I learnt how to crochet a ball for Teddy from this Youtube Video via Crochet Geek. It wasn’t too round because I didn’t have stuffing so I used a plastic bag. It added a little extra noise for Teddy to enjoy.
Balls are the basis for a lot of Amigurumi projects so I hope to make him so cuter toys in the future.

Someone’s Spying On Me
I was trying to read over the weekend. However every time I retreat to the couch in the other room this happens:
Ruby Princess 2013: Day 7 & 8- Another Sea Day and Fort Lauderdale Mansions
Day 7
On the last 2 days, the boat was making its way back to our starting port in Fort Lauderdale. When we went to breakfast Saturday, there was a Chocolate station. Mom got mad at me for eating chocolate everything for breakfast:
Since it was our last day, I walked around the ship and took some more random photos including the jazz bar and a dessert cafe (which you didn’t have to pay additional for).
Mid-day the kitchen staff held a hilarious cooking show and then took us on a tour of one of the kitchens. It is so incredibly spotless!

Ruby Princess 2013: Day 6 – Grand Turks
We didn’t arrive at Grand Turks until later in the afternoon. We spent the morning at an outlet sale and another art auction. Since we had time we also went to the dining room for a fancy meal. I had calamari, gazpacho, lamb and a cherry trifle for dessert.
When we arrived at Grand Turks around 1. I totally get why people can spend a week here just relaxing.
This conch tells the weather.
My sister wanted to go shopping so her and mom stayed in the tourist area while me and dad went exploring. We took a 5 minute taxi to Governor’s Beach. It was far more quiet than the area by the boat docks. Though it was around 29 degrees on the island, it was the perfect temperature when you immersed yourself in water.
Ruby Princess 2013: Day 5- Saint Thomas & Saint John
We woke up very early on Day 5 too find ourselves at Saint Thomas, one of the US Virgin Islands.
My parents had already been here on a previous Caribbean cruise so we took a boat 30 minute boat ride to another island called Saint John. Here are some things I saw on the boat ride:
Alligator rock:
Somehow got this pretty straight photo despite a shakey ride:
At Saint John, we took an open safari (bus with no windows) tour to views that looked like true paradise. I’ve never seen water so beautifully coloured in my life.

Ruby Princess 2013: Day 4 – St. Maarten
The next morning we found ourselves docked at the island of St. Maartin (also spelled as Saint Martin).
This is all the people looking over at the island:
We took a 2 and a half hour scenic tour. Unfortunately, the bus had tinted windows so I couldn’t really take photos during the tour. Our guide took us through the entire island pointing out how on the island there was two of everything. This is because there were two sides of the island, a French and a Dutch. Luckily, there were some scenic tour stops.
Ruby Princess 2013: Day 2 & Day 3 – Princess Cays & A Sea Day
Day 2
The next morning me and dad woke up extra early to catch the sunrise. It was cloudy but the result was a sky of beautiful colours. Don’t these almost look like paintings?
Then we headed down to the Horizon Court and had breakfast. I enjoyed the eggs benedict among other things including American bacon. Canadian bacon is so much tastier.
Shortly after we disembarked onto smaller boats that took us to the Princess Cruises owned Princess Cays.

Ruby Princess 2013: Day 1 – Embarking
Last week I took an Eastern Caribbean cruise on the Ruby Princess. I took hundreds of breathtaking photos of the trip as well as journalized each day, so I will share my trip with you in a series of posts.
Photoset: Winter Exploration
It snowed last week and on Saturday the sky was so nice and blue that me and dad decided to go exploring for interesting things to shoot in Mississauga.
