Cruise Away

Tweet

My dad has six sisters, and he dotes on them. My Aunt Joyce is vocal about him being her favorite brother, although everyone knows each sibling would do anything for each other. Over ten years ago my dad's siblings went on a cruise. I went as well as I still had money from my car accident, and hadn't been put on disability (my sister also came, and was my roommate). They all (mainly the brothers) couldn't come, but it was fun, and my late mom didn't have dementia, so it was great. They've all been saving for a couple of years to go again, and although my dad didn't know he'd be married again, he managed to come up with enough for Diana to go (they left Saturday). I guess if you have so many people coming in a group, you get some kind of discount. Four of his sisters are going, two with their husbands (the other two are widows). I told him to bring me back something weird or unusual. They are going to Jamaica, and then several stops in Mexico. The cruise I went on was to Cozumel, and one or two other stops in Mexico. But I've never been to Jamaica, so hopefully he'll find something to bring back. I used to collect candles so I'm hoping maybe he'll grab a candle. He said he'll forget, which he probably will, and that doesn't bother me. I know he's going to have fun, and that's the most important thing. One thing is true: you can't hang out with him and his sisters and not have fun. They're all pretty hilarious. Where would you go on a cruise to? I think I was ten when the church my dad pastored at the time sent he and my mom on a cruise to the Bahamas. That sounds good to me.
