More Cruisin

 
Posted by Picasa


We had 2 ports back to back after two days at sea. The first day was at St. Maarten where we rented a car, got alittle lost, got a flat tire, fixed it with a piece of gum (not kidding), and then finally found an awesome beach that we stayed the whole day on! The girls rented lounge chairs with umbrellas and the boys took a wave runner out to a snorkel spot.

The next day we went to St. Thomas which we loved! Matt and I have been there before and just loved it! The island is so small and quaint with the most beautiful beaches. Nate and Brittany spent the day golfing so we spent the day with the granthams shopping, beach hopping, trying a "local" restaurant where we learned what Jerk chicken was and more snorkeling.

The last couple of days were spent at sea and then one more port day at the Princes Cays a private island in the bahamas. The weather was perfect and Dave, Matt and I went Scuba Diving. It was incredible and the visibility was amazing. We saw seriously neon fish and coral, a sea turtle, a huge crab and a sting ray.

One of the nights after dinner Nate was hypnotized and it was hilarious. I have never seen it before and he was doing some crazy things! Afterwards he didnt remember a thing but soon became a celebrity on the boat! Then next night Dave got picked on to do a stunt on stage that was pretty funny too! What good sports!

We had the best time and wished we could have stayed even longer. You can see in some of the pictures our bellies started to grow from all the yummy food we ate! Now its back to reality!
