It was Brittney and Ryan's 10 year anniversary this summer and they decided to take a cruise to celebrate, and invited us to come along! So in June we went on a Caribbean Cruise.
On the plane...
The view of Miami before we left.
Our first stop was the island of Nassau in the Bahamas. We rented scooters and drove to a more secluded beach.

On our way snorkeling.
While we rode on the boat to get to the snorkeling destination we passed Mary Kay, Tiger Woods, Nicholas Cage, and other celebrities' houses. Their yachts were usually visible as well.
Formal night
We had a lot of fun with the activities on the cruise. One show we saw was the juggler Chuck Gunter. He was very talented and was funny as well! He also got a few audience members involved. His juggling is worth watching, so if you are interested watch the video on: www.chuckisfunny.com/
They show the act in this picture on the video
There was a rock climbing wall on the cruise. Since the cruise was short, we didn't get to spend much time using the wall, but at least we got to try it out.
Our second stop was the island of Cococay.
Around the time we were planning to go back to the ship we saw dark clouds rolling in and tried to clean up our stuff as fast as we could, but to no avail. We got soaked as we waited for the ferry to take us back to the ship. In a matter of minutes it was pointless to hold towels over our heads because they were so wet. I also decided to take off my cover up because it was like we were swimming anyway.
Jeff, Brittney, and Ryan also went parasailing on Cococay
Our last and favorite spot was Key West, Florida.
Jeff, Barrett, and I went on a kayaking tour through the mangroves. It was very cool to learn about how mangroves grow and to see the beautiful scenery. We held a sea cucumber and got to see rare colors of anemones.
A huge statue at their museum
We ate at a place called "Sloppy Joes" (as you can see in the background) and listened to music while eating great food.
We were grateful for the awesome adventure to places we had never been and for spending time with family! Thank you Brittney and Ryan!
