Well the Bahamas was awesome! Just want to start of saying thank you Mom and Dad!

Day one- With the ship disembarking everyone went up to the top to wave to the very tiny crowd that was still around. You could feel the excitement on the ship, it was like the first day of freshman year times ten. There are 66% girls on this ship and a total amount of 702 students. There is a total of around 1,000 passengers on the ship ranging from 7 months to 61 years old There are kids from over 270 colleges aboard this ship and University of Colorado has the most by far with around 70-90 kids. I have met some interesting people so far and hung out at the pool all day and played some funny card game which I forget the name. So far there have been a lot of meaningless meetings going on and everyone going out to meet more friends. Boston is well represented on this ship and San Diego is also. Our port whole in out room is huge. Eating is like being at a buffet restaurant; they take your plates for you. They make your bed in the morning, and clean the bathroom.

Day two- I got woke up by the voice over the intercom because we had a meeting, (another meaningless one) then finished unpacking, then had lunch, took a nap, went to the first Global Study class meeting and I guess we were not suppose to show up in a bathing suit and a tank top, and we were suppose to have a notebook and a pen; After we went out to the aft deck and relaxed until sunset, then had dinner. The excitement in the atmosphere is becoming more controlled and the first day of classes are tomorrow, and sometime tonight I will have to find out when and where mine are. We got one day of class followed by 3 days in Puerto Rico for our first vacation. We have not had any “pub nights” yet; So, I expect a lot of partying from everyone on this trip into Puerto Rico, because what else is there to do here.

Day 3- Classes have started and they seem to be fun, but I still got two more I have not been too. My classes got over at 12 today and do not have any for 4 more days. After class I just went to the pool all day and it was another 80+ degree day. Tomorrow we are going to Puerto Rico for three days; there should be some good stories leaving that place because there is not much to do but drink. We had three sunsets so far all have been covered with some clouds, but the sun was HUGE today at sunset.

This took a half hour to load, so when I get some good stories I will post them again, sorry these ones are not to good, but ship life is awseome..That Christopher Columbus guy was on to something
