My NeeNee’s 60th Birthday Cruise
By Parker Olenick
I was almost 4 years old when we went on my NeeNee’s 60th Birthday Cruise. We packed our clothes and stuff and went on a Cruise Ship. My cousin, Kanan, my parents, my grandparents and all of my family went. We went to Mexico.
We stopped at Acapulco and saw some cliff divers. It must hurt when they hit the water that hard because they were belly flopping. They dove off of huge cliffs. My Grandpa took a really cool picture of them diving.
We also went to Ixtapa and Zihuatanejo. While we were there we rented a catamaran and sailed around the bay and surfed it on some little waves. The water was very clear, blue and also really warm.
We celebrated my NeeNee’s Birthday in a special, fancy restaurant on the Cruise Ship. The adults had lobster that looked really good and I had macaroni and cheese with lobster. We wore party hats and had cake for desert.
There was a miniature golf course on the top of the Cruise Ship.We had so much fun playing. I got rug burns on my knees from crawling to get the ball. We also played in the pool. I liked the slides. We entered a bean bag toss championship and I won a medal.
The trip ended in San Diego so we just got in a taxi and went home.
