A Brief Vacation

Cruise Ship, Night, Port, Ship

I'll be taking a brief vacation from our vacation home in Miami.

We are joining friends for a week long cruise on the Celebrity Apex Cruise Ship. We are four couples all from the neighborhood back home in Pennsylvania originally. 


We raised our kids together and this is our 3rd year meeting on a cruise in mid December for reunion together ( 2 of the couples now live in Florida).

Where are we going? The Caribbean. We have three stops:
Tortuga Island- always wanted to go there but it is very difficult to get to unless you come in by boat.
St. Kitts- Been there before and it is a lovely island
Puerto Plata in Dominican Republic-

It'a only for a week. I left last Saturday, So I'll be home this Saturday Dec 21and will be back commenting on your blogs. 

Have a great week... 

I made this green bean dish yesterday. It's blanched green beans (which really keep their color) , tomatoes, nuts/seeds etc with a balsamic reduction dressing.  Green Beans (link to recipe and dressing)
