she got 350 carp messages since 8 am so she's done

 

Comment by Illinibeam13 on June 6, 2011 at 9:27pm
I can't believe they are already in another port... with six more months I didn't expect another port to come so soon. My sailor isn't too impressed yet...but just wait I'm sure he will be. Spain is definitely on my list. At twenty years old I have been to china, nicaragua, cambodia, russia, singapore, japan, peru ...and london and paris are next summer (for thr olympics :) my man had barely ever been out of his state ..and never the country and never been on a plane till basic... so I'm so happy that he is getting to see other places andd other cultures... I hope it is teaching him some great life lessons like my traveling has taught me. We are such fortunate people as americans and I can't believe what other people live off of and are still so happy to be alive and with people they love and are so welcoming of me as an american. 7 months is long but its worth it if he isn't as small town as he used to be :)
