One more

To finish Aruba.   Hope I didn't already post.

We came to an area that had a bunch of shells washed up on shore.  They were everywhere.

 

 

 

Here is a pic of an area we walked on.  Probably wouldn't of been bad with shoes on.

 

Also learned that one should be careful when trying to get a close up pic of cactus. 

 

A look back to the path we were walking.....

 

Before we got back to the sand.

 

[Luckynana]

Wow!!!  That is quite a collection of huge shells!  

[Ozark_Kid]

Solo and I ate lunch at Izumi the first day.  When we got back on board at Aruba the whole gang went for Dinner.

We started off with some Pork Gyoza Dumpings....

 

And some Shrimp & Vegetable Tempura. 

 

Sharon doesn't do sushi so she likes the Beef Teriyaki. 

 

As you know I like trying something new so I tried a Seared Tuna Tataki Roll... I can now say I tried it.

 

We had a Champagne Lobster 🦞 in Yuzu wrap roll...

 

For dessert they tried Crispy Sesame Balls, which they all thought were gross, and Assorted Mochi ice cream which they liked....

 

I finally just played it safe.

I know!  I have never ever seen that many large ones.  There were a whole lot more than what is in the pics.

We didn't have a direct flight.  We flew from fll to Atlanta.   Had about a 3 hour layover and then flew from Atlanta to Memphis.   From Memphis we drove home. Takes about 2 hrs 15 minutes.  We just got home safely!  We should of had Kenzie come pick us up 

[perfect match]

Glad to hear that you’re safely home! Thank you for taking us along with you on your cruise. I enjoyed virtually along with you.

[mscinmia]

Glad to see you made it safely home.  Nice to meet you before you left the terminal.  Please ask for me the next time you are in T18, my home away from home!!

I don't think she's allowed to drive after dark...you need to be at least 3 years old for that. 😜

I enjoyed meeting you too and thanks for stopping by again.  I am curious,  how did you know it was me so quick,  was it the accent?  And to think I didn't call the Hawgs for you.  😂 I am surprised how people pick up on my accent.   Doesn't seem strong to me.  Y'all have a great day!

Thanks Greg.  We made it home safe.  Are you home yet? Looking back, will you drive or fly to Galveston?  I have a lot of threads to catch up on.  Many of us were doing Lives.

I still have the Samba Grill to post about and final thoughts.

I think 🤔 I found out why she didn't show up, ice cream.  Mom thought she bought her a kids size ice cream but it was a small.  Before she realized,  she had eaten it all.  😇

Got home last night at 10pm after a 12 hour drive. Good to be home so I can get back to the diet. Gained 12 pounds. That's double what I gained on Symphony with the UDP. I'm hoping a lot of it is liquid weight from various frozen drinks and cocktails.

[Ozark_Kid]

I still have more to share.  It will not be in order.

It was raining the morning of the last day but we quickly started avoiding the clouds. Carnival Horizon was trying to get out of the rain too so they kept moving closer to us.

 

 

I love pics of clouds.

Wanted to share that the internet is so good this week on the AllureI watched House of the Dragon on HBO at the gym on my phone.  

 

You had a great itinerary.  Love your pictures!!
