Cruising 2011

As a graduation celebration we decided to partake in our first cruise (it is another item off our bucket list). We cruised with Carnival and travelled to 4 different destinations in the Western Caribbean.

Here is our ship - the Carnival Legend.

Matt got me a new sun hat:)
our last day on the ship
on our last evening, on the ship, before dinner we were watching the sunset and all of a sudden a pod of dolphins began to jump beside our boat - it was a magical moment - almost felt like we were in a movie (sorry - no pics of the dolphins - you will have to take my word for it!)
our dinner friends for the week - honeymooners from Florida
our waiters for the week - they were GREAT!
we had a day a couple of hours after our cruise in Tampa before our plane took off - we decided to visit the aquarium
Matt playing with some with the starfish
we loved our time away - we had a great time relaxing and spending time together!
