2014 Carnival Caribbean Cruise

We had an amazing time on the cruise!!  We went to Cozmel, Mexico on Tuesday, Belize City, Belize on Wednesday, Roatan Hondurus on Thursday, and Cayman Islands on Friday.  The weather was pretty great the whole time expect for some rough water and sprinkles on Thursday in Roatan, but that didn't keep us from the beach.

Red Frog Pub was a bar on the ship that we spent a lot of time in because it had a shuffle board table and other games.


This water slide was way cool for a water slide on a cruise ship.   It's called the Green Thunder. The first day I tried it was on Wednesday while Brian, Darryl, and Sheena were out snorkeling for the day.  Once you get to the top (it was a great scenic view) you climb into a a clear tube, stand on a green metal plate where the operator instructs you to cross your legs and cross your hands over your chest, and then fully closes the clear tube door.   So now I'm standing in the tube anxiously awaiting the metal plate to drop out and the operator pauses before pushing the button...I think he does this for dramatic effect.  When the plate finally dropped out from under me I think I hyperventilated the whole way down.  Luckily I remembered right before I got to the splash pool at the bottom to hold my breath or I would have swallowed a mouth full.


 Cool view of the back of the boat and our trail when we were on our way home on Saturday.
 Love all the towel animals.  Every night the room steward leaves a different towel animal on your bed as they turn down your bed.
 Sky Chair Lift in Roatan that took us to the beach.  It was a great scenic view.





 Belize City was a tender port, which means the cruise ship can't dock at a land port because it's to shallow and would run aground.  So instead they drop anchor off the coast and tender us in on water taxis.  This is a view of a light house as I tendered into Belize on Wednesday.

 Brian and Darryl playing shuffle board.  They could spend 6 or 7 hours a 
day playing this if you let them.
 This was in Cozmel at the Dolphin landing.  
 First Formal night was Monday night.
