Bahamas, February 7 - 11, 2011








WOW!! What an amazing adventure!!! We took a 4 day cruise out of Miami and went to the Bahamas. It was gorgeous!! We got on the ship at noon on Monday. The boys couldn't believe you could just go to the buffet and eat and then just leave without paying. We had been on the ship for about 4 hours and they had already gone to the buffet 3 times!! Pizza and ice cream!!

Our first stop in the Bahamas was Freeport. We got off the ship and took a taxi into town for some shopping and then a day at the beach. The water is the most unreal turquoise blue. It is beautiful!! The boys had fun jumping on a big trampoline anchored out off the shore.

The second stop on the cruise was in Nassau. They had a very nice city with lots of shopping and lots of nice jewelry stores. I had fun LOOKING ONLY!! We headed over to Paradise Island where Atlantis is located and hung out at the beach there. The guys all went on a banana boat ride! The gorgeous white sand beaches with the blue, blue water is like a dream.

Our last stop was at Norwegian Cruise Lines private island Great Stirrup Cay. There is nothing on the island until the cruise ship comes. We had to take small boats in to the island. The boys enjoyed playing on the huge water slide they had there. Steve and Christopher had a great time snorkeling. They saw a ton of fish and sting ray. That was Christopher's highlight of the trip.

We had a great time on the cruise!!
