This was our third trip on a houseboat. The past two times we had mainly stayed in large lakes, but we begged and begged and they agreed to do more backwater touring. We were thrilled. Things started off right with the largest boat yet (two stories y’all).
Such a supermodel right there. Look at that totally non-awkward hand placement. We were also served our usual starter beverage. Zee coconut. Never gets old.
And Vanessa and Yajaira broke in their new peacock fans (which resulted in endless rounds of “Let me see you peacock cock cock your peacock cock cock…”). Super fabulous.
After Vanessa was properly cooled, I got in on the action.
I also got to watch these two schmucks doing their usual thing:
Crazy ladies. Then it was photo time.
So awkward. Thankfully, I was able to help Janine drive the boat and we escaped safely.
We were also served lunch. I hate this fish. So much. We get it like every day and it has 9,000 bones and just creeps me out in general. I had a lot of rice instead.
We wrapped our day up with an exciting trip to the ER for Jennifer. She’s fine now, but Janine and I were convinced she was about to die. Thankfully, our amazing host father rushed us 30 miles away at midnight to the “good hospital” to make sure she was fine. We (minus Jennifer who was exhausted) were dying laughing because he said he never drives over 60 mph, but he was going 63. So he told us to “close your eyes and pray to God” as he frantically weaved in and out of traffic. I also finally managed to get some medicine for my own cold/strep throat (<- didn’t realize I was carrying that around) that I had been enjoying for 12 days.
Only the lonely.

Come home! You need Reese’s and Mexican food and the good old U S A.
Have I mentioned how jealous I am of your trip yet?!
WOW you are really far behind on posts. I actually didn’t think you’d post about the hospital. YOU are welcome by the way. Also thank Christine for her amazing work at being the Boss. Together our awesomeness knows no bounds and we will ensure your safety even from ‘merica.
Yep, we ROCK!! (I’m SO modest.) This post startled me…I was ready to take action, again! Glad someone pointed out that you were behind, otherwise…
Props to Host Dad by the way. Big hug to him for taking care of you both!
Can’t wait until you get home! And, what amazing children from your last entry. I would be so tempted to adopt…seriously! But at least there is a link to help. So, reduce the bottles of wine by a couple each month and there you go…see you soon for pizza and reese’s!! Miss you.
how’s my little hater doing? Did you watch top gear with her?
She is doing great. She is enjoying running…yes, I said running…in the back yard with our dog Hedi. And, she is loving pumpkin treats and having her head scratched. I did turn on Top Gear one evening for her, but she really seems to enjoy Downton Abbey. She snuggles and snorts when I cry…awwwwww.
Ah Yeah see here’s the thing, she likes certain episodes of top gear…I’ll link a clip of a similar episode…

She likes the funny parts… Also the words run and bardough don’t mix..however Christine sent me a picture of your dog and Bdough guarding the backyard..hilarious.
Apparently this has been a life changing experience for Bdough as well :)
Don’t be surprised if Erin has her wearing a little A&M sweater before too long.
I will have to look up similar episodes for her. She has a DVR in her room so I could record them for her. Glad you saw a photo. I have been sending several to Cely so she gets her Bardot fix. She sure missed her mommy!
I am an AGGIE fan..So she better have some aggie gear for little furbaby. I swear on everything holy I WILL make Cely an Aggie fan. I’ll be like oh you wanna get married? weird cause i want you to be an aggie fan…boom. I WIN
A&M Sweater? Heck…I’m trying to teach her to Whoop! Last weekend got a great new Aggie hat…may be time for some more Bardot poses…
Hahahaha yeeeeessss!!!!!!!! Pose bardot in Aggie gear.
It is on….
Super jealous of your trip. And when are you going to explain who this mysterious commenter named Justin is? ;)
PREACH IT SISTA’! :-)
YES! PLEASE! We want details.
How in world can you lovely ladies wear makeup in that heat? I’d look like like a crying clown within minutes of seeing daylight.
Right?! I keep thinking that for how hot and “sweaty” they are that they look like a bunch of beauty queens.
For the record I use a wet wipe on my face every few minutes. And 90% of my photos are super sweaty face still.
I usually don’t wear makeup, it’s just slides off my face. I try to wear it to the Rotary meetings so I don’t look so haggard, but that happens rarely as well. I don’t know how they do it. I’ve completely given up on my hair and face.
So…knowing your driving abilities, I am REALLY scared that you were driving the boat. Just say NO to the fish. KEEP posting amazing pictures. We need to pick the most awesome pictures for office decor. Amazing!
Miss you friend. I’m in on the pizza and reeses party.
Don’t forget to throw a little photo love this way to my office! Yes…jealous.
I know you have been gone for weeks but what will one more day hurt? I think we should take a day to have pizza and reeses and hear all about the trip!
Cely, PLEASE tell us that you aren’t really dating this Justin guy. You deserve SO much better than someone who has the time to comment on your blog all day
LOL
Lol I couldn’t agree more!
Hey! Justin is a sweetie. He’s very busy…but never too busy for those he cares about–especially those who are far away. I think it’s nice that he posts. Keep posting Justin :)
Thanks Christine, as for the rest ya’ll little ladies… look my girl is a million miles away and we get maybe 2 hours a day to talk to each other because of time zones. I post on the blog so that while I’m asleep she can read small little comments that may brighten her day. I don’t even know why I’ defending myself on here because it’s ridiculous. So if you don’t like the fact I comment on my woman’s blog, then go read another blog…or SKIM past my comments. HATERS gonna hate!
Word.
You said it boyfriend…
Tell ‘em “talk to the hand…cause the face don’t give a…”
(Ok it’s a little 90s but it still works)
haha that’s awesome, I haven’t heard that expression in a minute. I take it you got the hotel internet to work down in the bellows of hell..
My five year old daughter told her friend to talk to the hand on the way to preschool the other day and her friend replied “hi hand!” It made me LOL, I hadn’t heard that expression in so long!
Loving your adventures, Cely!
Also, you are looking ridiculously healthy. India looks good on you. :P
