My Grandmother took my on my first cruise when I was twenty. It was a dinky little cruise on an OLD ship, but I had nothing to compare it to in my memory banks and loved it! I spent three days tossing back and forth on the unstabilized boat, having the time of my life. Our one port of call was Nassau, Bahamas. From there, I joined a shore excursion and headed over to a tiny little island for an afternoon on a tropical isle. It was fabulous! I left my Grandparents at the rotunda, eating the buffet-style lunch provided and went snorkeling, then found a hammock and stretched out beneath two palm trees over white sands, listening to the gentle waves lap up beside me. A wander around the shoreline brought a treasure of new experiences: The feel of sugar sand stuck to my fingers and toes; the smell of the salty, sweet Caribbean air; the feeling of utter relaxation sinking into every fiber of my being. Magic. It was love at first step.
Today that's where I'm dreaming of being.
Where do you want to be today?
