Helloooo blog peoples! We just got back from our Spring Break cruise yesterday. This Monday-Friday was the most relaxing 5 days I've had in a longgg time. Feels good to be completely worry-free about school related troubles for an entire week :D Anyways, the last couple days have been filled with a LOT of food, & when I say a lot I actually do mean a lot--I've put on significant weight since we left Long Beach port which you can probably see progressively happening throughout these pictures coming up. Luckily, I regret nothing & had the time of my life with our 7-meals a day routine
Day 1--Long Beach port, exploring the ship. Not pictured: Escargot, Smoked Duck Breast, Flatiron Steak, Key Lime Pie (FAVE!) & Melting Chocolate Lava Cake
Day 2--Our first stop at Catalina Island. Spent the afternoon walking around the little strip of shops along the coast and lounging at a local bar
I <3 CORN DOGS! Right before getting back on the boat. I had to
Yes we did. Picture of a picture, I'd say it was a great $14.99 saved on each of these pix~ teehe
One of the 4-5 times we ordered room service :D Mozzarella, tomato & portobello panini, Reuben, & grapefruit + apple juice. The life
Day 2 dinner--Lobster Tail & Grilled Shrimp. Not pictured: Stuffed Mushrooms, Prime Rib & Black Forest Cake
Day 3--Docking in Ensenada. We decided on taking the tour to La Bufadora, one of the biggest blowholes that happens to be located in Mexico. Passing the hour or so on the bus with taking pictures of ourselves & surroundings~
Exactly what it looks like. A mom holding her two kids by the little strap on their shorts to keep them from falling head first into the blow hole~ Parenting 101 right here.
Freshly made churros! The BEST we've ever had~ missing it already
Restaurant overlooking the ocean. Too pretty
Day 3 dinner--Jerked Pork Loin. Not pictured: Grilled Chicken with Fettucini, Tiramisu, & Cappuccino Ice Cream Cake
One of the little friends we made each night coming back from dinner. I'm still not completely sure what this is supposed to be.
Day 4--Our "Fun Day At Sea". Strawberry Pina Colada while lounging around the Casino Deck watching the waves. Super relaxing
Our pre-dinner sushi x 3 taaha
Day 4 dinner--Assorted Sushi Plate. Not pictured: Mushroom Cream Soup, Seafood Pasta with Tomato Cream Sauce, Country-Style Meatloaf & Baked Alaska. Our last day in the dining room!
Last day festivities--caught about 4 shows this night to make up for all the ones we missed due to severe food comas/napping after dinner. Musical & 3 comedy shows. Loved it!
First day back on Friday--1st stop, BCD Tofu; 2nd stop, Yen Sushi!!! Oh how I've missed you this past week. Sashimi Salad & Disco Shrimp Roll. Not pictured: Yellowtail Collar, Popcorn Lobster Roll & Genki Roll. I could eat this every day of my life. Oh & last stop: Cha For Tea. Boba withdrawals are the scariest, wouldn't you say?
But yes, this is the end of our Spring Break 2012 trip. I still have today and tomorrow to relax and then it's time to get back into school-mode... Last quarter @ UCI here I come!
P.S. Special thanks to my boyfriend for the lovely pictures. How lucky I am to have him to compensate for my lacking camera skills~
