Carnival Cruise Fun Days At Sea Recap

Russ at 4:45PM

After getting checked in on Tuesday we hit the spa while leaving the Port of San Diego. In the evening while at dinner we met our table mates — Zach and Autumn from Washington — and our waiter — Larry. Morgan and I wrapped up the night by watching an unfunny comedian.

Yesterday after breakfast and the gym we spen some time laying out getting burned and meeting the waiter that we will be using for the rest of our cruise — Inyoman from Indonesia. Morgan and I booked our excursions. In Acapulco we are watching the cliff divers during our Curltural & Picturesque Acapulco excursion. The following day we will be at the Ixtapa Island Getaway and then Sunday in Manzanillo we are doing the seven hour Colonial Tour that includes recently discovered pyramids of La Compana. After our lobster dinner we went to Zach and Autumn’s room for drinks before the “High Spirits” show.

Today we slept in then went to breakfast and the gym (I worked out with Zach). It’s now about time for us to get our second share of sushi and start getting ready for our “Past Guest Party” and dinner. We’ll update again on Monday to recap the excursions.

We Are Off To Mexico

Russ at 4:30PM

The day has finally arrived! In 30 minutes Mason is going to arrive at our house to take us to the airport. We are scheduled to land about 9:00PM in San Diego. If things go right, we might have enough time to get a drink at Karl Strauss Brewing Company. Tomorrow we are arriving at our Carnival Cruise dock around 1:00PM to get checked in and then we’ll be departing at 4:00PM for Acapulco, GR.

Look for a few Twitter updates in the near future, and then maybe we will send an update or two from the ship. Expect lots of wonderful pictures and a recap of our vacation the first weekend in March.

No Hua Dog For 10 Days

Russ at 1:23AM

I drove to Nevada City today to drop Hua off to my parents while Morgan and I are on vacation. While I was there we went to lunch at Kane’s Fine Food Restaurant, I have been there on two other occasions and it definitely didn’t disappoint today either. I had the Kane’s Burger and a beer.

I was really tired when I arrived home around 6:30PM but the boredom outweighed the tiredness and I went over to Ethan and Mel’s for some leftover eats and the movie Yes Man. That movie cracks me up! Tomorrow Morgan returns from visiting Daisha in Oakland and our Sunday is dedicated to preparing for our much needed 8 Day Carnival Exotic Mexican Riviera Cruise. We need to purchase a few necessities and pack.

Pama’s Birthday Party

Russ at 4:23PM

This morning I headed up to Auburn for Pama’s Birthday. I left early so that I could have breakfast with Ethan and Mel. Mel chose to go to Katrina’s Cafè, I had been to Katrina’s in the past but I didn’t remember it being so good! I had the Chicken Chipotle Omelette and it was the best I’ve ever had, I will definitely be going back soon.

Following breakfast Mel and I went to BevMo to pick up a new keg, I went with Rubicon Brewing Company’s IPA, we will be tapping it tonight and playing some Beer Pong on the table that Mason built for us. Eventually we had some Old Town Pizza at the Old Town Dessert Cafè while Pama opened up various cards and gifts.

Before returning home Mel and I stopped in the Auburn Alehouse to get a drink, I went with the Isotope PU240 DIPA, yum! Now I have to tidy up the house in case someone actually shows up tonight.
