VACATION

Jul 27, 2009

We are back from a wonderful vacation. We went on a cruise to Bahamas, St. Thomas, Puerto Rico, and Turks & Cacios Islands. We had a ton of fun.

Saturday, we boarded the cruise ship in Miami. Sunday, were went jet skiing in the Bahamas and then went swimming in the ocean for a few hours. I fought those jet ski's all over the ocean but I am glad I did it.

Then, we were at Sea on Monday. 

Tuesday, we were in St. Thomas. We walked shortly around the pier and then caught our shuttle to Megans Bay Beach. We went up to a look out and took pictures and then went to the beach. We swam around in the ocean for 3 hours. There was a sting ray that circled us. It was neat to see it swim around us. We just enjoyed being in the water. Then, we went back to the ship.

Wednesday, we arrived in Puerto Rico. We walked five blocks to a fort. It was HOT HOT HOT!! It was so humid it was miserably hot. We walked up the hill to this fort and then walked all over it. It was neat to see it all and go through all the hidden places. Then, we walked back to the ship. 

Thursday, we arrived in Grand Turk, Turks & Cacaos Islands. It was very pretty. We walked ashore and walked to a catamaran. We went on a 60 foot catamaran to a coral reef in the middle of the ocean. I was all ready to go snorkeling until he said it was 6,000 feet deep. I thought there is way too many things swimming around in that deep of water. So, I stayed on the catamaran and Jory went snorkeling. Jory said he is glad I stayed in the boat because I would have freaked. He saw jelly fish, large fish, small fish, sting rays, and more. He said it was beautiful though. Then, we all sailed to a place and dropped anchor. We all jumped off the boat and went swimming. It was really nice and they served rum drinks in the water. It was cool. Then, we got back in the boat and sailed back to the pier. We walked back to the ship. 

Friday we were at sea all day. It was nice and relaxing. So, overall our trip was great. We ate too much, watched some fun shows (production shows, comedians, and hypnotists). We hated coming home but we have to pay for the new car we bought before going on vacation :) Yesterday I did nothing but laundry and then go get groceries.

Now we will just look forward to our Vegas trip in October for our 10 year wedding anniversary.
