We're On Vacation!!!!

Well....its Saturday November 24th and we are officially on vacation. We left Albany yesterday at 7:30am and arrived in San Diego many many hours later. We are happy to report that Ethan was a perfect angel the entire way. He slept through most of the flights and when he was awake he simply smiled and played. We boarded our ship the Summit around 2:30pm Pacific time. This ship is amazing! It is very different than the other ships we have sailed on. For you Seinfeld fans the best way to describe it is Del Boca Vista. In other words Senior Citzen heaven! John and I have to admit though that its nice to have peace and quite aboard a cruise as oppossed to the usual cheesy hairy chest contests we've seen before!
Today was a day at sea and we certainly enjoyed it! After breakfast we attended an info session on our Mexican port of calls. In the afternoon we introduced Ethan to the world of wine tasting...it was great! This was our first of 3 formal nights aboard the ship. It was so much fun to see peoples reaction to Ethan all dressed up. Needless to say Ethan is quite the "celebrity" on this trip. Everyone knows him and looks forward to seeing him around each day.
Now its time to put our little one to bed! Cabo tomorrow where we will explore on our own and do some shopping. Forcast calls for abundant sunshine and 81degrees. Aaaaah vacaation!
Love and miss you all! We will post more tomorrow night and be sure to include some pictures!

Knew Ethan would be the star- after all he is the perfect child. HOpe you have pictures of him in his formal attire. Have a wonderful time, but can't wait until you'fe back. Just looking at the pictures isn't the same as holding him.
Love,
mom and dad( reyes)

Be careful in Cabo! I hear Sammy Hagar is there doing some strange Barbra Streisand homage song and dance show. If he approaches you, don't look him in the eye. Back away slowly while reciting the lyrics to any song on OU812.

Have fun!
