Our favorite thing to do for vacation is to cruise. This was the fifth cruise Mike and I had been on and Joey's second. In Fort Lauderdale we boarded the MS Eurodam and headed for the Caribbean.
Mike and Joey played a little basketball on the ship.
We docked first in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
We toured two forts in Old San Juan. The forts were built in the 1600s and were used by military until after World War II. They were beautiful. The first one we went to was Castillo San Felipe del Morro.
Wild iguanas wander all over the place in Old San Juan.
Here I am sitting on a big pile of hot balls.
The second fort we toured was Castillo San Cristobal, named for Christopher Columbus.
I gotta admit, the dungeon creeped me out a little
and the tiny tunnels were a little scary.
The view was beautiful as we walked around Old San Juan.
Our next stop was St. Thomas. Locals really do drive around on these narrow streets and they drive on the "wrong" side of the road. It's amazing and more than a little frightening to ride in a taxi.
The beach at St. Thomas was gorgeous, even when a tropical storm blew in very suddenly, drenched everything, then suddenly blew out.
Mike on the beach, before the storm drove us to downtown.
Tropical paradise!
Our last stop was Half Moon Cay, Bahamas, which just so happens to be the most beautiful place on earth without question. Here we are on the ship's tender to shore.
I love this place!
This is the most beautiful beach in the world. The water is shallow and warm and the sand is white, and soft and fine as powdered sugar.
Here's Joey getting ready to snorkel with the sting rays.
The sting rays were awesome! We snorkeled in their little corner of the ocean. We fed them squid. It was sort of creepy. They suck the gross little things right out of your hands. We stood in the water and the sting rays swam between our legs. The are soft and slimy. It was an amazing experience.
Joey reluctantly posed for a picture.
Time to say good bye to our vacation. Boo hoo!!! I gotta figure out a way to live in the Caribbean!
