Mexican Riviera Cruise Day 1

The day after graduation we got up bright and early and headed to the Portland Airport headed to Long Beach, CA.  We left Jace with my parents for the week and enjoyed a 7 day Mexican Riviera Cruise to celebrate graduation along with five other couples.  The first day we boarded the ship and had fun walking around each deck and eating all the yummy food.  It was still cold outside so we were anxious to get further south so we could enjoy some warmth and sunshine.
We decided to wear our shirts again and lots of people asked us about them and congratulated the guys on graduating.
We cruised on the Carnival Splendor.



The splendor was docked by the Queen Mary that you can see in the background of this picture.  You can also see the ramp, on the left hand side, that we walked on to board the boat.
Goodbye USA.
Our dinner was served to us every night in the Black Pearl Dining Room at 6pm.  It was delicious food and it was fun to be waited on every night.  It felt like a date night every night!  There were three couples at each table and our tables were right next to one another so we switched seats every so often so we could eat with everyone.

I'm so glad all of you were able to go "cruising" together. It was a long haul; you definitely deserved the vacation.
