Cruisin’

Thursday, January 18th, 2007

As you all know we went on a cruise to celebrate Hank and Madeline’s 50th wedding anniversary. It was a lot of fun, we had a great time, did a little scuba diving and probably gained 10 lbs. Yes, the food was very good. I can’t believe how big cruise ships are, they are just rediculas. When we were docked in Galveston we were as tall as the tallest building. And the ships go fast, I think the top speed of our ship was 23 knots. After riding the PGS Ramform boats 23 knots feels like a sports car. It was good to spend time together.
