My Cruise to Paradise!!
Rhapsody of the Seas, November 21-28, 1998
For Thanksgiving, my parents, sister and I went on a cruise of the western Caribbean.
We all met on the boat in San Juan and departed for the high seas.
As you can see, we stopped at four different places and had many adventures (and yes, some people call bargaining an adventure!!). Just Joking. In true cruise form, we ate too much (thanks to our waiter, Paul, the King of the Chocolate Chip Cookies), got lots of sun and participated in some crazy activities.
Day 1 - San Juan, Puerto Rico - Arrival on the Ship 
Mom, Dad and Karen - Thrilled to be here! 
Day 2 - At Sea
