Mexican Riviera Cruise with Royal Caribbean

May 18th - 25th we went on a cruise with Corey's family. With our group of 8 adults and 10 kids, we were a conspicuous gathering and caught the eyes of most passer-bys.

Corey at the airport, trying to keep the kids entertained and together in a group by reading them the tales of Mike Ramsdell in his book "A Train to Potevka" (great book I must say, a quick read and exciting, mostly about his experience as a spy in Russia when the Soviet Union collapsed. I bought it at Costco and Mike was there and signed it for us. He is married to one of my cousins, Bonnie)

At the beach in Cabo with the cruise ship in the background - Hyrum is up on Corey's shoulders. What's the matter with him?
He was afraid of a dog at the beach and climbed on us the whole time shouting "I wanna go home!!!" We gotta do something to break that fear. He gets absolutely hysterical around dogs.

Formal Dinner night - The kids got lots of compliments for good behavior
from everyone in the dining hall that had a table near us.

...then enjoying a lemonade the next day in Mazatlan.
The boy likes his drinks, nice and slow, through a straw. Gulp - Aaah!
