Hi all. We are back from our Hawaiian Cruise and it was very nice. I am so grateful that the six of us went together because we did so many fun things together. We hiked around and down, across and up the crater of a volocano in Hilo, we walked in the botanical gardens, shopped, snorkeled (bad day for that) one turtle, visited Pearl Harbor, we went on a local tour for Hawaiian food and that was outstanding. We went in a submarine and that was cool. Will went deep sea fishing. I walked the deck everyday for two miles unless we had gone out and walked like the volcano then I just took a hot shower and prayed I wouldn't get cramps in the middle of the night. We met some very interesting people. There were two ladies that had brought along their knitting, both knitting socks, I also brought mine, but did not have time to knit. I have so many pictures and so this week I am hopeful to go through and edit them so that I can post a couple. I got a new camera on the trip so I played quite a bit with it. We ate some wonderful foods on the cruise. Weight Watchers didn't exist on this trip because there was no way I would know how the food was prepared and what was in it. I tried to eat as healthy as possible, but I must admit that there were some deserts that put me way over the edge. So far my scale tells me I gained one pound, but on Thursday morning the truth will be known. :-) If I only gained a pound I will be dancing in the streets to celebrate. lol
My knitting will start back up in February. Lindita and Will are here until the end of January and we still have some things planned so I have just decided that it is best to wait since I am only able to do a few rows at a time and my tension will be all off.
Glad to be home. I still have my sea legs. Now I have to start thinking about the Sea Socks Cruise in April.
