Bad parts

Ok, there were some bad things on our cruise that I will mention.
1 The first day, I got a sunburn all over me. My back, arms, legs and face. That was painful. I had it for the first week. But Steve said that a lot of people got one also. It was supposed to rain that day, so they did not apply more sun tan lotion.

2 One of the beaches we attended was clothing optional. That was a large shock, as I was just sitting doing my own thing. Not fun at all. Made me happy I lived in America where it does not happen.

3 The second week, we had a new captain. He was younger and less experienced. So, the ship was much rockier. Part of that had to do with the waves, but partly about him. I was sick for 2 days. I also puked 2 times. It did not help that the TV channels played the same movies 5 times a day. By the end of the trip, I had seen Knights tale on 17 times. For real.

Well, I think that is it.
Oh, no. I did not get to sit at Peters(the young dutch guy) table. He had certain tables that he would come and talk to the people at them. He was always at the table we had been in the night before.

My cruise!!!

Ok, it was amazing!!!
Here is a list of where we went.

Half moon cay
Auba
Curacao
Grand turk
St. Maarten
Puerto Rico

I think that is it. I have now been in 8 countries! I went through Haiti and Cuba, but those don't count.
We did a lot of Snorkling, which was amazing! In Grand Turk, we went out on a boat to some great spots. Including a drop of 7,000 feet. We were not allowed out there.

In Puerto Rico, we walked the streets most of the day. And, ate the most amazing food ever!!! We also visited a fort called El Morro. That was really neat.

In Aruba, we took a private tour, of the Caves and Gold mines. SO cool!!
In Half moon cay, we swam all day. It is Private owned by Holland America cruise line. That is out ship.

In Curacao, we swam, again. Not that I minded. :)

On Board was the funnest part! There were shows at night, that were so good. There was an Elton John inpersonator, is that how to spell it?His name was Joel Mason. He was so funny, and very talented. There were broadway style shows, which were also very good. And there was an Illusionist/comedian guy. He was hilarious!!!!
In Joels show, I caught our cruise directors shirt when he ripped it off. It sounds strange, but it was really fun. We had him sign it.
In the Lido Restaurant, we could eat all day. Endless Ice Cream!!! The Dining room was the fancy alternative. We ate there every night. There was this young handsome dutch guy who was in charge of the Dining room. He was the best part. HAHA.
There was a teen program on the ship, that we were a part of. That is where we met Steve and Sean. Steve was the leader, he was awsome. We gave Sean a tour the first day of the second week, since he had not been there before. We spent the day with him, and became good friends.
Well, I'll be posting more about the trip, along with pics soon.
