One of the benefits of being single is...

I am sometimes invited to come along with my parents or my brothers on their family vacations. I love this and whenever I can, I happily accept. Case in point: a recent Alaskan cruise. I love the ocean – can’t get enough of it. I think Utah should have an ocean. Then it would be perfect. Anywho… this was my first cruise and I loved it.

This is me in my little hat by a waterfall near Mendenhall Glacier.
This is me and my mom in Sitka. We loved Sitka. This is me and my brother eating ice cream cones - we had one every day (sometimes more than one - and SOMETIMES more than one at a time).
This is me on my little bed in the cabin.
This is a sweet picture I took on a hike in Sitka. This is the gym and the spectacular view I enjoyed while working out...I even saw two orca jump all the way out of the water while I was on the eliptical machine one morning. This is me with my dad, mom, brother and sister-in-law in Ketchikan. This is in Glacier Bay. And, this is at the Butchart Gardens in Victoria. Canada was our last stop and we loved it. Alaska was amazing and I had a wonderful time being with some of my family and relaxing (didn't turn my cell phone on once). For those of my family thinking about your next vacation... the single girl wants to go to Hawaii, Europe, and Africa next. heehee
