Ugh so I really have neglected you lately, apologies haha! but to be fair on me I had the monster crossing from the Carribbean all the way back across to England again :( saying goodbye to the gorgeous Carribbean was sad but hey ho least I got to go there and enjoy as much as I did!! Id never get to see the places Iv seen normaly.
The crossing consisted of 5 days at sea working from around 9am to around 11.30pm at night..after the first 5 days we had a short stop in Tenerife where I tried to get off an use wifi but I wasnt able to connect to the internet so I couldnt even speak to anyone at home, I just felt like a zombie who had no contact with the world :(
After the short few hours in Tenerife it was back to work for a further 3 sea days then we finaly hit Southampton. When we hit Southampton we had a huge delivery of stock which meant working in that port then we had to work the next day too because we didnt finish all the delivery in one go. The crossing had seemed fine to me at first but then it hit me all in one go at the end and I got somewhat depressed ha, I was missing my friends and family loads and I think I was just run down, tired and fed up!! meh I hate being like that its not what im normally like.
Finaly a whopping 12 days after we had origionally set sail from Carribbean I finaly had a port day in Southampton and I couldnt friggin wait to get off the ship!! ha I had my mum, her fiancee and my brother coming down to see me so I was mega excited!! I had the most loveliest day ever with them and honestly I have to say I just had enough and wanted to get in the car with my mum and come home...I didnt though im a stubborn mule so I wont quit anything ha.
After the day with my mum I was still a little down in the dumps, saying goodbye to people is so hard for me, I hate it!! We had a booze cruise onboard for the following 3 days which was actualy a laugh and differnt passengers to what we normally have, this cruise we have been to Barcelona which I love, its such a nice place to visit, great atmosphere and I love going round the market and the Ramblas :)
We docked in Monte Carlo which was veeery swarve!! all the snazzy speedboats everywhere...hmmm we went too Italy too but I just decided to get off and use wifi that day because I felt like id had no contact with anyone for weeks!! I hate not being able to just log on and use my internet whenever I likem I feel like im totaly neglecting people at home its awful :( I just don seem to get a mintue so im trying to take my laptop off with me every few ports so I can try and use the internet properly. I managed to skype with my mum yesterday which was lovely but my dad wasnt home boohoooo!!
Today we are in Corsaco (not sure how to spell that ha) but its my turn to stay onboard soooo im currently saty here enjoying a nutricious brekkie of M&Ms and wondering what the heck to do with my 'exciting' day ha. maybe i'll try and catch some rays up on deck and chill in the jacuzzi...and of course the wonderful task of doing some of my laundry!
sea day tomorow then Gibraltar so fingers crossed I dont get eaten alive by all the crazy monkeys there!!
Love Laura xXx
