Yesterday we got an early walk off ticket since we can carry our luggage off the ship. So this morning we got up at 7a, got our last breakfast buffet and walked off the ship by 8:10a. It was so easy. The Carnival Cruise we took last year was a mess. We all walked off in a long line with music blasting at 8a with the crew all smiles and waving. A mess. Walked to the parking lot and got the car. Then we took the drive down the 5. We stopped to eat at Andersen’s split pea restaurant. Had a great tuna salad. While talking to our waitress she mentioned how the 101 is a prettier drive. Then DD thought of the restaurant off the 101 that has the best spaghetti we both have ever had. So we crossed over the mountains to the 101 and went north a little to get to Cambria. There in Cambria was Lombardis. Got the spaghetti with meat sauce and meatballs. (Has to be meat sauce. I did just marinara once and it was not the same.) So it was delivered to our table and wow. Still the best we have ever had.
Then down the 101 until LA and then to DD’s house at midnight. We are so tired. What is funny is all day we had not felt it until we were brushing our teeth now and getting ready for bed. We felt like we were still rocking on the ship. Since our cabin was near the front and lower to the sea we felt the ship rock more in our room then the rest of the ship. So getting ready for bed triggered it feeling. It is really funny. Ok. So tired. Night.
