Cruising

Here are a few more great pictures that Chris got on his phone

All those vans are the press- it was pretty funny to see them all gathering on the pier as we were pulled in. We were driving on the bus on the way to our hotel and there were several cameras filming us as we passed by
Here you can see all the press again- its funny if you can see on the balconies of the hotel on the far left there are cameras- you can see the lights from their lighting
The group of people standing in the blue were just a few members of the Coast Guard that came to our aid. It was really cool as we pulled in everyone was clapping and cheering for them.


Our escort into the pier. We had constant surveillance from the Coast Guard. Wednesday evening we started getting close to land in Mexico and out of no where a little fishing boat was heading right for us. We were all laughing watching it coming full speed towards us then all the sudden a black hawk swoops in right above the boat and leads them away from us. It was so incredible to think that all these people were watching out for us.

Another view of the Tugs

Wow this video turned out REALLY small- but you can see all the action that was going on around us from the moment they arrived on Tuesday till we got into San Diego Thursday

lanie, i cannot believe you were actually on that cruise ship! I remember seeing it on the news, and thinking to myself how miserable it must be! At least you are home, and at least you get another free cruise! I'm sorry you had to go through that, bummer!

Glad you are home and safe! All I can say is maybe you should warn the rest of the boat before you book your free cruise. The Egbert Cruise Curse is alive and well!!! I for one will stay on land...

That's nuts you were on that Cruise boat! Where are you going to go on your other cruise?! Sorry it was a bummer but glad you are safe and sound, even after the nasty sandwiches. :)

LOL wow, its crazy reading your notes from it. It reminds me of ours. When we pulled into port it was the middle of the night and we had our curtains open, were watching the news and the dock getting closer to us (the dock was just above and to the side of our room). Then I realized how dark it was outside, we had our room light on with curtains open & were in our underwear! There were cameras and news people all over the deck trying to get pictures. I don't think I've moved so fast to pull the curtains shut! This makes me want to look through our pics again.
