Random Pictures and stories

 We were so lucky to have gorgeous weather for the entire trip.  Not blazing hot, but warm enough to swim.   It was partly cloudy on some days, which was a blessing because we surely did not want to get a sunburn!  We went through a lot of sunscreen, but came home nicely tanned and not burned......our goal!

Doing pool aerobics..... a lot of fun!

The Atlantis Hotel in Nassau.   The area that connects the two halves of the hotel is a suite that was first used by Michael Jackson.  The boat driver also pointed out homes owned by Tiger Woods and other celebrities.

Always a beautiful breeze at Blue Lagoon.

When we first got onto the ship, we had lunch at the grill beside the pool.  Delicious hamburger!  And I had no idea wonderful meals I would eat in the days ahead!

We loved the balcony!

It was so nice to be able to open the window and smell the sea air.

This was a very interesting art installation we had to go through to get to our restaurant.   We called it "The Scary Forest".

Another piece of art just randomly displayed....a boat made out of pearls.

Some huge butterfly wings waiting for a photo opportunity.  I noticed only women posed with the wings........apparently men aren't delicate enough to be a butterfly!

Our cozy corner.....I'm glad I never go anywhere without books.

I met this guy on the ship.....but he seemed a bit wooden.

On the last night of the cruise, we finally made it down to the Grand Plaza to sit with a drink and listen to some music.  There's a dance floor, and a few people were up dancing.   Unbelievably, they begain playing our wedding song, "Wonderful Tonight".   Tag asked me to dance, and as we stood up, we heard a big cheer.   I turned around and there is a bride and groom on the dance floor - it was their wedding dance!  Oops!  We sat down quickly and enjoyed watching this young couple perform their wedding dance.   And reminised about our wedding 16 years ago.

Beautiful sunset on the last night of the cruise.

This was an unexpected adventure that turned out to be absolutely awesome!  I can see why people on the cruise would tell us they were on their 5th, 10th, 20th cruise.  I imagine it can be quite addicting!
