This might be why...

I've never met another Carolyn under the age of 60.  Sigh.

Bermudapalooza.

Are you ready for this?

My WAY overdue, much anticipated cruise post?

I should rephrase.

The cruise (itself, not the blog post) was highly anticipated.  It has been a thing in the making since, oh, this time last year.  

After my wonderful father-in-law turned 59 last summer, he uttered something along the lines of "I turn 60 next year.  Probly* I might die soon."  Said in his charming and sometimes undecipherable Indonesian accent.

So.  To celebrate his impending doom (turning 60, not death... he's not going anywhere), we put together a large family/friend cruise to Bermuda.  And can I tell you?  Picking a date and destination and coordinating with 23 people is not fun.

But it all worked out and for 7 days over the 4th of July, the Purnomo/Yodis/Plue/and friends clan headed south to board the Celebrity Summit to Bermuda.  

And since I spent the majority of the cruise intoxicated, I'll let the pictures tell the story.

In collage form.

Because I'm lazy. 

Day 1.  My creative sister-in-law had matching shirts made for the occasion.  Clever Yono-isms were listed on the back.  These shirts were great and attracted tons of attention.  And we all know I like attention.

Random pics of our antics on the ship.  

 Shots from Bermuda.  

Amazing historic architecture.  Horseshoe Bay Beach.  Rum Swizzles at the infamous Swizzle Inn.  Elbow Beach.  Downtown Hamilton.  Gosling's Rum cruise.  Snorkel Park Beach.  "My" boat.  Nightlife on the island.

And because we all know how I love to take pictures of myself, I mean my outfits, here's a run-through of each night's dinner attire.

I love dresses.  And heels.  And the opportunity to dress up EVERY night.

So there you have it.  Seasickness aside (poor husband), we had a phenomenal time.  Traveling with such a large group was so much fun and I would love to do it again.  

Ever been to Bermuda?  We can't wait to go back.

*We all know I'm a grammar/spelling Nazi, right?  This error was obviously intentional.  Can't have you all thinking that I don't know how to spell ;)

Most boring update ever.

So.  It's been um, almost 4 months since I've posted.  Sad.

It was brought to my attention last night, though, that I removed my blog.

What?

After checking things out this morning, I discovered that Google had shut my account down due to "suspicious activity".  Truly sad that I haven't logged in SO long that I didn't even notice.

That being said, we're back up and running.  And seeing that we're approaching the slow time of year for my business, I'm gonna go out on a limb and tell you that the regular posting will resume shortly.

Are you laughing?  I am ;)
