CARRIBEAN SHIP CRUISE

The following day Ken was woken up by Stacy on the phone, Where did you people go we are about to set sail later in the evening on the cruise ship to the Bahamas and we cannot see you.  Ken woke Tina up and told her to birth they had a glass of water and a glass of juice and Ken asked for some painkillers to cure their hangover when they went to wake up Jimmy and Lily they found that they had already checked out and had left a note for them to meet at the villa. The note read “hey love birds find us at the villa, don’t forget we have to set sail today in the afternoon”.

Ken rushed to their villa which was just in the neighborhood and Tina went directly to shower and change. Ken met with the twins who were already prepared to set sail they were happy to see their daddy and hugged him so passionately that they all rolled on the grass. That made Ken make a note that after the voyage he would set one day with his kids and take them out for the whole weekend to spend some time with them they were growing old almost two years and could notice things like their parent's absence now.

They boarded the cruise ship were taken to their deck and sailed exploring the island for every taste and style they enjoyed the calm sea and its subtropical charm during the overnight sail and were expecting more and its few days of sail to their destination. The island was home to enchanting turquoise blue-green water and delicious warm breezes. When on a sail you spend time admiring the ocean or the natural beauty of the islands and the calm sea you are sailing through when appreciating the seafood delicacies and listening to the music and entertainment offered on deck.

The first dinner was a buffet of seafood and tropical dishes and they enjoyed the live music performance they could sing and dance along with the band when their favorite song is played. They enjoyed the band at the top deck with a drink as they soaked up the view of the night sky full of shooting stars while the guitar player serenades them with soft music.

The elderly ladies and gentlemen the grannies and grandpas would go to the upper deck and lie on a hammock or seat at the hammock chairs to catch the sea breeze after a meal or a swim and enjoy the peace and tranquility on the serene deck. The senior gentlemen Mr. Parker and Mr. King decided to try their hands on the mini-golf and they got goofy by challenging others to giants billiards played using balls about the size of volleyballs. They also visited the sports square where they were engaged in pig-pig or wrapped themselves in a game of twister. The ladies went to the sauna and steam bath to enjoy detox and burn up some excess fat acquired during the buffet and their holiday season. The sauna and steam bath were beneficial for clearing congestion and improving circulation, relaxation, and lowering joint stiffness. The steam bath improves skin health by opening up pores and cleansing your skin. The ladies could also enjoy a movie on the outdoor decks either in the pool or at the loungers covered with warm blankets at night with popcorn or a drink. They were also served chocolate chip cookies and milk plus other bites during the show time or movie time. Enjoying their favorite drink while sitting lazily cruising on the sea was the greater fun.

The gentlemen had a lot on their plate they could flirt with adventure over water with adrenaline-filled watersports or go down under and discover the best dive sport. They also got their adrenaline pumping with surfing, skydiving, and sky ride which is a self-propelled recumbent bike-style ride that was suspended above the outdoor deck. Jimmy and Ken rode against one another since the sky rides tracks ran parallel to one another and the two buddies raced together

The water sports are family-friendly. They compromised of water works and a waterpark which had water slides, part aqua play park that was suitable for the whole family.  The water slides were both fast and fun and the splash was great fun for the babies accompanied this time by their daddies and granny King who felt young and full of life. The splash zone is great for kids with drenching water bucket sprinklers and waterjets which were ideal to cool off on a hot day.

The family on the last day had a special request for an intimate function where they ordered a barbeque of smoked sea fish, pork ribs, and a chicken tikka which was so juicy they had some music playing in the background a waiter to serve them their drinks of choice while they watched the magical sunset in the horizon reflected at the vast sea and brought up the tranquility of the sea and the beauty of nature. The sunset over the ocean was a beautiful sight and watching the sunset from the ship's railing gave you that feeling of you are on vacation and love is good and you should enjoy the moment since there is no rehearsal. The cruise ship in the middle of the ocean was one of the best vantage points for stargazing and Lily loved watching the shooting stars at the balcony of her room or on the top deck which gave her a moment of serenity. This was their last night before the ship docked and they took a plane to take them back home but the vacation was relaxing and rejuvenating and they were ready to face life afresh the couple was now married and the kids were ready to start schooling in preschool. The senior men were now stepping down in their leadership position for the young energetic men who were eager to lead.
