Cruise!!!!!!!

To celebrate our 10 year anniversary we went on a carnival carribean cruise for 7 days! It was great!
What an awesome cruise!! We loved it! Our first surprise was our room. We had paid for an interior room with no windows, but when we got there, we were put on the 11th deck with a wall that was all window! It was great!
The ship was HUGE! Lots of great food and fun. We enjoyed bingo, shows, yummy food all day long, and the excursions.

Our first stop was Jamaica. We went directly to Doctors Cave Beach. We went parasailing. It was great! Not scary at all, there were no butterflies in the stomach coming down or anything. It was rather peaceful and fun. Then we played around on the beach after that.

Next stop, our favorite was Grand Cayman and swimming and snorkling with sting rays!!







Finally our last stop was Cozumel. A very commercial mexico! No haggling here. They wouldnt take more than a dollar off their products. We went horseback riding. It was very hot and I was a little concerned about the cattle and horses. There were ribs showing through a lot of them. But we still had fun, though I think next time we will stick with the snorkling and water fun. The horseback riding was taking us through the mayan jungle which was more like Arizona desert brush to look at ruins (which were replicas). The interesting thing there was a lot of underground caves. That would have been fun to explore.
It was a great trip. But we will probably go again in 5 or 10 years to celebrate our 15 or 20 year anniversary..... anyone want to come with us? It was great to come home to our kiddos. Who wouldnt want to hurry home to these cute kids???? :)
