Photos! Finally!

---

At long last, my laptop is working, the internet is working and travelblog is working! And so, highlight photos from my first two weeks of cruising. Has it really only been two weeks? It feels like so much longer.

Not much has happened recently because I've been onboard all week. I saw Panama and Costa Rica from the ship deck and I can't wait until next week when I'll be able to actually step on land there! Gorgeous it looks like. Our teens this week have been really great. At times a bizarre mix, but individually I've really enjoyed them.

Tomorrow we're back in Fort Lauderdale to switch passengers. And Tara leaves then. So I'll officially be on my own with the program. I can do it no problem on my own. But it's going to be lonely. It's such a solitary position and having had Tara to work with has been so great.

Our next two cruises are going to be really great, crazy and exciting. I'll save another post for that though . . . ooohhh . . . suspenseful isn't it?

Meanwhile, here's the photos!

hey there! sounds like you're having a blast. i just had a quick question. i just came across your journal, and i don't know if you already stated it, but i was wondering what cruise line you're on? i went on a cruise that was exactly like the one you're on now, so that's why i was asking. it went all through the panama canal and stuff. it was on princess cruise lines. well have a great time on the rest of your cruise!

I'm working for Carnival Cruise Lines. Most of the major cruise lines offer similar runs to the one I'm doing. Princess is a sub company owned by Carnival, so I'm sure some similarities are due to that as well.
