7 day Western Carribean Cruise!!!

We flew into Miami, went to Cozumel, Belize, Roatan Hondurez, and Grand Cayman Islands

Our large boat... not too shaby!
There was a slide, two swimming pools and several hot tubs on board. There was also a work out room- which I should have used because of how much I ate all week- stores, piano bar, comedians, shows, casino, basketball court, volleyball net, mini golf, ping-pong and all sorts of fun stuff to do on board!



Doesn't Stu just look Fabulous!!!


They had all you can eat ice cream that you could get any time of the day, it was great!





Our cabin on board!

If you want to be pampared and spoiled and have no responsibility, I suggest going on a cruise! Our room was cleaned twice a day and they always left a different animal made out of towels on the second cleaning. We had an elephant, stingray, monkey, swan and other cool stuff!
We had a nice big window in our room which was large enough for Stu and I to both sit on. We would close the curtains in the evening and had it be all dark where we could look out and see the white waves across the water.

Funny story.... The last day of the cruise I wanted to play a joke on the guy that cleaned our room, because we had been teasing with him all week. I saw them cleaning the room next door and hadn't gotten to our room yet. So I snuk in the room, hid in the window sill and closed the curtains. Well he came in to clean the room where he started with the bathroom and I waited in the windowsill. He then came over to make the bed and when he was about 1 foot away from the window I jumped out and said BOO! I think I about gave the poor guy a heart attack! The funny thing was that it wasn't even the room cleaner I thought it would be, it was his assistant! He jumped so high and it startled him so bad. I still chuckle inside when I think about it.... you would have had to be there to truly appreciate it. Now every time he cleans a room he will probably open the curtains first!





Belize!







It was really rainy in Belize, but very beautiful! This is the resort where we got our scuba gear and went scuba diving. You don't even notice the rain when you are under the water! it is fabulous!!!



Cozumel


Stu and I went scuba diving in Cozumel and it was beautiful! We saw lots of tropical colored fish, a barracuda, a long eal, crabs, and lots of other cool stuff! Our first dive was 85 feet deep for about 45 minutes and the second was about 50 feet deep for 45 minutes. It is such a trip being able to breath under water for that long.... It's not natural.... but I love it!!!








Roatan Hondurez!

We did a 45 minute zip line on 13 different platforms!















Roatan Hondurez

This tree was super cool! some of the branches grew straight down to the ground



If you notice the birds beak on the top of Stu's hat, well that innocent looking bird bit off the button on the top of his hat and was chewing on it while he got passed around to sit on other people's shoulders. There was a pile of buttons on the ground below us.... I guess this bird makes a habit of stealing pieces of people's clothing!
