The ultimate cup of coffee is the vacation coffee. Leisure, leisure, leisure. I don't understand why we take so little vacation in the U.S. It's just not enough to re-energize and reset. I don't have any vacation planned for the rest of the year, so making my coffee drinking as leisurely as possible is critical to my frame of mind.
The last vacation I had was in January, when Caroline, my partner, bought us an
Olivia Cruise to the Caribbean. It was so lovely, and leisurely. Last night, we watched a short DVD that Olivia sent us as a keepsake for our cruise. It brought back the luxurious feelings I had that week (I'm jonesing for more vacation).An Olivia cruise is a decedent experience. To be on a cruise ship with all lesbians is a wild experience. No matter what you do, you're doing it with other lesbians. I can't tell you how amazing that feeling is. And the cruise line is so accommodating. They take their jobs very seriously and I felt extremely comfortable. The down side is that no one I know, including me, can afford to do those cruises with any regularity. They are pricey. More so that your standard cruise line. So it's really only for the most well to-do lesbians. However, I highly recommend taking one. You will be so glad.
It's a luxury cruise. Your room is cleaned twice a day, and the bed turned down at night. The food is wonderful. Four course meals for dinner. Lots of entertainment. Our cruise had a performance from Lily Tomlin, Suzanne Westenhoefer, and the Indigo Girls among others. And, of course, the Caribbean was great! The water was so clear and warm. The beaches were clean. It was just awesome. I fell asleep in the sun everywhere we went. I highly recommend that.
Vacations are for treating yourself. Drink cappuccino. (Personally, I need to start my day with my morning coffee, but cappuccino from then on out.)
