Here are just a *few* of the pics we took last week, while on our 8 day vacation, 7 day eastern Caribbean cruise. I took over 150 pics. Lucky for you, I only posted a few =)
It was our first cruise, we had an absolute a-maz-ing time - definately something we will do again! =) Below, right after arriving on the ship, we took a little tour - these ships are incredible. Here we are standing in the middle of Deck 5, in the "Royal Prommenade", where guest services was at, a Ben & Jerry's ice cream shop, a jewelry store, a coffee shop, a pizza place, a souvinear store and lots more. They had this beautifully lit bridge that goes out to the prommenade..
Here is Jeremy, talking to his mom on the phone (checking on the kids) as we are pulling away from the dock.....we're setting sail!
They had a set-sail party by the pool, and we were even joined by Shrek and Fiona - made us think of Isaiah - he would've loved that!
First formal night......... =)
In the back of the ship, they had set up what was called a "Flow Rider" which was a wave stimulator, that made waves so people could surf or boogie board. Jer loved it and went back several times - even though it about killed his allready bad back! He's a glutton for punishment!
I didn't post pictures, but our first stop was Coco Cay Bahamas on Monday (9/26). Below is our second stop, St Thomas on Wednesday (9/28)
They had beautiful beaches! We took a tour bus over to Sapphire Beach - it was just georgous. Jer did some snorkeling and I worked on my tan =)
After Sapphire Beach, we took the same bus tour back through town to our dock to load back on the ship. We saw some amazing landscaping and scenery......
This was the 3 floor dining room where we ate each night....
Our 3rd stop was on Thursday (9/29), we went to St Maarten
Downtown St Maarten, where we did lots of shopping!!
We also visited the beach on St Maarten, and even rented a jet ski for half an hour.....tons of fun!!!
Several nights the waiters entertained us after dinner by song and dance - it was great fun!
Not only was Shrek and Fiona on the boat, so was Po from Kung Fu Panda....
Second formal night...
There was so much to do on the boat.......several pools, hot tubs, jogging track, work out room, salon and spa, game/cards room, multiple bars, resteraunts, Flow Rider, Casino, Ice Skating Rink, Trivia games and Rock wall climbing.....
Our dinner crew! We ate dinner every night with this couple, on the left, they were from Texas, the man 3rd from the left was our main waiter, and next to him was our assistant waiter. They did a fantastic job every night!
And of course each night we had to get a picture of our towel animal left on our bed by the room service crew! =)
We had such a fun time - and are looking forward to going back!
Happy 10 year anniversary to me and Jer!!!
