I'm back and I already need another vacation.
My vacation was absolutely wonderful. The weather was so nice and warm. It was about 75- 80 almost everyday. I had a great time even if I went alone. I talked to quite a few people and they all seemed to think I was very brave for taking a vacation alone. I must admit I felt a twinge of envy watching all the couples walking hand and hand. I actually did meet some other people who did the solo trip. One peson I met was this nice guy from New York. I hung out with him a lot. I kissed him too, but didn't do anything else. It was strange we just seemed to have a lot in common, we were talking the last night, both kind of tipsy and we kissed. Anyway back to what I did. We docked in the Cayman Islanda and Jamiaca for two days. The Cayman Islands were nice. I went snorkeling there and after that walked around and had some lunch. It is quite expensive there as my lunch of fish and chips and a mixed drink cost me almost 30 bucks. I think I liked Jamica better. It wasn't scary at all like some people have said and no one asked me if I wanted to try pot- I must look to innocent. While in Jamica I climbed this huge water fall and saw a dolphin show. After I did quite a bit of shopping. It's really cool when you can bargain with how much you want to pay for something. The ship was also fun to hang out at. I usually stayed by the pool and tried to tan. I tried to not be in my room too much. My room was about the size of my cubical at work. It was so tiny, had no windows and had a teensy twin bed. At night I usually went to one of the shows they were having. Oh and I drank a lot- but I never really got drunk. I must have spend about $200 or so on alcohol, which is easy to do when mixed drinks are $7 and a beer is $4. So coming back to Boston and hitting 32 degree weather was a real treat. I really don't want to be here for another winter. I saw the boyfriend this weekend after a month. It was good to see him, we had a good time. Since my vacation and time away from him I'm not obsessing about our relationship as much. I think I'm learning that I should stop worrying about him and worry about myself and do what I want to do.
