Pictures - finally!
I promised to share some cruise pictures, so here they are! We had such a great time on our cruise! I wish I could be back there now! Though the weather today is surprisingly wonderful so it’s not so bad here right now… It was fun to look through these pictures and see just how happy both Doug and I look! That’s what a week off in the Caribbean will do! It wasn’t exactly a restful week as we were super busy most of the time, but it was mentally relaxing and lots of fun. We went with our friends Bill and Shawna, so you’ll see them in several of the pictures if you look through the whole set! (click on any picture below to be taken to the set of photos on flickr)
A few highlights:
Doug in downtown Cozumel (wearing his new hat that he bartered for!):
Doug and I on the catamaran we went on for a time of snorkeling and relaxing on the beach in Cozumel. The snorkeling there wasn’t the greatest, but it was great to be in the water on our most humid day of the trip! The beach was great too - with hammocks and water floaties, though we didn’t get any pictures there:
The next few are in Belize, where we took a boat to the jungle where we took Land Rovers out off-roading through some fairly deep mud! We also had a short stop at a small cave where we saw a bat and some stalactites and stalagmites 
On the boat - excited for the day:
In the cave:
Driving through the mud. The pic is a bit blurry due to the bumps!:
Standing by our Land Rover after the ‘expedition’ - I’m not sure how it stayed so clean! We were messier than the truck!
Now we’re in Roatan, Honduras on my birthday! We loved this beach! Plus there was amazing snorkeling just off the beach here - we wore ourselves out snorkeling and seeing lots of fun coral and fish! (I haven’t developed the water camera yet, so you’ll have to take my word for it!)
Our spot for the day:
The beautiful beach:
Doug and I at the beautiful beach - see how happy we look!
Back on the boat - here we are at our fanciest dinner:

Well that gives you a good taste of our cruise! You can check the photo set to see more pictures, including some in Freeport, Bahamas, and on the air boat ride we did near Cape Canaveral, FL. Can’t you see why I’d love to be back there now!

Beautiful! I think we all need to take one of those trips!
Looks like you guys had a great time!
Looks like you had a great time! Glad you got to do something special with just the two of you before your priorities change! Looks like you had a great place to celebrate your birthday too! I love to check in and see what you guys are up to. Keep blogging!
