In Florida we went out to eat at this yummy sushi restaurant and then we drove around town. We drove past this place that was renting scooters and decided to rent two. They were a blast!! We only had a few minor mishaps! The next morning we went to the beach before our ship left and just hung out.
Sunday we boarded royal caribbean's freedom of the seas. That day we rode on the flow rider and ate dinner. It was that night that we met our awesome waiters rodson and hemsley! They were both hilarious! Rodson was ADHD and would walk away from the table mid sentence if there was something going on. Hemsley was more timid but always had a smile on his face! We loved them! That night we went to a broadway show and that night went to a comedian.
The next day was spent all day at sea. We relaxed by the pool most of the day And had our first formal night that night.
The next morning we arrived on a private island labadee Haiti. It was gorgeous!! We spent the day playing in the ocean and rented mats to relax in the water. The cruise ship provided a yummy lunch and me and Angie experienced our first shopping experience on the island. It was quite the experience of "come into my shop and I show you one thing." Pretty fun though! That night we went to a magic show on the ship with an illusionist from America's got talent, drew Thomas.
The next morning we arrived in Jamaica. Jared was looking forward to this the most. We had an excursion planned for Dunn river falls. We rode a bus to ochos rios where Jared cuddled with our tour guide Zoe. Ha ha!! We hiked the falls and then stopped for some Jamaican jerk chicken. When we got back in town we found this boy that wanted to show us around town. His name was twain. He took us around town, to his school and to the beach. There were locals there fishing and even a couple smoking a joint. Ha! After the beach we went into town to find some souvenirs.
The next day we went to grand cayman. We got an a boat and headed to sting ray city. It was a blast! Angie and I were scared out of our minds every time they came close to us but eventually we warmed up to them and actually held them! On the way back we got dropped off at seven mile beach. Grand cayman was by far the prettiest place we had ever been! The sand was white and so soft and the water was turquoise!! We loved it! Me and Angie swam while Jared and Tyler snorkeled.
The next day was our last at Cozumel. We didn't have anything planned that day and were immediately bombarded with people offering different excursions. We decided to go snorkeling and were taken out to swim with all the fish. It was fun! Angie drove the boat out which was a little scary. We got dropped off at San Francisco beach. We spent a lot of our time at a restaurant with wi-fi so we could talk to our brinklee. We did a little swimming and then more shopping.
Our last day was spent at sea. We laid around by the pool for most of the day. Jared and Tyler played in the guest versus staff volleyball game. We went to the casino and played a little roulette but we were just ready to get home! We got back Sunday night and were so glad to see our brinklee!! She was with Jared's parents and my parents while we were gone. She was a little hesitant when she first saw us but quickly warmed up. She showed us her new trick- standing up on her own and taking a couple steps and someone taught her the cheesiest grin that she kept flashing us! We had such a great time! It was out first cruise and our first big vacation since our honeymoon! We can't say enough good about royal Caribbean! The room was super nice, the staff great and the food was awesome! It was a great escape!!
