2011 FRW Cruise with your Muse Conference: Day 1

We boarded the Carnaval ship from the beautiful port of Miami. While waiting for our rooms to be ready, we enjoyed our first lunch at sea and then went to register for the conference in the library.







Soon we had to line up on the deck for the drill session. Mona with Nancy Cohen and Heidi Cote.

Mona with Ashley Chase, Judy, Tina, and Renee.
