Prayers Please

Will you please keep my sister in your prayers? She is in the hospital in Ohio. Her husband called this evening saying she is dehydrated and they’ve done some tests and her pancreas is swollen and inflamed. And they also found a kidney stone with the MRI. She is still trying to throw up he said and they have her on drip and they are giving her antibiotics in the drip. We just got back from off the cruise together and she went with her husband on his 18 wheeler to take his load to Detroit.  I know she is sooooo exhausted from our trip and then the trip to Ohio, and now sick to boot. Also they went to Hammond, La. on Friday, so I bet she is physically worn out. So will up please keep her in your prayers? My brother in law is going to call me in the morning to let me know how she is and what the other Dr. thinks about her pancreas, and what the problem is there.

Progreso and Cozumel Mexico

Didn’t get many pics in Progreso. I think I have one of the ship docked and this one below. I used my video camera mostly here.

This next pic is the area the ship was docked at Cozumel. I don’t think I got a pic of it before we got off the boat. This was after we were leaving. I had my camcorder when we got there.

This place was simply gorgeous! I sure hope I can go back one day! Next trip I want to go to the beach. I bet that is what is awesome! We shopped on this trip and really didn’t have enough time left to go to the beach. You have to be back on board when they say so you don’t get left. lol

The tents set up in the distance is where they give massages right there on the beach.

More on the ship Carnival………

I just had to get some pix of this place. I knew DH and Cindy (our daughter) would love all of this.

Sorry but some of them are blurred due to the movement of the boat.

This is the bar, not a real grand piano. This was close to the Celebration dining area we dined at one night.

Cruising

P8220005

Heading out on Sat. evening.

Sun going down Sat. evening. Took this through the window of the ship.

 

P8230015

This is inside the ship. Loads of marble on the edges of each deck and the staircase is all marble as well. There is a bar below with a grand piano to the right of the pic behind the bar. Someone was most always playing.

P8230017

Lots and lots of pix were taken on this staircase!

P8230018

This ceramic pic was on the floor at the top of the stairs. One was on each side of the doorway coming into the area with all the elevators.

P8230023

More floors and the glass elevators as well.

P8230024

Top part of the staircase.

This was where we dined one of the nights.

Check out this lil ole’ boat that pushed the huge one into position so it would be pointing in the way it needed to go. This was sooooo funny looking. The same boat did ours to but I will show all of that later on. This ship was sailing with us, ahead of us all the time and they docked side by side. We were on the Carnival Fantasy.

I will post more pix later. Hope you enjoy!
