Western Caribbean Cruise NCL January 2012

I am still a little behind in getting these posted--but I am trying to catch up!

In January we decided we were ready for another cruise!  Really, I am ready for a cruise at any time.  It doesn't take much to talk me into it.  I really think they are the best vacation for groups!  No stress!

Roger had a seminar in Fort Myers.  So we flew in with Robert and Sydney.  Mom and Gary came the next day.  They brought Cassidy with them.  She had a play at school and couldn't come any earlier.  My aunt and Uncle, Sandra and Gary also came with us!  It really was fun!  7 day cruise stopping in Costa Maya, Belize, Roatan and Cozumel!

Roger with his "cruise"  hat!  The only time I will let him wear it!

 One of my favorite parts!  Lying around on deck.  We always wear our swim suits on board.  It may be hours before our luggage gets to our room and we want to start playing!

This was the highlight of our time on Roatan!  We did a tour of the island.  We stopped at a monkey farm and got in the cages with the monkey's.  

Roger loved it!

 It took Sandra and I to warm up to the idea of getting in the cages with them.  But we figured, when would we have the opportunity to do it again.  So in we went.

Syd wanted nothing to do with the monkey's, but they were on to her.  Eventually, our guide gave her enough peer pressure, she caved and went in..

I would have to say, that is is Syd's favorite part of the cruise.  Dressing up for dinner and being waited on hand and foot!

So when we cruise, we go the cheapest route!  Which means inside cabin.  This one was literally wall to wall bed at night.  In the morning the would put the bunk up and slide Cassidy's bed under ours.  We were a little cramaped!

We took the kids cave tubing in Belize.  Roger and I had done it before and we really wanted the kids to experience it.  They had a blast.  Sorta reminded me of the jungle cruise.

In Costa Maya we just got off and shopped around.  However, there was this big pool in the center of the shopping area! 

Roger always tries to counter balance the meals--it does NOT work!

Waiting for the show on "White Night"

We had a great time!  We did have a few hiccups the last night when Cassidy stayed out past curfew with some friends she met on the ship.  We were not happy parents as we were looking for her in the wee hours of the morning.  There is a lot of ship to look through--but we finally found her!

We can't wait to go on our next cruise.  Unbelievable, we don't have anything scheduled yet.  Our cruise buddies (Ryan and Heather) have decided to have another baby so we are patiently waiting until they can go again.  We are firm believers in cruising with friends and family!
