Ahhhh!!!!!!!!

I am SOOOO excited!!!!!! In six days, my mommy and daddy are coming to visit me!!!!! I can’t wait, I need big bear hugs!!!! Also, I am stoked because in two weeks we are heading back to Europe, a bitter sweet time. We have been here for about 4 months, so the new ports in Europe and Russia will bring some much-anticipated adventures. But, it also means the Brazilian cast signs off. They are all excited to go home, as I am looking forward to in June, but we have all become so close and it will be hard to say goodbye. I have to say the only downfall to meeting amazing people who live all over the world, is that they are amazing people who live all over the world. I am grateful for technology, so we can keep in touch over the Internet. Thank God I wasn’t born in the olden days where the only form of transportation to other countries was months spent on a boat (ironic???) but also you could only write letters and by the time your recipient received your news, it was OLD NEWS!!!!! Ugh, I would be such a different person because I wouldn’t be living in Brazil right now, experiencing what I am. But anyways, back to reality!

Unfortunately, Patrick (the casting director in Miami) has been out of the office so we haven’t had any news back on a future contract. It makes me anxious with all this waiting but all the ports of call are awesome places to visit, so I figure whatever I am offered would be pretty great! Maybe I could work on a ship that docks back in the states, so more of my family and even friends could come to sail! BUT, ya’ll remember I have so much more of Europe to see, as well as Australia and Asia so COME WITH ME!!!!!! :D Well, I’m off to research things my mom and dad would enjoy in our ports of call so they have the perfect trip!!!! (I already have several surprises lined up for them;) Looking forward to the months ahead, but also very excited to be coming home in two-ish months!!!!! Can’t wait to hug each and everyone of you!!!!!
