At Sea - Day 2

Today was our first full day at sea, we are travelling from Barcelona to Naples.  I believe it is approximately 1200 km (although I may be wrong).  We spent the day at the gym and the pool, just relaxing.  Around 1PM the boat passed between St Tropez, France and Sardinia, Sicily, which was really cool.  The highlight of the day today was my parents "wedding."  The ceremony took place at 8PM at the Skylight Chapel.  We didn't think it was possible, but their wedding was smaller than ours!  SEVEN PEOPLE!!!  It was really nice.  They were both dressed to the nines, with my mom wearing a beatufiul ivory dress.  We (the five kids), got her a bouquet of white roses and a boutineer to match.  It was really sweet. They both wrote their own vows, which they had a hard time getting out.  It didn't last too long, but it was perfect and I know it was what they wanted, so we were happy.  After the ceremony, we headed to the champange bar, for a nice wedding toast (by Jeff) for the happy couple.  It was a nice day.

The festivities start tomorrow.  We are docking in Naples and plan to take a private car to Pompeii, Positano, Sorrento, and Capri.  We look forward to seeing Pompeii and showing my family around Positano, one of our favorite places in the world.

Till tomorrow....xoxo
