Cruisin'

We had a great time on our cruise. We went to the Bahamas, St Thomas (with a side trip to St John) and St Maarten. Abby and Jacob LOVED Camp Carnival (where they focus on kids). Everyday Jacob would wake up and say "What are we doing at Camp Carnival today?" Blake and Dylan took advantage of everything the ship had to offer. They went to all of the shows, the trivia contests, deck parties, backstage tours, etc. They had their own room and loved having the freedom to come and go. I was able to finish an entire book (yippee) and Steve had fun at the casino. It really was the perfect vacation! The islands were awesome. We took a 45 minute boat ride from St. Thomas to St. John and went to Trunk beach. The sand was SO white and the water was absolutely beautiful! The kids ran right in like it was pool water. We thought the Bahamas were ok, but we fell in love with the Virgin Islands. Of course, we are already thinking about when we can take our next cruise. Here are a few pictures.
