Pizza!!!!!! YES!!!!!

I have a couple of updates today!!
The Scentsy fundraiser is going GREAT!! We are getting lots of orders! Everyone that has ordered online has gotten their products within just a couple of days!

ANNNNDDDDD The custom bracelets are NOW in production!!! I'm not sure how long it takes, I think it said something online like 7 days from the day you order. So they should be done soon and will then ship out! I can't wait to see them! We've gotten a TON of orders for them also. As a matter of fact, once I deliver/collect the money just for the ones that have been ordered as of today, I will have more than enough money to order ANOTHER 200. Maybe I will order 300 even, since these are going so fast, and I want to have plenty at each of the fundraisers :) They are $3, if you would like one before the fundraisers, let me know on here or on facebook!
****EDIT!!!**** The bracelets are DONE and are being inspected and cleaned before they are packed up to ship out! WOOHOO!!!!

Now, back to the CRUISE!!!! :)....................................................................................................

Tuesday morning we woke up in Haiti. Or rather, at the port in Haiti. I felt GREAT!! The ship wasn't moving and I was okay. We got ready for the day and went down to the dining room for breakfast.

The breakfast was delicious and we had some good conversation with some other passengers that we were seated with. We then went back to our room to get everything we needed for our day at the  beach!
We had to take a ferry from our ship to the actual port. And we had our choice of multiple beaches to enjoy. We picked one and a man set up two chairs for us. We thanked him and he disappeared. It was warm, the sun was shining, and the view was AMAZING! We had picked the beach that had the zip line going directly over it, without knowing it. Since Danny couldn't do the zip line, it was nice to watch other people enjoying it.

"That's so awesome" No, that's so scary...
"If you say so. I guess it's awesome from down HERE... but not up there."
We laughed about my extreme fear of heights, and then a creepy crawly decided to scare me on the beach... A sand crab came right over to us and dug himself into the sand underneath MY chair!!!

"It's not going to hurt you, it's just enjoying the shade." AHHHHHHHHHH Ewwwwwww
"It's GROSS!!!"
"It's not gross, it's just a crab..."
"The only crab I like in Haiti is the Crabb sitting next to me... with two b's that is..."
"Ha! Well, that Crabb likes you... but so does the sand crab... with one b."

We decided to go cool off in the water, and it was so clear I couldn't believe it! We couldn't go far out because it wasn't sandy and we hadn't brought our water shoes off the ship. But we splashed around and had some fun. The water was the perfect temperature!
After a couple hours, we noticed people walking by with plates of hamburgers and chips and other yummy food. We were starving!
"Where are they getting that food?"
"That building over there..."
"I wonder how much it costs."
"Ha. Probably like $10 per plate... So, are you ready to go back to the ship and eat there then?" My husband knows my cheap-o ways SO WELL :)
"Yeah, lets go find some FREE food!"
On our way back to the ship we decided to stop and have our picture taken by the cruise ship photographers.

We got back tot he ferry and were taken back to the ship, where we changed and then went through the maps and brochures for all the restaurants on the ship...
"You're going to be mad..." Me? Mad? What??
"Why? What?"
"This says that the food on the beach was free.... it was provided by the cruise ship." Gosh DANG it!!!
"So we could've enjoyed more of the beach, and eaten there for free TOO?"
"That's what this says... BUT... I just found the PIZZA restaurant!" Pizza!!!!!! YES!!!!!
"Is it free?"
"Yes it is." Free, there's nothing better!!
So we headed down to the pizza place and chowed down on the delicious food. Since we were still at the port, we decided we could walk around the inside of the ship and explore for a while before the sea sickness would kick in. And we were set on seeing everything there was to see before the ship started moving. We seen the casino, the theater, the stores. We went into the jewelry store and looked around, and I checked out a few sales and the kiosks.
We eventually went back to our room and watched TV. One channel told us what all there was to do at the next cruise port. We were heading to Jamaica, and we had no excursions planned, so that meant we could do some shopping! By the time dinner rolled around, I wasn't up for sitting in the dining room again. I was hungry though, so we went down to the buffet. We filled our plates and then found a place to sit. A server came around to ask if we needed any drink refills or anything else. We were fine so she said she would check on us in a bit. We finished eating and I helped myself to some ice cream for dessert. We were sailing and the ship was moving (but not as much as before) and I was still okay. I was eating and in a type of dining room and I wasn't feeling sick!!
"So have you two enjoyed the cruise so far?" The server was back and was so nice.
"Well, we enjoyed today because she wasn't sick." Ha ha ha that husband of mine thinks he's funny....
"Oh no!! Sea sick?!"
"Yep... I am a big baby I guess."
"No no no, it's the storms!!" HA!! I WAS RIGHT!!!!
"You mean the ship doesn't normally move this much?!"
"Not at ALL. I've been working on this ship for months. The first few weeks I got used to sailing and was okay. But the last two nights I've been more sick than I've ever been! The storms have made for some awful waves and my roommate is making fun of me, saying it's like my first week all over again!"
"Well, THANK YOU for making me not feel like such a baby anymore!"
"You're not a baby. Believe me. Hopefully the storms stay away, and you can enjoy the rest of your nights on board! I can see you are done here so I won't keep you, but feel free to come eat here in my section any time!" She's so nice! 
The rest of the night was okay. I didn't feel like I had the nights before, and we spent a lot of time on the balcony. We weren't going to try to go to the bars or clubs or anything, in case the sea sickness came back.  The weather was beautiful and the balcony is where we wanted to be anyway.

