First Day (Post 1, Elaine's Version)

It was a good first day - everything went as planned and Steven arrived on time and "over budget"!! He's decided this was his first of very many solo flights. (To Roxane and Carlos: We just might have created a monster.)

Grandma had a very special present waiting for Steven - that must remain a secret until the end of his trip when he arrives home. Look out Troy and Ziggy.

My computer has never had so much high tech attention - Steven created this new blog (technical problems arose on the original) and is now working on my ipod - downloading music and somehow adding all the album cover images to the CD's already there. The more I give him to do the happier he is - hasn't stopped once since arrival!! He's a multi-tasker too - while working on the computer, he kept an eye on me while I packed and helped with wardrobe selection.

We'll be headed to the ship by 9 AM tomorrow - with video equipment, cameras and computers in tow. Steven's already concerned about how he'll pass three long hours on the road with nothing to do - but look out once we board. His challenge is to interview and get some footage of the Ship's Captain?! There's not doubt in my mind he'll be successful.

"Ipso Facto, I De-Planed" (Post 1, Steven's Version)

Hey everyone, it's Steven here with another blog entry in another blog.

This time, though, the the blog will cover my grandmother and my vacation on a cruise in the Bahamas. Also, we will do two versions of every post, so as to give you equal exposure to both our adventures.

My first adventure began today, when I flew to Florida and, began my travels. I flew alone, and had to wait until everyone was off the plane before I de-planed. Isaw and Grandma, we ran some errands, and we arrived at her house, where I saw my Uncle Jimmy and rested.

We then had some pizza, and now I'm here, jump-starting the blog.

See ya.
