Lost at sea

Well, not quite. First, I'm leaving to Boston, Massachusetts, a 10 hour drive (which will likely suck). There, we're staying with family friends for a night before proceeding onto the cruise ship. The company is Norwegian, aptly named the "Norwegian Cruise Line". The ship, called the "Norwegian Spirit" (I guess they want to make sure we don't forget that it's from Norway), looks really, really sick. From there, it's one and a half days on the high seas to Bermuda, and, barring a mysterious sinking, we'll be there for three days.

Ah, Bermuda.

 Britain's oldest colony (first settled in the 1600s), it's one of the few carribean nations not to have declared independance from the UK. As of now, it's a British overseas territory, still governed by the British parliament. However, that doesn't mean that it's not totally cool, since British colonies are usually fancy.

The only unexciting prospect of this is that we're going with our family friends, and THEIR family friends, and THEIR family friends. Every meal time we're going to be eating with 10 other people.Ugh.

Also, did I mention it's a 10 hour drive to Boston? UGH.
