I will be entering some busy times for the next week or two and may not be able to keep up my current pace of posting. Tomorrow, we head off to Phoenix for the Regional Showstoppers Dance Competition. The kids (and Suzanne) are really excited. It’s a weekend away from the house and they get […]

The last two days of our wonderful cruise to Mexico have been spent at sea. We absolutely love the sea days on a cruise and always wish for more of them. To our surprise, the kids have recently said the same thing. I think they get a little bit run down going ashore and doing […]
Day 9 – Manzanillo

Today was our final port of call in Manzanillo, Mexico. The ship docks in a large industrial shipping port and getting off the ship can be a pain in the butt. You get off and get on a bus that transports you to the center of town where you can get on a taxi or […]
