Back from a cruise
Posted: Wed Mar 09, 2016 5:18 am
I just got back from a spectacular cruise. It was a week long and exceptionally relaxing. And for the first time in my life, I went the whole trip wearing speedos only. In fact, I didn't even pack swim shorts.
The first day was the most apprehensive, but I quickly got over it. We started with the waterslide on board the ship. I wore a black speedo with 1" sides. It was late in the evening and it was somewhat cold, so there really wasn't anyone else in line which helped me get over my anxiety pretty quick.
Day 2 we got the spa passes and spent the day in the spa where they have saunas and hot showers, as well as hot tubs and heated loungers. Since I was feeling a lot more confident, I wore a pink speedo with 1" sides. We spent a couple of hours here, and were in and out of the showers and saunas a number of times and I continued to wear just the speedo.
Most of the rest of the week was back in the black speedo on the adult-only section of the deck. I would cool off in a shallow pool, then return back to my lounge chair and read a book for a few hours. I wore only the speedo the entire time I was up there, so there were 2-3 days that I wore only the speedo for the entire day.
The final day I wore a red speedo when we got off to go to the beach. When we got back to the ship, I spent some time in the hot tub. At the end, just to prove to myself that I could do it, I walked the full length of the ship in only my speedo.
It was an amazing week for me, and I think that now that I've managed to go the entire trip wearing speedos so openly and so often that I really don't have any reservations about wearing the speedo in the future. This trip did wonders for my self-esteem in speedos.

I did get a couple of looks, but no comments at all.
