Carribean Cruise

Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas
This island had a great beach to swim and relax at. Dave and I enjoyed a perfect day in the sun. We also had a great time on the boat listening to live jazz music, broadway tunes, and seeing great dancers and acrobats.

St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands

This was our favorite spot. It had beautiful vistas, lush foliage, and many activities. Megan's Bay is rated one of the top ten beaches in the world by National Geographic. We took a senic tour on a safari bus to see all the sites and then did a little window shopping. Dave has mentioned that we could come back here for our 10th anniversary. I will start planning today.

Tortola, British Virgin Islands

Tortola was absolutely beautiful. We rented a car and toured the island. Dave successfully drove on the left side of the road around 300 degree turns up 45% hills with a map that did not have street names. We loved the mountains and ocean. We were planning on hiking at Sage Mt. National Park however we could not because of strong winds and rain. We had a great time and would love to go back.

Samana, Dominican Republic

This was Luke's first excursion over 12 foot waves in a small and fast speed boat. We took the boat to the private island below. It was beautiful, but Luke was worn out by the end of the trip.

Happy 2nd Birthday Luke!

Luke had a great time seeing family for his second birthdy. He loved opening his presents. He got a yard set including a rake, shovel, chain saw, leaf blower, weed trimmer, goggles, and gloves. He also got a garbage truck, cute clothes, and some really good books. In the picture with Grandma and Grandpa, Luke has his camping supplies. He got a life preserver for boat rides and his own camp chair. We love having a two year old.
