Last Minute Cruise...






We just got back from our first cruise and on day 16 I still have land sickness. From everything I read this is normal for some people. Jesse has been fine only after 2 days but I'm on day 21 and still a little dizzy.
Thanks to uncle Mike we booked the Norwegian Pearl for 7 days. On the first day we hit the food, pool Jacuzzi and the Casino.

 
 

We won dinner for 2 at one of the pay restaurants and saved it for the end of our cruise. Our day at sea we relaxed by the pool, worked, played bingo and watched a show.




On the 3rd day we docked in Honduras. We decided on zip lining with the beach for our excursion. It was so much fun.

They also had monkeys running around everywhere.




 
 
Once on the ship it was time for heavy drinking gambling and more shows. The food was awesome!!

Day 4 was the Mayan ruins of Altun Ha. Our tour guide was excellent. 







 He knew the history of everything and shared amazing stories with all of us.
  We stopped for a local beer on our way to the ruins and a little beer for the way back.



We were just a few blocks from the ship when our van broke down.





They sent a new one out right away to pick us all up and we made it back with time to spare.

On day 5 we stopped at Costa Maya, Mexico. I think this was my favorite day laying on the beach and swimming in the crystal clear water.

We were greeting by Jaime who owned the bar where we were lounging.

We had yummy fish tacos and beer all day and relaxed.


We came back to the ship feeling renewed.



Our day at sea was spent playing Bingo, laying by the pool, eating, more eating, drinking.. ect.
 



Day 7 we were at my home away from home in Key West.

 
We stopped at the Little White House, walked past Hemingway's house and had a few beers and conch fritters at the Hogs Breath.


 
We celebrated our last night with bottle of champagne.
Jesse says a sad goodbye with a bagel and a big heaping pile of lox.
