I have never made a blog before......I just wanted to say hello to everyone out there and tell you that the weather in hawaii is magnificent. The cruise ship life is getting better every day and friends come and go faster than you could ever imagine. Five month contracts seem like so long when you first get there but after the first few months time starts to fly. the beaches here are beautiful. i work 3 am to noon seven days a week so i get all afternoon to sit around on the beach or in a kayak, or even go snorkeling. Life is Great!!!! I even got to go to a Bob Marley tribute concert!!! I got to climb this amazing tree!
