Well, our cruise was pretty much amazing! The first and last days were a little bit cool, but we didn't care. We relaxed! We didn't take many pictures with the "real camera", but here they are. Most of the pictures were taken with the water camera. I will post those when I get the camera to CVS, which means....well....maybe sometime next year! Ha, I will try to do it sooner than that.
On Tuesday, we were in Cozumel. We went "power snorkeling" which means that we snorkeled with this machine that you hold on to. It pulls you around the water. So, it pretty much does the work for you! That was at 9:00 in the morning and we were able to get back on the ship, shower and change, and get back to town for a meal and some shopping.
On Wednesday, we were in Grand Cayman. We went to the beach and para sailed. (Not sure it that is supposed to be one word or not). It was a lot of fun, my second time, and Dicky's first. We were 300 feet above the water...that is as tall as the tower at Six Flags (according to my husband...who knows stuff like that!?!)! Then we got back on the ship and layed out.
On Thursday, we were in Jamaica. We took a 2 hour bus ride (each way) to climb Dunns River Falls, a beautiful (and freezing) waterfall in Jamaica. I think that this was my favorite excursion. I climbed the waterfall with my family the summer after I graduated high school and it was just as fun this time! :)

The other days, we were at sea and relaxed and ate! Here are a few pictures that we got...
Getting ready to leave Galveston! It felt so weird without Molly there.
Dicky and our cruise ship in Cozumel. This picture makes me laugh. You should have seen him when I was taking this. You would have thought that he was a 7th grade boy that was embarrassed by his family.
Eating in Cozumel. I played it safe and got quesadillas. Dicky got chimichangas. It was good, but it sure is hard to beat good ol' Tex-Mex (like Anamia's). 
He will be upset with me for posting this picture...

And we did a lot of this...laying around!
We had a great time but missed Molly so much! We are glad that we went, just the two of us. We were able to get some R&R and Molly had a fun week with Mimi and Pops. We were one of the first ones off of the ship on Sunday morning! Normally, you set your luggage outside of your stateroom the last night, and they gather it up for you and take it where you need them to in the morning. If you want to carry all of your luggage (and we had a lot) then you can get off of the ship first. We both decided to do that. It was either get off of the ship at 7:15 or 11:00. We carried our own bags for sure...it got us home to our girl that much sooner. Too bad she had just started a 2 1/2 hour nap when we got home, so we had to wait that long to see her anyway! Oh well...
