Still in need of a travel partner if you are interested!
NCTE occurs immediately before our Thanksgiving break so I decided to hop on a cruise from Baltimore to the Bahamas for the week. That’s about as much planning went into it. I knew I was going to be in Baltimore so why not?
I’d been to the Bahamas before, but this was the longest cruise I’d taken at a full week. The blues were incredible, water and sky, and I napped on deck when I wasn’t reading on my Kindle.
Linked up with a friend from work in Nassau, won some trivia, and sat on the balcony staring at water. I used my notes to draft some thoughts as this doc student life is legit and I watched movies on deck.
Was sad to leave the Caribbean behind and return to Baltimore. Went from shorts weather to brick quickfast! Embarkation and disembarkation on cruise ships I think should be done differently. Kicked out of your rooms early just to clog up the halls and stairways before you can leave. I think you should be able to wait in your room. Yes, the next cruise would leave later, but you aren’t doing anything that first day anyway. I’d rather leave at 6 and have more time in my room on the last day then leave at 4, but have to lean against the wall for 90 minutes or sit on my suitcase.
Ah well. These aren’t real problems.
