My cruise!

Well, everyone keeps asking to see pictures. Personally, I secretly hate looking at other people on fun vacation in warm and beautiful places while I'm stuck in cold, cold Utah, but I guess everyone wants to see these pictures, so here ya go!

First, we got stuck on a plane and almost missed our transfer...but eventually we got to Miami. We stayed in the Breakwater hotel right on the middle of busy South Beach, which was loud and booming till 3 or 4 in the morning. It was definitely.... an experience. South Beach isn't really our kind of place. The airboat tour in the everglades was awesome though! Here's some pics in Miami.

Here we are stuck on a plane without food or drinks or being allowed to get off the plane. Awesome.


That's our awesome airboat!








Here's a video of the airboat tour. I'm glad Clayton recorded it since I couldn't see much with the wind in my eyes.


Here's the beach...the least lovely of all the beaches we saw.



That's our giant non-alcoholic drink. There was a guy who sat down at a table next to us and asked the waiter to get whatever we were having. The waiter said, "Their drink doesn't have alcohol," to which the guy said, "Oh, I definitely want alcohol."


This was our hotel...it had an awesome rain shower. Now I've decided I need one! Unfortunately, it was right in the middle of South Beach (Breakwater Hotel), so it was loud. The music didn't stop until 3 AM! Right outside our window was a little courtyard with a life band and bar-type place. We were four floors up, and the room still shook from all the noise.



Finally! We made it on the cruise!




Goodbye Florida!


I slept a lot on the ship...



Hello Grand Turk!



I also slept on the beach...






Hello Half Moon Cay! The sand at this place was AMAZING!




And finally... Hello Nassau! This was obviously our favorite place ever!



Do you see that tube with the people in it? We went through that tube. You go down a completely dark slide and then on a lazy river through a shark tank. It was sweet!





The Atlantis aquarium...you know after we swam in the SWEET water park... was also super cool!



Look how huge those things are!




Yeah...Clayton wants to be king.





On the way home, we went up to the top deck and looked out to see these other ships going back to Florida too. Look how dark it is, and then there's these ships with a ton of lights!


Here are all our friends. Thanks to our amazing room cleaners who somehow always remembered our names.


Yes...that's the TSA agents in the Miami airport obviously paying so much attention to the threatening people.
