The MV Explorer

When I left the Bahamas I spent three days at sea. Majority of the time was spent either at meetings or lying in the sun by our pool. The ship is quite luxurious. We have cabin stewards who clean our rooms everyday. We have waiters who clear our plates and bring us drinks at meals. Gym facilities, a spa (which i probably won't waste my money on however wonderful it seems), a hospital sorta. We've got it. I've had two classes so far. Global studies is everyday and I'm not really liking it because the whole ship has it at once and they can't accomodate everyone in one room so we scatter around the classrooms and watch our lecture on the television. I am interested in what we are learning because it is focused on the places we're going. Intro to world music is going to be great.... for me. A lot of students are taking the class just because they thought it'd be fun and easy. I'm the only music major. People are bummin because it's going to be a lot of work. Other than that I love my roommate and everyone on the ship is wonderful. I'm having the time of my life. I'm trying not to let the homesickness get to me but i do miss you all a lot. Speaking of sickness. Day one at sea was not fun. I felt pretty sick but i got used to it. We all had sea legs and thought that puerto rico was moving under our feet. I'll write as soon as I get a chance!

Love,
Kim
