We have mixed emotions about this trip. We were so looking forward to being aboard the highly-touted, much-awarded, Crystal Cruise Line because it is all-inclusive - meaning ALL the food (including the food in their restaurants and cafes) and ALL the alcohol was included. Having racked up a fairly high bar bill on past cruises, Pon and I couldn't have been more excited...except Pon and I both got sick.
We have never been sick together at the same time and to such a degree. Pon was first hit with the stomach flu and I came down with what I thought was initially allergies, which blossomed into a cold that I generously gave to Pon.
On the defense, I think we set ourselves up to get sick. Prior to leaving on vacation, Pon was totally stressed out about work and I was also trying to get as much work done before we left. We didn't sleep well the week prior and then on the day we traveled we probably only managed about two hours of really bad sleep on the plane.
Being sick on this trip has a lot to do with the lackluster feelings we have about this vacation. Here's photos from our trip. Enjoy!
