As we prepard to debark from the ship, we had one last ice cream experience. The unlimited self-serve ice cream was by far the favorite of the Jones family.
Talk about a small world...this is Tiffany. She was hanging around as we were playing volleyball so we invited her to join us. She was on the ship with just her mom, who was sleeping at the time. When volleyball ended, she asked if she could hang out with us. That was the start of a great friendship between Kali and Tiffany. It turns out she is LDS and leaves in San Diego. They got a steal of a deal on the cruise and decided to come. She said her Dad could not come because he had to work in the temple. He would suppose to work until noon that day and then come pick them up.
We said our goodbyes to her and headed for our appointment at the San Diego Temple to do baptisms. What a beautiful temple. We arrived 2 hours earlier than our appointment (I was not sure how long it would take to get off the ship) so we called to see if it was possible to come in early. The worker said they had been trying to contact me because they didn't have enough scheduled workers to do baptisms at noon, our appointed time. I told them we were outside in the parking lot and asked if we could come in early. After some checking, we were okayed to come in early. The worker in charge turned out to be Tiffany's dad, who would have normally left at noon. What a small world! What a blessing it was to be able to have things work out so perfectly. We not only were able to meet Tiffany's dad, but also get to do the baptisms. The Lord sure had a hand in that!!
Once we reached Lisa's house, you can bet everyone was anxious to go swimming despite the cooler weather.
We wore Loni out.
