We are back, we had a great time. We relaxed, ate a lot, laughed a lot, missed the kids a lot, and saw gorgeous islands that some day if I win the lottery I would consider purchasing. Other than that, I think it's just better to start the slide show, because that is what really tells the story of our vacation.
Oh yes, and a waiter asked if we were on our honeymoon. Which, obviously, made my year. If you think we are that young and you can't tell by looking that I have four kids somewhere across the ocean, even if you just want a massive tip... well yes, I am that shallow, and I would tip for a compliment. Seven day Date: a Success!
 |
| Day 1: Crisis averted, I found my sunglasses |
 |
| Kevin claimed he was just really excited about endless coffee. |
 |
| Interesting towel displays every night |
 |
| View from back of ship during lunch. I could get used to that |
 |
| Oh yes we are that fun |
 |
| Ahoy! Land! |
 |
| Waving to the Land. After 2 sea days, it was exciting |
 |
| San Juan Port |
 |
| Really... land! |
 |
| Old San Juan |
 |
| Wall along Old San Juan Port |
 |
| My, "hey there's a cat in there!" face |
 |
| Cristo Chapel, San Juan |
 |
| San Juan Cathedral: Second oldest Cathedral in America. Of course, really cool for us. You've read my other blogs, correct? |
 |
| This place was filled with cats! |
 |
| San Juan Cathedral and my new Coach purse. Oh how I love Vacation Kevin |
 |
| If the economy gets bad..... |
 |
| After considering being a Barrista, we found the court house |
 |
| Look, it was bankruptcy court! Kevin could move right in. Then, we smiled our way into a tour of the court house. Kevin said it was very "Jan Johnson" of me. (That's a go getter attitude, mom. It's a compliment!) |
 |
| Entering St. Marteen Port |
 |
| Where's the Ship? |
 |
| Gorgeous Beach. |
 |
| St. Marteen |
 |
| El Presidente es delish! |
 |
| No beach is complete without a man selling fresh coconuts out of a wheelbarrow. And his machete |
 |
| Trying my first sip of real coconut water. Not super impressed. But totally worth the $5 to try |
 |
| We continued our Catholic Tour of the St. Islands, at St Martin |
 |
| Statue of St. Martin of Tours, Bishop, 371 - 397 (who Island was thought to be named after by Christopher Columbus) |
 |
| Dinner on the Ship |
 |
| Interesting "world tour" restaurant |
 |
| St. Kitts... On the Left, Atlantic Ocean. On the Right, Carribbean |
 |
| This place was unbelievable |
 |
| Because when you are on a boat, why wouldn't you think about buying a 1,000 watch that comes with it's own bullet proof case? Then again, who tries to shoot a watch? |
 |
| Oh yes he did |
 |
| Safety first |
 |
| For my Dad. Always open Dad, Always available |
 |
| When a chair looks like this, it just makes you pose |
 |
| In the "nest" .. a level on the ship for reading nooks |
 |
| Night Lawyer. And of course we act like this in public. It's only fitting when our kids are gone |
 |
| Mid ship. |
 |
| Weird art all across ship makes for Mitchell's acting weird |
