Bahamas, here we come!

Thursday morning Aaron and I got up around 6, and headed to Orlando to pick up Tyler and Jenny. We were some of the first people to get to the boat, and from parking to actually being on the boat only took around 20 minutes! It was a pretty nice boat, a little retro though. Everything was neon, or sparkles or stuff like that. It was fun though! The first day we just relaxed, and Aaron and I got hot rock massages. All I can say is mmmm. It was so nice! We missed the dinner, but it was well worth it! We sailed through the night and got to Nassau, Bahamas on Friday morning around 8:30. We got off the boat and went shopping in the downtown area, and just looking around. We found Aaron a great watch! The poor lady that helped us though, she had to be so sick of me! I'd pick a watch, she'd get it out, Aaron would put it on, I wouldn't like it, she's put it back, and we'd start all over again! It took probably 15 different watched before we found one that I liked ( I know, I'm picky, but it looks good!) and then we headed back to the boat area for our excursion. We boarded a ferry to go to Blue Lagoon Island to play with the Dolphins. It was about a 20 minute ferry ride, and the water was gorgeous! It was so crystal clear you could see to the bottom. I could see rocks and sand and figured we were probably only 15 to 20 feet deep, and then I found out the water was almost 100 feet deep! It was so pretty!



We had a lot of fun playing with the dolphins, and got some great pics!
We actually bought the dvd of us dancing with, feeding, and being kissed by the dolphin, but I'm pretty sure you don't want to see that much of us in swimsuits! It was really fun though.

We were there for about 4 hours and then headed back to the main island to get ready for the formal dinner. It was really fun, and we all showed up with matching outfits! Apparently black and white are great colors for the Weech family!


It was a very fun dinner, full of duck, lobster tail, shrimp, pumpkin soup, and lots of dessert!
Those aren't all my desserts, I really was sharing with Aaron, but everything was so good we all ordered at least 2 or 3 desserts!

It was a great day for everyone! Saturday was our "fun day at sea", where we all just hung out, ate lots of food, played card games, watched Batman and Robin ( all 6 kids piled on the bed in Jenny and Tyler's room, it was pretty fun, but kinda squishy!) and had a great time!
