This is sort of a belated post about our Caribbean cruise. We got back three weeks ago, but I guess it's just been busy. We had a wonderful week aboard the Carnival Triumph - warm weather, fun ports, gorgeous blue Caribbean seas, relaxing days where our biggest decision was when and what to eat! We visited Jamaica, Grand Cayman, and Cozumel - all places we had never been. This photo was taken on our shore excursion at Cozumel on a large catamaran that took us snorkeling and to a private beach.The ship was huge. We explored a lot, but I'm sure we didn't see all of it. 893 feet long, with 3,000 guests from all over the world and an international crew of 1,000. We had great dinners every night. Even I finally maxed out on shrimp! And even after we were stuffed, we had to sample the fancy desserts! Then we went to a show every night - singing, dancing, comedian, illusionist. They were all really fun.
One of our favorite things was having a balcony room. Even though we booked late, our room and the Lesters' were side by side on the back of the ship. We sat on our balcony a lot, enjoying sunrises, sunsets, coffee in the morning, a glass of wine at night, and always the relaxing view of the sea.
We've lost the few pounds we gained, our tans are fading, but the memories will last forever! :)

mom and dad, on that first photo you both look outstanding.
You're right about the memories - they DO last forever!
You guys are not 50, you do a poor job of looking that old.
Sounds like a good time, and a good time to get out of the midwest. I will not cloud this post with snow and thunderstorms that are happening here.
You look like models on the cover of a travel magazine! Julie and I took a snorkel trip in Cozumel on a Catamaran that looked similiar. Pretty darn fast and fun for such a big boat!
