Haha! I live with a bar server, and it was just me and her for a week which was extremely nice, and now with a waiter. They are both nice people and good roommates. I also have jen baker just one floor above me which is great to be so close so we can hang out! Chelsy and I are trying to get back in shape so we hav been trying to spend a good amount of time in the gym on my nights off! Also Chelsy and I got a car yesterday in Hilo and headed up the shore a little ways to some pretty lookout points and a couple parks. We stopped on the way back for a sandwich and found the best thing ever: a disposable grill!! It is a grill w built in charcoal and when you’re done cooking you throw it away! It is great so we can have bbq’s! And this thursday were gonna grill on the beach! All in all it was a good day.., just nice and relaxing and seeing a new area!

So things are good so far! I’m staying excited and hoping I an buy my ticket, or at least the first part of my ticket to travel soon! The dates when I go all depend on September’s wedding, but I’m hoping to know all that soon!! Keep in touch everyone!
