The Big Ship
Here is the big ship that the the boys went on for their cruise to Mexico:
Here is the traveling party, just before boarding:
This was our view of the ship as we drove away. We were soon headed north, and they were soon headed south. (It was weird enough to drop them off there and leave them - it felt even more strange to start travelling in the opposite direction. Perhaps it would have felt a little more emotionally settling if we had just stayed there in Long Beach, at the point that they were going to return to.)
I'm confident that they're having a wonderful time.
Yes, I know that feeling. It's sort of like watching your daughter leave on a plane to Prague, and your son leave on a plane to Dallas, and then we get on a plane to Austin.
