Day 15 &16 Homeward Bound 9 & 10 Jan

Our last day on board was at sea steaming ahead from Mexico back to Galveston. With nowhere to rush to we had a lazy start then headed to the pool. It was a blustery day, actually that is an understatement. At one stage I had to hold on to my long earrings because they were beating me to death. Finding a little corner out of the wind we sat and lounged for a couple of hours and then went for a last look at the wave rider, climbing wall and mini putt. 

Lunch was had at Johnny Rockets, mmmm cheese chilli fries and then back to our room to pack everything up. It has been great having a week without living out of suitcases. 

We went for dinner at Portafino again and once again enjoyed our meal. Then we headed off to watch the late night comedian Joby Saad, and sad he was. After about 30 minutes we realized he was a dud but were too scared to walk out because he was one of those guys that picks on the audience. He was in the middle of some boring skit where he had to pop behind the curtain for a second. We were up and off, and funny enough so were about 40 other people. That was the funniest part of the show!  Then in the elevator we were laughing about it and a guy said "have you just been to watch the comedian?"  "Yes" we answered. "Oh my god,"he said. "We went this afternoon and he was aww......" It sounded like he was going to say awesome but out came "awful". So he really was pretty stink. 

10 Jan

We both didn't sleep well and were up at 6:30 to get breakfast and disembark. The whole process was a lengthy couple of hours but efficient as they kept us moving and informed. 

We have arrived in Houston and are waiting for our flight. We have a wait of 7 hours. There is nothing here only Starbucks and a magazine shop.

Well thanks for joining us on our journey. Donations to our VISA card will be received with gratitude. 

It won't be long until we can put stuff in the rubbish and not the trash, go to the toilet and not the restroom, catch the lift and not the elevator, put our stuff in the boot and not the trunk, jump in our car and not our vehicle and and not have to put our hand in our pocket to tip every Tom, Dick and Harry. 

See yawl later.
