Saturday

I love cruises as well, but part of the fun is a daily morning walk top deck to check out the ocean and anything on the horizon. I shoot for two miles before breakfast and doing the rounds on the ship throughout the day definitely totals to around seven miles on my phone by the end of the day. I don’t feel good if I overeat and don’t walk. My body needs to expel gas or I’m very cranky. But yup, cruises are for indulging and as long as I can feel good, I load my plate and wine glass to the brim.

PS - You did hear we threw Trump in jail while you were gone? Yup, all is well.
