Cruisin'

"I think you travel to search and you come back home to find yourself there."

-Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

This has been an AMAZING summer so far! I've already had so much fun going to local events in the DC area and I just got back from an awesome vacation! My mom says "you're always on the road!" Well this time I was flying in the air and cruising the ocean. I turned off my phone and took a break from the world while on a cruise for 5 days. The cruise stopped in Jamaica and the Grand Cayman Islands. The views at each place were breathtaking and the water was the perfect shade of blue. There's nothing like eating and drinking 24 hours a day while bonding with close friends on a huge ship. Jamaica was irie! I met some of the friendliest people in the world while in Grand Cayman, played with baby turtles and ate plenty of rum cake. When I returned to the Port of Miami, I escaped to the West Coast to LA and San Diego. I also crossed the border into Tijuana for a few hours. So it was definitely a fun filled week of adventures. Now it's back to reality *sigh.* I'm sure i'll be back on the road again soon, but as much I love to see new places, I still like coming home to my friends and family, and my big fluffy bed.
