The following is what Raigan sent her friends describing her week on a Carnival Cruise from Galveston, Texas to the Bahama’s and back.

Hey everyone!  As most of you know I've been on a cruise, and a lot of you want to know how is was.  So here it is, I hate to write long email but you cant get everything in one little paragraph. I kind of took some of the stuff out of my journal. Try not to get bored.

Day 1:  Wow, the ship is huge!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Oh my gosh I've never seen anything sooo big.  Then I was scared to get on it.  Then we got to see our room, It was kind of small but we weren't going to spend much time in our room anyways.  Then there was dinner, I don't deserve food this fancy.  I had and official table, water and room. I had starters, main courses and desert. 

Day 2: Wow I make it through the day without having to escape the ship.  We went swimming, it was really cold!  There was also a water slide, but it was slow I kept getting stuck.  I went on a unsupervised scavenger hunt through camp carnival.  I met to girl Clair and Cheyenne.  There was another scavenger later and the same girls were there and two more girls another Clair and Emily.  Tonight was elegant night and we had to dress fancy. I even had lobster!

Day 3: Its Saint Patricks day aka Saint Griff day. We were at Key West, Florida today.  I went to 3 big places. Key West Light house, Earnest Hemingway's house, and the southern most place in the US.  I had to climb 88 stairs 2 at the light house. But it was worth it I could see the whole island.  Earnest Hemmingway's house was soooo fun.  There was great stories and a bunch of 6 toed cats.  And the southern most place in the US is the farthest place in the US. 

Day 4: Man, my allergies have really been acting up.  Today we were in the Bahamas.  You imagine the bahamas as some beautiful place, right this place was more of and industrial place.  So we took a taxi to the beach, who thought building sand castles could be sooo fun!?  Then it started raining and we had to go back to the boat.  We saw a magic show, I don't know how she did some of the things, it was really cool.

Day 5:  I cant go 1 second without coughing!  Today we went to Nassaua, bahamas.  We took a bus to Paradise island, a big hotel with everything there that has to do with water.  First we went to the water park, did the lazy river, slides and more.  FYI-this place is sooooooo much bigger than the great wolf.  Next we did the dolphin encounter.  We got to feed, hug, kiss, and make the dolphins do stuff.  After that was over we walked around the place and went to the aquarium.  Once the boat took off I got sea sick, but I didn't throw up just had a really big head ache and was dizzy, but I got better.  Then we went to see a comedian he was really funny. 

Day 6: No stops today.  This morning I had a dance class with a professional dancer.  Right after that we did another scavenger hunt, and we won!  Someone got hurt and they had to get the cost guard out to get him!  Then we went to the pool I got in the pool this time.  Then there was a secronized water contest.  The boys won and they did a really good job.  Again it was elegant night but I didn't dress up as much as the first night.  Tomorrow last day nooooooo!

Day 7:  Today is the last day!  The first thing we did was play put put. FYI- kerrigan is a cheater!  Then I did another scavenger hunt and the same girls were there.  Then I went to the pool again.  I met this little girl named reagan and she was about 6, she was soooooooo cute.  Her bday was Oct 29 and mine is Spt 29. The we went to eat and got pic with everyone.  Last we went to a show where people pretended to be famous singers and sing there song. 

hope this isnt too much info
