Western Caribbean- Part I

I flew out on January 30 with my dear friend Cecily and her roommate Kelly.  We flew to Miami through Houston, hung out and slept at a hotel that night, and then boarded a bus to the port.  There were 45 singles in this year's group and the average age was 35!!!  I had a blast, very much needed vacation, and made some new friends (which was the whole point of going......well, that and sun and relaxation in the middle of the winter!).  This is the first vacation I've gone on where I haven't taken a gazillion pics!  I'm waiting on more from Cecily, but these are the few I have and some are stolen from others.   :)

 After 1 1/2 days at sea, we went to the beautiful islands of the Grand Cayman.  Of course we hit Stingray City, along with every other tourist in the area.  The locals who took us around in their boat rocked and even made us a conch salad.

I'm going to have to show my kids the pictures of you with the stingrays. We pet some at the St. Louis zoo last year and the kids were totally freaked out by it. I only ever really convinced Will to do it. And here you are hugging frolicking with them. You guys look great! And it looks like you had a ton of fun.

As a sidenote, I think it's hilarious that both you and Jazzy went on a singles cruise engaged.
