Summertime, Summertime Sadness

I am just getting so clever with the song lyrics as my blog post names.
I just showered and am getting ready for bed. It is almost midnight and
my last day on board the MV Explorer is over. Our room is empty besides
out carry ons and there is nothing left to do.

Today we had some programs. At 1 there was a presentation by the on
board psychologist on re-entry and what to expect coming home. At 8 we
had our last pre-port. We had one before every country. They tell us
about the culture, what to see, what to do, and some safety stuff.
Tonight's was the same. It was actually really funny. Dean David did his
cultural pre-port as usual, but on America. He told us all about this
new culture and country we were about to see like he would with the
others. It was all a joke this time obviously. We got our info about
debarkation tomorrow and our deans said their last words.

After JoEllen, Becca, Adam, and I went to late night snack which was
packed. We played Heads Up again and made fools of our selves in public
(again). Then the three of us girls went back to our cabin and had a
late night dance party. We caught a lot on video. Apparently we were
heard a few cabins down as well. Oops. So as I said it is almost
midnight and I am exhausted.

Tomorrow is a long day. We are up at 7 to be at breakfast a half hour
later. We all have to go through face to face immigration with officers
who come on board and then we can get our passports back. Our cabins
have to be empty by 9. Once everyone has gotten their passport and all
the bags are off so are we. Then it's the shuttle ride to the airport
and waiting all day until our 8:30pm flight.
