Cruise to Mexico :)

For my vacation, I'm planning to take a cruise on the Holland America Line to Mexico. It's a 7-day Mexican Riviera in the Deluxe Verandah suite. It's huge so I'll be bringing friends.

We'll be porting in San Diego, California, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, and Cabo San Lucas.
 
While in San Diego, I'm gonna go to Sea World, the World Famous San Diego Zoo, and of course lots of shopping! In Mexico I'll go on the ATV & Village Adventure, where I ride my own personal semiautomatic fourwheeler to explore the countryside and villages. In Cabo San Lucas, I'm going on the Beach Horseback Ride and go scuba diving. These are just the highlights, there is so much more to do.
Food is provided on the cruise and we'll stop at various shops and restaurants to try the variety of food in different places.
As far as money goes, I'll probably have to bring a few thousand just to be sure....

I've never been on a cruise so this will be an extra special occasion for me. The combination of activities on this vacation just blows my mind, if only it were real :)

Blog #4 Ella Baila Sola

First of all, here is my video.

The artist I chose for my blog is Ella Baila Sola. I thought the song for the video above sounded pretty so that's why I chose them.
Ella Baila Sola is a Latin pop duet from Spain. I had never heard of this band before today but they have been called the Dixie Chicks of Spanish music. They originally sang in English but changed the band's name to "Ella Baila Sola" from "Just" and started singing in Spanish.I like their music, it kind of sounds like it would be like an American popular girl band like the comparison I said before. They got Best Spanish Band at the Premios Amigo which is like an award show I'm guessing. The song in my video is Te Vas y Te Pierdo, which means "You Leave and I Lose You". It sounds like a sorrowful love song where the one she loves leaves her again and it hurts her.
