Days 5&6 - Day at Sea and Back to Dry Land


Our last day aboard the ship was spent just cruisin' the ocean blue.
Filled with games of rummy, dance classes (I watched, the other 3 participated), and good food all day!

Aunt Lisa

Bust-A-Move dance class
(No, we didn't know the lady awkwardly smiling behind Ash...)

Karaoke for St. Jude's!
$10 got you a bracelet, a t-shirt, and the chance to sing;
I didn't sing, but Ash braved it!


Chocolate Moustache, anyone?

Mom and I were missing my sister's 25th birthday, so we celebrated for her with delicious cake.

Our makeshift birthday candle.

Our dinner group, minus Aunt Lisa

My first (and probably last) Apple-tini.
not my favorite...

The next day, our cruise adventure came to a close.
We left the good ol' Carnival Ecstasy early Monday morning and headed back to our hotel.
That night, we rented a car and headed off to Downtown Disney for dinner and sightseeing.
Stitch! He was spitting on people.




He was ticking at me...

My favorite Disney princess of all time.
She reads nonstop, AND she came to the man's rescue, not the other way around!

We spent a good five minutes trying to figure out who this was supposed to be.
Then, she moved.
We were fooled by the Golden Girl!


Dinner at the amazing House of Blues

teehee.





Tomorrow, the last of the round-up.
A magical trip to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter!!!

Day 4- Half Moon Cay



So, my new life plan? 
To become über-rich and buy my own private island.
That's what Carnival cruise line has done.
Half Moon Cay is an island in the Bahamas that Carnival owns,
so it's a lot like being on the ship, but with a beach.
Our day at Half Moon Cay consisted of the beach, snorkling, BBQ, and sunning.

Nerd Wave!

My gorgeous relatives

Hi mama!

Can you guess which one I am??
Hint: I glow in the dark, I'm so white.

Sexy, right?

Our coconut monkey heads!
They held the drink of the day, and can be used as a money bank...





On a non-vacation related note,
I was featured on Little Reminders of Love's new series, Dating Around the World.
It's a pretty nifty series idea, and those interview questions were more difficult than I anticipated!
Do yourself a favor and check out the series, you won't regret it!
