What a trip we had on the first
annual ‘Cruise with Kristi’! I was beyond thrilled, and honored, to have over 80 Winter, Converted, and Native Texans join us! It was a fantastic adventure--TWO busloads of folks, all eager to have a good time. But we didn’t have a good time. We had a GREAT time! I have to say, I am a big fan of group travel, especially when you’re with people who understand that it’s everyone’s vacation. There were no rules, and no one had to do anything he or she didn’t want to do. Want to sit by the pool all day? No problem. Want to read a book on the balcony all day? No problem. There’s also comfort in knowing you are not alone while traveling. While we did our own thing most of the time, it was fun to see familiar faces while on the ship and in Honduras, Belize, and Cozumel. I look forward to seeing those faces again very soon! I’m not sure when or where our next adventure will take us, but I do know there will be another one. I invite you to join us, so stay tuned for more details! Something tells me we’ll have three or more buses for the next one! •
