The cruise was presented by Cruises Cruises Cruises, Scott Arend and Holland America

During this cruise I was doing a vacation Barbie Swap with a friend of mine Lori BC Chick, we sent each other dolls that we made to look like ourselfs and they were to go on vacation with us, Lori Doll and I had matching outfits for at least 75% of the trip.

We got the oppertunity to meet some really great collectors as well as others we have known only through chatting or email. From Babstalk there was Joyce Daniels, Linda in NM and Timi Jordison and from Pink Chat Katy Love. I really enjoyed spend alot of time with Katy a wonderful and lasting friendship has come from this cruise

November 3rd

shopping in San Juan

Terri having the time of her life at pidgin square, I had the great idea that I would run into the group of pidgins and Darion would take a picture of them all flying off, Well as I ran into the group all they did was walk out of my way. Boy did I have a good laugh over this one

Terri having a Pina colada at the location that first invented them.

Katy and I had a great time in San Juan, we found several fabric stores and boy did we get alot of fabric to make barbie clothes out of hehe, that night we stayed up 1/2 the night dividing what we had bought and deciding what to make with it, and of course there was a lot of giggeling hehehehehe
