> I have been on numerous cruises. The room with the balcony was only 260 more. Plus we are up higher on the boat. Its all around a better room/location. I was always like we should just take the inner room but looking at the pics, I feel like I would get claustrophobic. for the extra 260, fuck it, I can atleast say we had one.

sweet sweet. good thing your not behind that, i loved laughing at those people for paying the extra and not getting shit for it but a view of a life boat. lol

key west snorkeling is amazing if you go to the right people. they take you to like 3 different coral reefs

last time i went snorkeling i ended up seeing an eal and a nurse shark and of course the amazing coral reefs themselves!

also another great place to see a ship wreck and other neat objects grand cayman was another great snorkeling experience

It was fun since I only went out for about a half hour. I am just glad I did not destroy any of the coral, I hear it takes like 50 years to “maybe” grow back

This year is huuuggeeee for me as far as travel, which is nice because I haven’t been anywhere special since I was 18ish.

In mid July I leave for Berlin and Warsaw for two weeks which is kind of my last big family vacation before the hens are out of the mamma birds life. Its more intended to visit family that I will probably never see and my mom is paying for it because she feels it really important, so thats gonna be an ok time for my first trip to Europe.

But the real fun starts two weeks after I get back from that trip when I depart for my study abroad program in Budapest Hungary. Im not too excited about Budapest itself (although im hearing amazing things) but more so the travel my friend and I will be doing every week. Were getting the Euro Pass and school weeks are only 4 days long there, so we will have a good 4 days to travel all over Europe every weekend. I already have a spot booked in a tent for OCTOBERFEST in Germany. We will be visiting London, Madrid, Paris, Rome, Venice and all the other big touristy areas plus many more are on the agenda (more scenic areas).

The cost is going to rape me in the buttocks but you’re so right Micah, travel is huuuggeee, especially when you’re young and single.

found in an article.

**[B]Most massive boulder corals are the slowest growing species, adding only between 1/4 to 7/8 inch (5 to 25 millimeters) per year to their length. Branching and Staghorn corals may grow much faster, adding as much as 8 inches (20 centimeters) to their branches each year.**

 

[/B] for those who like snorkeling, or thinking about it. usually they have rum and punch on the boat ride out and in. lol get drunk and jump in the water with a life jacket, and see how much fun you have then looking at fish and the coral! lol
