Just a quick update...

Hello from The Bahamas!

It's absolutely beautiful here right now and I should probably be outside enjoying the weather but I just wanted to let everyone know that I got here safe and sound yesterday afternoon. It's been a whirlwind the past 24 hours but it's been a great time. I've met some really awesome people and it's hysterical hearing "hey, I know you from Facebook!". I'm surprised how many faces I'm able to put to a name...or is it the other way around? Either way...I know a lot of people so far. It's starting to sink in now that this is actually real and that I'm actually boarding the m/v Explorer tomorrow afternoon. Stay tuned to get more updates as the days and weeks pass bye...this will be one heck of a ride. I miss you all! See you in 110 days :)

Hi Amanda -

Spoke to Aunt Debbie, she said she is not getting any of your postings. Her e-mail is Debraagiordano@yahoo.com. Hope you boarding process was painless.

Look foward to hearing from you in the days ahead.


Love,

Mama

Mom says you are doing well - glad to hear it -never had any doubts other wise!

If you can - try sending your mom a "tiny" [such as' Hi Mom I am safe and well] email maybe when you leave the ship and when you come back - you know us moms - we worry ! and a simple quick email does wonders for us! HAVE FUN & STUDY HARD!

All my love-
Aunt Trishy
P.S. - still can't get any email to the semester at sea address..
