Philly, NYC, Caribbean!



It was glorious! :)

I spent the first week in Philly and NYC with my (now married) cousin getting ready for her wedding. Her wedding was so fun. Can't remember the last time I partied like that - and in front of my parents. I have to admit, there were some super embarrassing moments because my dad happens to be one of the stereotypical - loud, obnoxious, drunk who likes to be the center of attention. This is not to say that I dislike him - its just ... many moments was I sitting there at family dinners or extended family dinners with my cousin's fiance's family and extended family just cowering under my fingers with my head looking down and head shaking ... sigh ~

After wards, my sisters and I went on a cruise to the Caribbean for 5 lovely days amidst hurricane Anna and Sam. It was nice and relaxing when we weren't out snorkeling in the 3rd largest barrier reef tasting one of the saltiest waters, or jumping into ice cold cavern waters seeing animal bones at the bottom or holding baby alligators at the everglades in Miami!!

I am now recouping and getting ready for trip number two: Europe starting 9/3/09!

Can't wait!

Cheers! :)
