Snorkling in the Virgin Islands

Here is a picture of me snorkling in the Virgin Islands. It was so awesome. I cannot describe the blue water in the Virgin Islands. It is like a blue that I have never seen before. And the sands on the beaches of St. Maarten was like silk. (They even sold it!) When I was snorkling (I have been before, but it has been awhile), the fish were about 2" from my mask. It was amazing. When I came up, my guide told me that the mask is magnified 25% to make things look bigger, and closer. I wonder how close up those fish were to my face!!!

Cruisin' the Caribbean

Nathan and I went on a Caribbean cruise with a few of our friends. We had the time of our lives. There is so much to do, and so much to see! We stopped at three ports: San Juan, Puerto Rico; St. Maarten, Netherland Antillies; and St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. We had such a blast! Here we are on the side of the ship. There was a huge slide (like 2 or 3 decks high) you could go on, miniture golfing, ping pong, entertainment shows, and other fun things on board. We are looking forward to the next time we can go!
