Our Cruise

Hi everyone!

We're back from our cruise! We had a wonderful time, especially once I started feeling better. On the Thursday before we left I came down with Strep Throat, which made traveling a bit crazy, but by Tuesday (Key West day), I was feeling much better.

Our trip started in Houston, where we had a great visit with Matt Clinger and Laura (formally Laura Martin), and Katie. On Sunday our cruise took off from Galveston. We had beautiful weather throughout the whole cruise. Our stops were Key West, Grand Cayman, and the Rivera Maya (where we visited Xel-Ha). Our favorite stop was Grand Cayman, where we did a reef and sting rays snorkel. It was amazing!!! The sting rays must just know that this is the spot to go and get food, because there were about 30 of them, swimming all around us and letting us pet them. I'll post some shots from our underwater camera when we get them back.

Here's a few photos:

BJ getting some sun, with "creepy guy" in the background. Just because you're wearing sunglasses doesn't mean we don't know you're staring at us. Seriously, he wouldn't stop.


Our great table -- we had a great time getting to know everyone, especially the couple from Minneapolis (to the right of us at the table).
