Cruise

Yes I'm a little behind on my blog, but I better give a little info on our cruise. We went to the Caribbean for our Ten Year Anniversary. It was so nice to get away and spend some time together. We went with Brett & Natalie Butler, friends of ours who were married a month before us. I don't have all my pictures from the cruise yet but here are a few we have now.
We arrived in Miami two days before we were scheduled to leave. Our hotel room was awesome. It had two seperate rooms with a kitchen and living room in between the two bedrooms. They actually upgraded us for free, we were supposed to only have one bedroom. Saturday we decided to go to the Everglades. We went on a boat ride that was a lot of fun and while we were stopped we had an alligator come right up to our boat. Here it is.
Then after the ride they had an area where we could go and look at some alligators and other animals. Then they had a reptile show where they let us hold a baby alligator. Later that day we decided to head out to South Beach. It was spring break so there were a million college kids everywhere. We decided not to stay too long, it looked like it might get interesting once the sun goes down.We arrived at the ship on Sunday Morning. My favorite part of the ship was our room. I feel a little spoiled because we had a balcony. If we go on a cruise again I don't know if I could go back to not having one.Our first port was Roatan Honduras. We did a zip line through the trees then we went to the beach.

Our next port was Belize. I got certified to Scuba Dive before we left and we were able to go diving in Belize. Kelly wasn't able to dive because of his epilepsy. He snorkled while we dove.

In Cozumel we rode on these X rails. Kelly decided he wanted to get one after we were done. Then we went back and did some shopping.
