Woo!!!  Joe’s going on a cruise!

It would seem that my studio is sending the whole staff to on a cruise to the Caribbean in June.  How much does that rock?  Oh… I think it rocks  a whole lot.  But see, I’ve never gone on a trip like this… ever.  I’ve pretty much never been anywhere.  So traveling is kind of scary.  Oh sure, I’ll be taking a vacation in a few weeks where me and the family will be taking a flight to Nova Scotia… our first flight… which is a bit scary.  I’ve never been quite so far away from home as I will be on this trip.  I’ve never been on a boat… well, I’ve gone fishing but that’s pretty much it.  So this is new thing for me.  I know I’ll have fun but I can’t help be a bit nervous.

I’m thinking I’ll take my laptop so I can message my family when I’m on the trip… but then I thought I’ll have to chain it to my wrist when ever I leave my cabin.  Same with a DS.  So maybe I won’t take anything but the essentials.  Man, this thing is hard to plan for, but I don’t want to stress myself out.  I just want to have fun.  It’s all paid for.  Flight, food, cruise… everything!  Except for things on the islands we’ll be visiting.  That I have to pay for myself, which is expected.

So I don’t know… should I just leave my fancy electronic stuffs at home or should I not worry and bring them.
