Jared and I had a fabulous time on a cruise of the Pacific Northwest. We sailed out on Sunday, May 31st on the Mariner of the Sea and returned the following Sunday, June 7th. The ship was amazing. If you utilized all the activities available there was no way you could suffer from boredom. There was an ice skate rink, climbing wall, mini golf, in line skating rink, basketball court, dodge ball tournaments, ping pong tables, shuffle board, movie theater, a fitness center, 3 swimming pools and too many hot tubs for me to count. They offered all kinds of entertainment such as comedians, singing and dancing groups, an ice skating show, which was my favorite. They also offered dance lessons, how to lose belly fat, whiten your teeth, how to put your make up on right and others. They also had all kinds of gambling within the built in casino and also without. The food was fabulous and overwhelming, we ate way too much. We had a fun time at the ports which included San Francisco, Victoria BC and Seattle. We really enjoyed ourselves and plan to go on another cruise in the future. We are happy to be home to our beautiful kids seven days was a long time to be away from the little ones we love so much.
