See, guest blogging SUCKS......LOL Thanks for trying gals.

I'M HOME!!!!!! and I just had to cook my first meal in about a week, that sucks!!!!! LOL

We had SUCH a freakin' blast. The kids had SUCH a good time in Camp Carnival. I only saw the activities for the 2-5 and 6-8 year olds, but they hated it when camp wasn't going on, LOL. We had a day and a half at sea, and only 10 hours in Halifax, then another day and a half back. The weather up was quite rough. Wind was 20 knots/hour and we couldn't go outside the first day with out being bundled up and strapped down, LOL. The weather up was a little rough, however, coming home, we felt like we were in the Caribbean, warm, sea breezes, sun and hardly any motion. Wind was like nothing....can't remember the knots/hour though. I wore the Sea Bands and didn't get sick, and the kids never complained.


I met a girl that I've gotten to know on Mom's Life. I'm glad John took the kids to the boat, so I was able to walk the docks with her and her DH and daughter without whining!! We took a 3 hour bus tour that went ALL through Halifax, like street by street. Our first stop was at a graveyard that 121 victims of the Titanic are buried. Quite interesting. We also learned about this massive explosion in 1917 that killed over 2,000 and more people. We then went to the Public Gardens, and the Citadel, which is the highest point in Halifax.
Now, back to reality :-(

The saddest part of the trip is that John went into a drawing for a free cruise, and they called a number, exactly 20 numbers before his :-( Two people before him......ARGH Now, there is a second sad point......I opened up my souvenir bag to find two bottle of blueberry syrup with their caps broken and one of them on my souvenir tee :-( Odd that no glass was broken and just the caps were, like they were screwed on too tight my customs or something......it's too weird.

Cool part, he won $600 in the casino, which paid for tips and charges during the trip......

Off to cook chicken nuggets and mac n' cheese, LOL
