The Great Vacay!!

Alright, I am giving you all fair warning that this is not the last time you will hear of my watery paradise vacation. I took enough pictures to blog about it everyday for a year, but for now, this will do. Look at this view! Our stateroom had its own veranda, so obviously, we spent a lot of time out there.

This is a picture of my kids standing in front of Mount Rustmore on Castaway Cay. This is Disney's private island which is absolutely gorgeous. We did a little research and this island actually was used for rum running back in the day.
I know that you are all jealous that I have seen the Flying Dutchmen in person. I have also have had the privilege of seeing the Black Pearl on one of our cruises to Mexico. How neat is that!



I loved the water. It was something that I have never experienced before. I have visited many beaches in my lifetime, and not once have ever seen water quite this beautiful.



All tuckered out! This is what happens when you spend the day building castles in the sand and stuffing your face with ice cream and cookies! What a sweet boy!




What is a white girl to do, and when I say white, I mean the belly of fish. After two days on the beach I turned a nice blotchy hue of red. (Leslie L. ... this was almost as bad as your racing stripes.) Sad thing is, this is me when I use sunscreen, you should see me when I don't. Yikes!
There is plenty more where this came from, but it will be a few days until we get up and going again from our move. 5 days and counting!!

What a fun vacation! I wish I was on a beach somewhere! I love the redness. Oh the sunburns I can get! My racing stripes were the BEST!

Looks like a fun time. I want to go to that island sometime. I love the sunburn.
