Goodbye Disneyland/Hello Canada

Tweet

So to recap, I didn’t want to go to Jamaica, but I was fine with Disneyland. My sister floated a new idea that looks like it will stick, and now my dad said he and my stepmom will go too. My sister had been trying to get them to go on a family trip, and this one appealed to him. The cruise leaves from Boston, goes to Maine, then New Brunswick, then Prince Edward Island, and a stop in Nova Scotia. I’m very excited about it (this is for next fall). I’ve always wanted to go to Canada. Some people say how do you live in the United States, and have never been to Canada. Well, look at a map. Oklahoma, where I live, is far from Canada. Meanwhile, I’ve been to Mexico several times. You know my sister is especially excited about Prince Edward Island after reading Anne of Green Gables. I went on a cruise in my early 20s, but it was two ports in Mexico, and I wasn’t doing very well. I didn’t get to enjoy anything on the ship, and I think I missed a lot. This boat is a lot smaller so I’m not worried about getting crushed in a mass of people either. My sister and her family went on a cruise last month and they saw shows on the boat, took sushi rolling classes. I thought I was going to have to save every penny, but my dad said he wants me to be able to enjoy my time, so he’s covering the cost for me. I think he feels badly so much of my life has been ruled by sickness. Here’s a really great part: my roommate is Amyra (my 13 yr. Old niece). We’re all really excited about it!
