bahama cruisin

the last two weeks were almost as intense as the massive sandstorm we drove back to las vegas in last night. we dropped our baby boy/puppy off and headed out to ft lauderdale to cruise with d&m through the bahamas. get ready for a lot of pictures....no for real. a lot.

 ready...set...go

first day we literally cruised around the entire island on our awesome scooter the husband thought was a motorcycle. we ended up in a shady shady part of town, snuck over to atlantis for lunch, explored our favorite beach, jaws beach, found a market with diet dr pepper, and got  back to the ship in time for some sock hoppin.

70s themed sock hop. 

they made me dress up as princess leia. the husband pulled stuff out of his closet and came up with this awesomeness. ha. 

ymca anyone?

 the weather was amazing. the first time the husband and i have ever been on a cruise together, and it was quite the experience cruising with over a thousand d&m fans. all i can say is, we made a lot of new memories:)

we got to explore cococay for a few hours before i had to get back to judge the talent show. the water was beyond pretty. we kayaked and swam as much as we could with the little time we had. i think i would be ok if i got stranded on an island, especially this one;)

no joke. 

not one but two sting rays came right up to us. the husband of course tried to grab it. umm...remember steve irwin? luckily it was too fast and swam away. and then to top that off, a real live reef shark swam right in between us. i wasn't even afraid. i thought i would be, because any time i go surfing i won't even let my feet dangle off my board in fear of sharks. this one was just a little guy though.
can you see him?
so freakin cool.
