Day at Sea and Cozumel

We really enjoyed our days at sea. It was relaxing and nice doing what we wanted without a schedule. Paul and I would wake up to workout a bit while Sofia played in the Oceaneer's Club. Of course, Jessica would still be sleeping from staying up late the night before. I attended the art auction while Paul had a chance to visit with his parents. We took Sofia to the pool and Jessica met up with her friends. We had dinner and hungout until it was time for bed.

Our day in Cozumel was fun! I enjoy being in a Spanish speaking country. It's nice for me because I understand everything and get a chance to speak some. Paul and I have been to Cozumel before, but we usually just shop. This time, we decided to go to the beach with the girls. The water was a little chilly, but it was fun playing in the sand. We found some friendly parrots in the bar and shopped on the way back to the ship. We were excited to see a Starbucks and the bargains were nice, too!

Key West and Evening On Ship

Well, we spent the first day of our cruise in Key West, Florida. We hadn't been there before, so we were excited to see it. Our first stop was a visit to the local aquarium. We had a great tour and enjoyed seeing the sealife. We even got to touch a nurse shark and a baby alligator. Paul really enjoyed holding the alligator. Afterwards, we walked around and did some shopping. My in-laws showed us where the most southern point in the US was. Then, we walked past Ernest Hemingway's house and the beginning and ending of Route 1, which goes all the way to Maine. It was a beautiful day!

Our Ship!

We went back to the ship and took Sofia swimming. She tried going down the Mickey slide all by herself! After dinner, Sofia saw so many characters! We stood in line to take pictures. She had a blast meeting her favorite Disney characters and Princesses. Of course, it's the best thing about being on the Disney ship!