We went to sleep that night and woke up to such a FABULOUS view. We weren't to the port quite yet (we were up very early) and Jamaica was so pretty! We decided to hang out on the balcony and just take it all in.
I'm not sure how long we sat out there, but we eventually pulled right into the port and we headed down for breakfast. We went to the buffet again, so we could get in and out fast.
"Wow... That's the biggest breakfast buffet I've ever seen...."
"And you thought we would be in and out of here fast? I'm going to eat like three plates full!!"
We ate... and ate... and ate some more. And then when we were walking out, I seen the doughnuts!!
"Oh my gosh... Hold on... I need a cinnamon sugar!"
After I stuffed my face even more, we decided to grab some water and head out to do some shopping. We walked out of the ship and immediately got in line to get our picture taken in Jamaica.

We found a bunch of shops and got a few shirts, and used some coupons from the book that Danny got after sitting through the shopping meeting thing. And then we went after the one item that Danny wanted. A watch. It would be his wedding gift from me (only a little late) and he planned on getting a good deal on it. We had to walk away from the port shops to get to the big shopping center area where the jewelry stores were.
"Hey man, do you want to see the REAL Jamaica? Not what the cruise line wants you to see, but the REAL Jamaica?" What the heck?
"No thanks, we are just heading over there to shop."
"Oh don't shop there, that only benefits the cruise lines. Shop in the REAL Jamaica, so the Jamaicans will profit."
"No thanks, we are really just going to head right over there."
"If you come with me in my taxi I will even throw in some weed man." WHAT?!?! Is this guy SERIOUS?!?!
"Uhhh no thanks."
We walked away from that guy as fast as we could, and then ran into at least 3 other men repeating the same exact thing.
"Danny, walk faster. I hate this."
"I know, come on. Just ignore them when they talk to you, they aren't taking no for an answer."
We finally made it to the shopping area, and Danny did some haggling over the price of the watch he wanted. The jeweler went down in price, but he didn't get low enough for Danny to want to spend his money, so we decided not to buy. We did, however, find me a pair of beautiful pink sapphire earrings. Danny said I could get two pairs of earrings if we could get good deals, so we talked the jeweler down for my pink sapphires. I was a happy camper!!
"There's the Hard Rock... let's go there."
"Okay, I'm hungry anyway, so let's eat there after you find the shirt you want."
"Destiny, you're ALWAYS hungry." I would've given him a shove off the sidewalk if he hadn't been grinning so big when he said that.
The restaurant section of the Hard Rock was closed. Danny found a few things he wanted and we headed out to another store to find a few more things for Faith. Color changing nail polish, color changing sea shell necklace. Shirts for her and I. We had lots of bags and I was ready for lunch.
"Do we get to have pizza again today?"
"Yes, of course. I wouldn't try to keep you away from that place now." I LOVE HIM!!!
We went back to the ship, avoiding every taxi driver that tried to take us to the "real Jamaica." We put our bags through the screener, and then collected them and dropped them off in our room. The pizza was as delicious that day as it was the day before and after eating we decided to go hang out on the main deck.

Storms were brewing and it was almost time to sail off. I was crossing my fingers that we would get out of there ahead of the storm and it wouldn't catch up to us!
"It is now time to sail, however we are slightly delayed."
The speaker was loud and clear on the deck, instead of sounding muffled like it did from our room.
"We are waiting on a few people who were NOT on cruise sponsored excursions. We will wait ten more minutes, and then we are sailing. Please note that it is stated in your Cruise Compass and by all exits that we will not wait on you if you are late returning to the ship, unless of course you are on a Royal sponsored excursion. This is the last time we will wait on passengers."
"Babe, do you really think they'll leave without those people?"
"Yeah, they have to make up all this time tonight, by going faster. They have to get to the next port by a certain time because of all the excursions people have booked and paid for. I'm surprised they're waiting this long."
We headed to our room and stood on the balcony, we were right over the exit so we watched the four people who were late, finally boarding the boat. Three of them were running. The other was just strolling along like he had all the time in the world. I guess he didn't care about the few extra minutes that he was costing the rest of us.
That night we ate at the buffet again. I told our server that the night before was a great one and that I didn't get sick, and she said she was feeling better too. We seen some lightning in the distance and I was hoping that the storm was so far away that we wouldn't feel any effects.
After dinner we went back to our bedroom and made final decisions on our excursions.
"Okay, since we want to go to the Ruins... I need to swim with the dolphins in Grand Cayman. But, which of the Ruins tours do you think we should do?"
"Well, the Ruins tour plus beach time sounds nice. But the shopping is supposed to be really good in Cozumel, and I know that makes you happy. So, whichever you want to do." He spoils me rotten...
"Well, since we missed out on some beach time in Haiti because we didn't realize the food was free... let's do the the tour plus beach time. It says it includes food, so I will be happy." The smile on Danny's face sealed the deal. I had made the right decision with that one!
Danny went down to purchase the excursions at the Reservations Desk, and I settled in for the night. He was back just a few minutes later and it was all taken care of.

We fell asleep while watching the Newlywed Game, which was played the first or second night in one of the theaters. We were answering the questions ourselves, and were right, knowing each other's answers just like we knew our own. And then we both just slowly drifted off.

That's it for today! I will write tomorrow about our two FAVORITE port stops!! Grand Cayman and Cozumel!! :)
