Having new adventures is like getting your license the first time. I’ve been wanting to try new things in my life and now’s my chance. I know that life’s a gamble, so I was prepared to take chances. When I think of the new adventures in my life, I thought that this is a way to challenge myself for new things. I don’t know about you, but new things are like getting your driver’s license the first time! Look how exciting that was? Just imagine new adventures.
The adventures were going to take me far away, in fact out of the United States! A cruise of all things! Now that’s something brand new to me. Remember I’m in my fifties and the only places that I’ve been out of Georgia were Alabama. So now’s my chance to see the other parts of the world! Jamaica was the spot and it was worth it! Before I jump into the trip, let me tell you about the cruise. Now at first I was nervous when they told me about motion sickness, but that never happened. The food on the ship was great, along with the entertainment. There’s clubs that you can go to, games to play, stores to shop, even a casino, so you can win or lose. I don’t believe I even slept having so much fun. It’s not rough and it doesn’t row you back and forth. You can hardly feel that you’re moving.
Day four of our cruise is when we got to Jamaica. Now that’s a place you have to see to believe. The people are so friendly and supportive to visitors. The stores are laid out like the towns were here in the 60’s and 70’s. The prices were great also. I got four shirts for $5.00, now that’s a bargain anywhere. The one thing you have to be in is good shape because you have to hurry when crossing the streets because of no red lights, but it was a blast. The seven hours in there was one of the best experiences in my life! If you ever go to Jamaica, you’ll never forget it.
Unfortunately, the time came to leave and get back on the cruise. Like I said, you’ve got a lot to do on the cruise. For example, I went to a show attributing the Beatles, and it was a blast! Of course they had a great rock-n-roll band, great for dancing and bringing back some memories. I remember just laying down on the top deck and having the time of my life when the band had a bash on the top deck. That was just the beginning of the party. I’m telling you that I didn’t want the cruise to end. You need to take one and you’ll never forget it.
We finally dock in Florida and got on the plane back. The flight was incredible. You really cannot tell when you’re in the air. The real secret is that you need to chew some gum because of the altitude, your ears won’t pop. But all in all you don’t even know when you land or leave the ground. The crew is so friendly that you can’t wait for another flight. Get on board and catch a flight and you’ll find out that it’ll lift your spirits.
