I know I havent been active for the last week, but there is a good reason.... Internet connections are VERY expencive aboard the Carnival Cruise Ship, "Ecstacy", which just spent the last few days cruising the Bahama Islands.
My lovely wife Cathie, arranged for us to spend my 50th Birthday (05/05/63) on the ocean and stopping at Nassau and Half Moon Cay in the Bahamas.
I thought I'd share a few of the pics from my camra. these pics are mainly from the 4th and the 5th. The pics I took on the 3rd, I have to get developed because they are on a waterproof camra and are from The Blue Lagoon on a differant Island around Nassau.
Here is our Ship the Ecstacy. it is anchored about a mile off the beach at Half Moon Cay. we where shuttled to and from the ship by sight-seeing ferrys.
Here it is again from my beach chair!
...and this is how I felt about it!
Johnathan Livingston Seagull I presume (read the book...)
My snorkling trip to the reef was cancelled due to choppy seas, so I had to make due with snorkling in the swimming area.... sigh... I REALLY wanted to snorkle on a reef!
Sunrise on my Birthday. Sunday, May 5th @ 6:30am
My B-day Dinner... (Honey Glazed Game Hen)
My B-day Champain. Dom Perignon 2003. (Funny Story... I brought a bottle of Dom Perignon 1998 that I have been saving for just this occation, but they messed up and served me the 2003. Afterward they gave me back my 1998 and had to comp me the $200 bottle of 2003 because of thier mistake!) Now I have to find another event to open my 1998 vintage....sigh
My beautiful wife, Cathie.
....and yours truely....
All and all, it was a GREAT trip and I would recommend Carnival Cruise Line to any one wanting to visit the Islands!
