Our Christmas Cruise (FINALLY)




























This year for Christmas we went on a cruise with my Dad and Michelle and all the family and their special someones.. Our cruise went to Roatan Honduras, Belize , Costa Maya Mexico, and NCL private island in the Bahamas.
It was a super crazy Saturday when we left our flight was supposed to have everyone on it and we were all supposed to be making our first stop in JFK, NY but because of their massive snow storm that hit they had to mess around with every ones flights. We all were supposed to end up in Miami well.. we all ended up in Orlando in a hotel room for the night, and had to wake up the next morning and drive to Miami. But because of the amazing large number in our group it was actually cheaper to take a giant Escalade Limo than to rent enough cars for everyone to fit in. So we road in style :)
Honduras this was our first stop on the cruise it was a super rainy day and the plan was to go on an extreme zipline. The bus ride was kinda long... but when we got there they got us all harnessed up and put helmets on us which they told us when we piled into these small vans to go to the top of the zipline that they were for that car ride which i completely believe it was the most extreme off roading i have ever done, we even got stuck and ended up walking the rest of the way. At the very end of the zipline is where we met Nates monkey friend that wouldnt go to anyone else but him he basically claimed Nate as his property (he was a gay monkey) it made sense lol by the end of the visit with the monkey we pretty much wanted to bring him home with us


In Belize when we got off the ship we went and found a Cave Tubing Guide and told them we were gonna be a min because we needed to find the missionaries that were waiting for us we brought toys for the kids in Belize and brought them for the missionaries to take. The Guide was more than happy to help us he even went and got them for us. Then we were on our way we were headed to go Cave Tubing. So we hoped on a bus a drove for about 40 min. We stopped at all local convenient shop Nate got a Coke and i thought i was getting a Diet Coke but it was pretty much a Coke Zero :( When we got there we got in our swim suits got our tubes and hiked about 2 miles to our entry point in the river. Everything was beautiful! and cold.. being inside a cave meant there was no sun so it was pretty chilly. i wish we had pictures of some of these gorgeous caves but since we were in water it didn't work out that way.


Costa Maya Mexico, this day we were supposed to go out on two little boats and snorkel for awhile and then that boat was going to come back and one was going to stay out so the boys could go fishing. The water was REALLY choppy that day so for some it turned into a beach day which i was more than happy about! :) Nate, my Dad, AJ and Tiffany's husband Brent all decided they were going to go fishing anyways. Apparently Nate and Brent got a little sea sick they did catch one fish though my dear sweet hubby caught a lovely barracuda. When they got back and Nate felt a little better we went shopping on the walk way of the beach. Nate had fun talking people down with Trevor they were a pretty good team :)


NCL's private island, i wish i could tell you all about this fun private island but to be honest i didnt even get off the boat this day because it was rainy and cold.. we did stay and play with Austin and Madi on the slide Austin was loving that. Austin made a new friend with Nate him and Madi we going down the slide with him. I was going down the slide so slow i think the little kids were starting to yell at me.. lol


All in all it didn't feel like Christmas but it sure was alot of fun :)
