Cruise 2012 Finale!

Day 5 was in St. Marten which was one of our favorite stops.  The downtown is so colorful and lively.  The beach we went to was called Orient Beach and was so much fun!




















St. Marten has water taxis that you take from downtown back to the cruise ship.  So much fun!

Dinner that night.


Our nightly surprise was a monkey hanging from the ceiling.

Day 6 was spent in St. Croixx.  


Of course we headed to the beach.  The beach was called Cane Bay. 

We ate lunch at a restaurant across the street from the beach.  The name of the restaurant was just called eat.

The guys did a little snorkeling.

 Final dinner on the ship



Our two dinner tables all week.

It was Erin's birthday on Saturday so they brought her a chocolate cake and we all sang Happy Birthday to her!  

Saying good-bye to Zola!  

That's all folks!

The trip was amazing!  Bryan and I hesitated about going because we were not sure how we would do away from Will for a week and how Will would do staying with Nana that long period of a time.  We booked the cruise before Will joined our family so it was a tough decision on whether to go or cancel.  Looking back on it now, I am so glad we decided to go.  Bryan and I had so much fun together and with our friends.  Some moments were really hard because we missed Will so much but he was fine and it did us some good to get away.  But I can assure that he will come with us on our next big trip!
