So here I am.
I got back from my cruise on Sunday and kind of slept all the way through Monday and half of Tuesday LOL
You know, before I left I thought cruises were all about relax and sleeping and sun bathing and swimming in the pool.
I couldn't be more wrong. I mean, sure you can do anything but relax and all that, but truth is it can be boring on the long run.
We actually stayed aboard only on Monday, when the ship was in Naples, but after that, we went ashore on exursion every day in a different city, and almost every excursion we chose was in the morning, so no sleeping through the morning for us. On the contrary!
Wednesday morning, when we were visiting Tunis we actually had the meeting point at 7:30 a.m. LOL yeah, I know.
It was so much fun though. I have to say I always had my doubts about cruises, you know, thinking about staying on the ship the whole time, but I'm glad I've been proved wrong.
I've been in 5 different cities - Palermo, Tunis, Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona and Marseille (Em I SO thought of you while I was there!!) - and 4 different countries - Italy, Tunisia, Spain and France.
Fascinating countries, all of them, but if I have to pick one as my fave I'm gonna say Spain. People are so NICE! It's warm but not too hot, Barcelona is so FULL of history and art and last but not least, you can go shopping without getting grumpy about how much money you spent, because it's cheap. I can't say the same for France, though. Damn they're expensive!
So yeah, I'm definitely planning on going back to Spain as soon as I can and take the right amount of time to visit the city properly.
I made like TONS of pictures but I'll be posting just a bunch of them, because they're really a lot and because I'm lazy :D
AND, since photobucket apparently HATES me, I'm uploading them on couple of facebook album
. And I actually had to use two albums cause I uploaded something like 120 pics. Considering I took over 700, that's almost 1/3 of the total LOL
You can find the pics
here and
here.
I'm sorry probably just the ones who are friends with me on Facebook will be able to see them for now. As soon as Photobucket gets collaborative again I'll upload some there too and edit this post with pics. You can now see the pics HERE, in my holyday picspam, as you probably have already noticed on your own LOL
Let me know what you think!
As for my getting-back-to-reality process..I'm starting this new little job on Monday. well actually I'm going to meet my 'boss' tomorrow afternoon with the girl I'm going to be the sostitute of. Nothing too exciting, really.. I'll be sort of babysitting a couple of kids, take them after school, make them lunch and take them to the sports centre in the afternoon.
Nothing exciting, as I said. But it's still work, they pay me (quite well actually) and I can be out of the house for 3 afternoons a week, which is SO good giving my mom's grumpiness lately.
