Only 6 Months Later...

The rest of our cruise pictures. FINALLY. I am so ecstatic that we have our camera back (well, let's be honest...who cares about the camera itself! I just wanted the pictures.) but now it means that I am forced to look at pictures of warm, sunny, tropical places that I would love to visit again. And I know that, even though it doesn't really feel like Fall yet, we are headed to COLD WEATHER any day now.

I really wish these were back with the other pictures from our trip, but since I recently printed a blog book, I guess I am stuck with them being completely out of order so they get in the next book!

First up: Roatan, Honduras!

 Yeah...I had gotten a little bit of sun! :)

I LOVE this picture! John's sunburned feet, and Archer's crack showing. Hilarious!

Even funnier that Archer still had his pirate face paint on from Kid's Club. He refused to let us wash his face, so he had a mustache. 

The kids loved these little crabs that would bury themselves in the sand.

The beach that we wandered on to was perfect for the kids. It was really shallow for a ways out, and it was so calm that the boys were all snorkeling around in the water without making me panic!

First stop: Roatan Honduras

Like I said before, we pretty much booked this cruise for the itinerary. The first two stops were the ones I was looking forward to the most (Honduras and Belize). 

In Roatan, we rented a jeep and had a beach day, did a little exploring, and spent some time shopping. We found a nice little beach that we had to ourselves for pretty much the entire time. The boys loved it so much they didn't want to leave. As we got back to the port, we ALMOST decided to go zip-lining, but we thought it might be too much to cram in to our day. 

Roatan was beautiful, the people seemed friendly, and we decided that it was a place that we would want to vacation at for a longer amount of time...

...then, we heard after we got home that a Norwegian crew member was killed there in an attempted robbery just a few days after we left...and I started researching and saw how high the crime rate is...now I'm not sure. I never felt unsafe. But maybe I should have? I don't know. 

Before Archer fell asleep!

And after...poor B!
