Cruise
Sunrise
Sea
Morning Run


Regardless of how far you choose to travel to escape the daily routine of waking up and going to work, the one aspect you can’t always take a vacation from is being human. Vacation time is generally comprised with activities you wouldn’t normally engage in but it may also include pastimes that you can’t always seem to breakaway from as well. 

Often times I return from vacation feeling I need a break to just to recuperate but that doesn’t leave me yearning I should have done something differently so as to avoid this consequence. Just like smokers have a hard time parting from their cigarettes despite their geographical location, the same is true with me in regards to working out. If you’ve every traveled on a cruise ship you should know that you’re doing yourself a favor by visiting the gym but it’s not a practice you can easily instill on anyone.

I rejoiced in waking up at 6am in the morning jogging on the outside track of our cruise ship and it was unlike anything else doing it at sea in the middle of nowhere.

Puerto Rico
Sunrise
Cruise
Awaiting Sunrise

Land based vacations are enjoyable, but I’ve already grown accustom to waking up in a different country before the sun rises. Most of our recent travels have involved cruise lines and the idea of exploring new beaches, different cultures and exotics foods has become a theme which I’m not ready to give up yet .

 Normally we’ve always settle for interior rooms that often resemble a jail cell but on this occasion we splurged on one with a balcony view. By choice, I slept on the side of the bed closest to the window so that I can quickly calculate when was the ideal time to sneak out and shoot a sunrise. I took this photograph as the sun slowly ascended in San Juan, Puerto Rico as our ship was docking back.
