Day 4 & 5: Crete & Rhodes

Oops! I did not mean to get a day behind! We are having so much on the Mary Kay Top Director trip! Yesterday we went to the island of Crete. The scenery really reminded me of Napa Valley back home. 

We saw the ruins of the ancient palace of Knossis then enjoyed a relaxing afternoon by the pool visiting with other top directors. I loved getting to know everyone! This cruise ship is so cool and I keep finding out new things every day! For example, the pool is a SALT WATER pool....no chlorine! So it’s like your in a crystal blue ocean pond! How cool is that?!?!

That evening we enjoyed wonderful meal at Prime 7, one of the ships specialty restaurants with Top Sales Director Holly Ennis and her husband Charles. It was so nice getting to know them both better and hear Holly’s Mary Kay stories. Cody ordered the BIGGEST Alaskan King Crab EVER and a HUGE steak. And yes, he did name drop the “Cornelia Marie” for all you Deadliest Catch fans! :-)



Today we arrived in Rhodes. I LOVED RHODES! Super cute little town. When I woke up this morning and looked outside I thought I was at a castle! Check out the view from our balcony!! 


All of the streets were cobblestone and we went and saw the Acropolys of Lindos (spelling??!?!) and the Palace of the Knights. It totally felt like I was in a Harry Potter movie! :-)


I spent the afternoon shopping with Mary Strauss (many of you know her from the Sacramento area) and then another amazing afternoon getting mentored by Top Directors Tara Mitchell (she was Queen in Pearl last year for sharing), Diane Detesco (funniest i-story EVER), Tracy Chavez, and New National Sales Director Jeanie Martin! Isn’t that just a fun mouthful??!?!?!?!?

We had a fabulous dinner with some other couples on the ship, Leah & Cliff Lauchlan, Tara & Adam Mitchell, Laura, and Kristen Rogers. It was amazing hearing their i-stories and swapping ideas. It was like the United Nations of Mary Kay!!! LOL



I know it’s short, but we have a packed day at Ephesus tomorrow!
