The Cruise

Mark and I decided it was time to spend some some quality time together, so we went on a cruise. We took a 5 day cruise on the Navigator Of The Seas through Royal Caribbean and had the time of our lives. There was so much to see and so much to do that when we got home we felt like we needed a vacation to recoup from our vacation.

Here we are waiting at the Tri-Rail station. We took an hour long train ride to Fort Lauderdale where we caught our ship.

While we were waiting, an Amtrak train passed us

The first night we were there they had a Set Sail parade on the Promenade

We played golf the first day we were there.

We took this picture from the helicopter pad

I'm on top of the world!

Mark looks like he's praying to some ocean God

Our beautiful dining room. It was hard to believe we were actually on a ship!

Formal night was so much fun. It was nice being able to dress up and to see what others were wearing. This staircase was a popular place to take pictures.

Still having fun

Every night our room attendate would make an animal out of towels.

Our favorite day was spent at a place call Playa Uvas.

This is what you call paradise!

The pavilion where we ate lunch.

We went snorkeling which was a fun experience. We saw a sting ray, barracuda, lots of Dori fish and Mark even saw an octopus.

I called this the mushroom tree

Our beautiful cruise ship

You don't really realize how big your boat is until you are standing next to it. It's totally amazing!

Leaving the port in Cozumel

The elephant

Our next stop was in Belize. Here we went to see the Mayan Ruins.

Here is a tree that grows a certain kind of nuts that the Mayans used.

A very long walk up to the top

We loved walking along the Promenade

Looking down on the Metropolis theater. Every night there was a show to attend.

This picture gives you an idea of how many decks there are. It's taken from the Promenade. Keep in mind there are many more decks than this picture shows.

The swan

We were getting ready to participate in a game show.

Here is Mark coming back from turning in our answer to the game question.

The last night there they had a farewell parade.

We had so much fun on our cruise but as you can see we got worn out. Here we are sitting in the airport waiting to go home.
