This morning we had smooth sailing so to speak off the ship. We had a wonderful breakfast, waffles, eggies, hashbrowns and bacon, before heading out for our debarkation and customs check. It could have been a very interesting morning, as it was very early and we had nowhere to go really, but God blessed us with a taxi willing to negotiate with me and a hotel willing to let us play and enjoy our morning, despite having a room made up for us yet. We spent the majority of our day lounging out by the pool, enjoying food delivered poolside, a new friend named Alexander for Thomas, and lots of sunshine. I had been very worried we'd be sitting in some lobby all day waiting for a room that they didn't have to provide until official check in times, but instead our room was ready to go within 2 hours, all while we were playing and eating by the pool. I think we all ended up taking a nap outside, too. We shared a double room, but the Suites part of the hotel was actually just that, and our room was actually two rooms, which made it easier with 5 sets of luggage and multiple carry-ons. Despite the fact that we slept in an icebox that night, we had a fabulous time. Oh, and we were tired. Thomas crashed on the bed at 6:15 pm and I followed shortly. I think everyone was in bed by 7 pm that night. Is there a word bigger than exhaustion?
