islands

As I type this my Greg is taking the next step to big boydom. The GMAT. When he's done, I'm taking him to lunch and then it's off the Layton to turn in his application for business school. The big boy business school. The one where they give you an MBA. If you're good. If you're not good I think you get a lollipop. I recently bought a five-pound bag of lollipops so Greg wouldn't be tempted by the offer.

He's been studying his brains big for weeks and (pardon the cheese) I'm really proud of him. I know good and well he's not doing this just for him but rather for what it will do for us and our future (we would like it to be a good one).

This is where you come in. You see, Greg going to school full-time + working full-time will mean we won't get much "free" time together. So we've decided to go on a fun trip before the madness begins. We're thinking of a cruise since neither of us have been and everyone loves all-you-can-eat. I need input from anyone who has been on a cruise. Where should we go? Which cruise line should we go on? ETC.

Thank you in advance for your much appreciated input. (I work in Marketing, remember?)

ooh, how exciting! good for greg! and a cruise will be awesome! we loved the carribean: roatan, belize, cozumel and cancun. we did norwegian cruiselines freestyle, which means you can eat dinner whenever you want with whomever you want. it was also a non-smoking cruise which was awesome. or you might want to look into staying at an all-inclusive resort somewhere like cancun or cozumel. they are really cheap right now because of the swine flu scare (which isn't really scary anymore) all your food is taken care of (like a cruise) but no time is wasted on traveling between ports, you have all day every day to snorkel, jetski, parasail or whatever you want to do. can't wait to hear what you decide!

oh yes! that is a good idea. i am a little bummed that we would not be able to go with you. i'm sure i could have talked lee into one.:)

also, along with kate, a all-inclusive resort might be fun to look into. our friends in our ward went on one...it looked like a dream. http://taylorandlisa.blogspot.com/

either way...you can't go wrong!

Cruises are so much fun! We did the Florida Keys/Cozumel and had a great time. I recommend Carribean. We went on Royal Carribean Cruise Line and loved it. I've heard from a lot of people to not go on Carnival. I believe them.
