Girlfriends Cruise 2025 - Days 7 and 8 - Sea Day with Chef's Table and Return Home

 We have our last Sea day today and I want to enjoy it as much as I can while still getting all the "requireds" done.

Our last breakfast together gets the day off right.

Girlfriends Cruise 2025 - Day 6 - Cozumel, Mexico

 Cozumel and fun awaits us today.  We are playing on our own and looking forward to fun.  Last year's visit can be found in this 2024 Trip post.  Check it out if you want more information than I'm giving today.

Here comes Cozumel!!

Girlfriends Cruise 2025 - Day 5 - Costa Maya (Mahahual, Mexico)

Today's port is Costa Maya, Mexico and we really don't have any plans.  Last time here, we did do an excursion and saw a bit more of the area.  Here is the 2024 LINK if you wish to see more about this part of the world.

I'm up and watching us come into port - looks like we have company today.

Girlfriends Cruise 2025 - Day 4 - Isla Roatan, Honduras

 We have our first port day today and the only excursion that we have paid for.  We are doing the Top 10, but there are not 10 stops so it's a bit misnamed.  At any rate, come along and see a bit of Isla Roatan.  I did do different things last trip, so here is the 2024 LINK if you are interested in seeing more of the island.

I'm in love with being able to watch us come into port from the balcony of our room.  It is such a full view.  This docking always throws me for a bit as we back into port.  My view became out to sea after a bit.

Girlfriends Cruise 2025 - Days 1-3 - Departure and Sea Days

 The girls and I have all met up!  It's time to board the ship and we are EXCITED!!  Some of us have been on the Jubilee before so I'm not going to share all the features of the ship this time.  If you are interested in seeing spots all around her, here is the 2024 LINK where I did post many pictures.

We get a bit of a photo bomb, but we're almost there. 

Early Departure For Cruise - Gwen and I

 Weather forecasts are not  looking good for the DFW area so Gwen and I make a last minute decision to leave for Galveston 2 days early.  Packing, grocery shopping, and craziness ensued, but by 4 p.m. I am on my way to pick up Gwen in Ennis.  We're only going as far as Corsicana tonight, but it is below the frost line.  Our first stop is to find dinner at a restaurant that Gwen knows about.  After that, we are off to the hotel and a good nights sleep.  We are both pretty dang tired.

New Year's Eve Family Time 2024

 Rhiana and family are flying through Dallas with an overnight layover on her way home from Mexico.  We are thrilled to have the chance to spend some time together and rented a couple of hotel rooms near the airport to spend as much time as possible without traveling from home and back.  Mister and I get there a wee bit early to set up the room for a Christmas party.  We have gifts and treats.  Also, Jen and some of her family have also booked rooms at the same place and we are all together for this fun.
