Keep reading to hear all about this amazing week.... (: Get ready for LOTS of pictures!!
We left Saturday night about 5:30ish to head to Vegas to catch our red-eye flight. We had about an hour layover in NYC then flew to Puerto Rico. Luckily both Jase and I slept pretty good during the flights but by no means did we feel rested when we finally made it to San Juan. We headed straight to the cruise ship and then straight to our rooms to sleep. (I think that's how it always goes when we do cruises...travel, check in, sleep, get up and go to dinner).
Monday: {Saint Thomas}
Today we got off the ship and it was SO bright. We all seriously were blinded and could barely open our eyes. It was PLENTY warm and we decided to head over to Coki Beach. There was some awesome snorkeling there. Literally the fish are just steps away from shore. We had fish bait that we would hold out in our hand and the fish would come right up and nibble on it. That was pretty cool. We also played volleyball with some other people from the cruise ship for a good hour or so. Pretty sure ALL our shoulders were fried after that. When it was time to head back to the ship we found our driver and started heading that direction. Don't worry, there was SO much traffic. We were basically at a dead stop and long story short...everyone was freaking out that we weren't going to make it back to the ship but luckily we made it just in time.
Seriously could the water be any prettier?? |
Tuesday: {Sea Day}
Wednesday: {Barbados}
This was my FAVORITE island and day! It was seriously amazing! I'd love to go back to this island and stay there. (Who am I kidding..I'd go back to ANY of these amazing islands but especially this one).
We got a driver to take us ALL OVER the island. We really got to see a good chunk of Barbados and it was perfect. We saw the house where Rihanna grew up, where the PGA Golf Tour was played, where Tiger Woods got married, Rihannas condo she bought, and more. The driver took us to see some amazing views and then we ended at the beach where we went snorkeling, swam with sea turtles, and saw ship wreck. AHHH it was just a perfect day.

Thursday: {Saint Lucia}
Today was a LONG but good day. We got a driver to take us all over the island again. This island is SO pretty its breathtaking. We got to see where both Pirates of the Caribbean and The Bachelor were filmed. We also saw The Pitons, went on a short "hike" to a waterfall, and drove some more. It was so green everywhere and just so beautiful.

Friday: {Saint Kitts}
In Saint Kitt's we had another beach day. Of course we did some snorkeling here and we also rented some paddle boards to entertain us. This was such a relax/chill day. It was perfect.
Saturday: {Saint Martin}
Last
stop of the cruise. So sad that it was coming to an end. This was one
of the best weeks of my life. We had another beach day today. We jumped
on the tramp in the ocean, swam, and looked at the shops (oh and a lot
of bare butts...yes there was a nude beach just down from us. We tried
our best to avoid this BUT the people kept coming to our beach..haha). I
swear the sunscreen that we bought this day....DID NOT WORK! It did
exactly the opposite of what it is supposed to do...We all looked like
lobsters after this day.
See what I mean when I say this will be one of my favorite trips EVER! Like how could you top this amazing week? (;
