My Spring break.

Over spring break I went on a cruise to Cozumel, Mexico. I was so excited when my parents first told me that we were going on a cruise to Mexico. They told me in the middle of February and we only left in the April Seventeenth. It was Tuesday night and we had to drive all the way to Mobile Alabama. It was a 1500 mile trip which was a twenty something hour drive and it seemed to last forever. We finally got there at 11 o'clock Wednesday night and we stayed at a hotel for the night.

The next day we got on the boat at around 12 and it only left at four so me and my family relaxed for four hours when the sheep finally left. Everybody rushed to the edge of the ship to see Alabama shrink slowly into the distance. That night my parents went to go play some slot machines and try to win some money. I just wondered around exploring the boat and hanging out with my brother. At around 11 I went to bed. I was exhausted from the road trip.

When I woke up my dad walked into me and my brothers rooms and said get up its already nine. I quickly took a shower and got into some different clothes. We went and got some breakfast and laid out in the sun drinking strawberry dacaries with little umbrellas for about and hour until we got bored and decided to do something. We found ping pong and that kept us entertained for about and hour until we got bored again. We went and ate lunch then went to the hot tub and just chilled until this one lady came in. I forgot her name but she was a little messed up and she was 39 I think. When my dad told her that my brother was in the army she was very impressed and wouldn't stop talking to my brother. When we finally left to get away from her my brother avoided her for the rest of the trip. When ever he saw her he would find a different rout to get to where he was going. I ran into her a couple time and she always said " Say hi to your brother for me" and I said okay and walked away as fast as I could. Anyways I was really bored the first day at sea until later that day at eight o'clock. I met this one kid who was from Tennessee and he was also very bored so we started to hang out. At nine he took me to the one thing called circle C (This was for teenagers 12-14 where they played games and stuff). I had a lot of fun there and I made a lot of new friends. Two of them were from Mississippi one from Alabama and two from Tennessee. After that the trip seemed to fly by so quickly.

When we finally got to Cozumel we walked out of the boat and there were people who were hired to take pics with us. They were dressed in Aztec clothing and were very friendly. After that we went to go meet our guide to snorkeling and kiaking. His name was Ramon. He took us in a taxi to a beach were he took us kiaking first ( the kiaks were see through so we could see the fish under us). It was very exciting and we saw a lot of fish. Next was snorkeling, he took us out about 20-30 yards to this reef that was full with fish. He showed were most of the cool looking fish were and even a barracuda. We also saw three stingrays!!! When we were all done we went to go look at the shops. The sales people were very pushy and it was hard just to walk away because they kept on sucking you into buying there products. I bought two necklaces on bracelet and four souvenirs. Me and my friends all met back on the boat and played spoons and other games. I eventually went to bed at two o'clock am and woke up both of my brothers because one of them stole my room key and he paid the punishment for it.

The next day was another day at sea and me and my friends messed around the boat and tried to get away from this one kid that kept on stalking us, but in never worked and he followed for the whole day. Other than that it was probabaly the funnest day on the cruise I had the whole cruise. I played spoons but I did horrible and got knocked out of the game very quickly. That night was probably the last night we would all see each other so we gave each other our e-mail and phone numbers.

The next day was the day we got back to Mobile Alabama and we got there early, around 7:30 am. I saw one of my friends eating breakfast before I left and I said goodbye then i left to go get some breakfast. We got off at around nine and then said good bye to my sister because she lives in California and she took a plane to Mobile Alabama. After that we started our long trip back home. It seemed to go bye very quickly and I slept most of the time. Well this was my trip to Mexico and it was amazing!!!!

Today I am going to compare Airplanes and road trips.

Air planes!!-

Pros- A good thing about Airplanes is that they go much faster then sitting in a car all day and you also get free air plane food. If you are riding in a Jumbo Jet air plane you get to watch TV or movies the whole way to keep your self entertained. You also get to see all the wonderful sights from the air plane windows. For example you can look at the cities below or the nature of the mountains and trees.

Cons- There are also a lot of bad things about Airplanes. If you hit a lot of turbulence it will turn your peaceful ride into a bumpy uncomfortable ride. If you are flying over the ocean it can be very boring because you have nothing to look at besides the boring blue water. If you they don't have TVs and your flying over the ocean and there is turbulence you ride is very miserable. To get tickets to an air plane you have to pay a lot of money.

Road Trip!!-

Pros- When you go on a road trip it is a good time to catch up on home work or spend time with family without a whole plane full of people listening to your conversation. Instead of having to eat air plane food which is sometimes disgusting you can stop at good restaurants and relax. Many people like riding in cars more than planes because they think its more safe.

Cons- There are a lot of bad things about road trips for example the broadness. It is very hard to keep you self entertained while driving. Usually you have to pull out the portable DVD player and attempt to watch a movie while trying to ignore everybody else in the car that is talking. Another thing that is bad about road trips is the cost of gas that is constantly rising and making it harder for people to travel long distances.

Over all I prefer flying in plane because it is much faster and your not as bored as you would be sitting in a car for twenty four hours. Road trips are pretty fun, but only if you have a lot of friends to hang out with or something fun to entertain your self.

KITTY FRAME

I put a border around this kitty in photoshop. It is AMAZING!!!!!!!!

Philadelphia Eagles!!!

The Philadelphia Eagles are the greatest team in the world!!! Even though they didn't make it to the super bowl because they got beat by the stupid Cardinals. The Cardinals got to go to the super bowl, but its all good because they got beat by the Steelers!!!The Eagles are my favorite team because on the Madden football games I loved to be them. After that I started watching them play and I liked them so I decided to be a fan. These are the reasons I like the Philadelphia Eagles.
