hey, hey, hey!!

hello everyone!

We are back from the cruise! It went by wayyy too fast, but we had an AWESOME time! I took over 350 pictures with my phone, and mom and terry took over 100 pictures with their camera! that's a LOT of pictures...here are some:


This is our ship, the Carnival Dream. It is currently their newest and largest ship. They are making two more ships after this one.


This is a picture of the multiple slides on the ship. One turns into a big bowl that you go around in 2-3 times. Terry came into the bowl so fast that he almost didnt stop haha


Terry and I on the 12th deck before we left Port Canaveral


Here is 1 of the pools that was in the middle of the ship, and the ginormous movie screen that they played concerts, movies, and very pretty scenery on. I watched Julie & Julia one night out there. So fun!


This is the view from the 10th deck down to the 3rd deck. There are four glass elevators to the left. They were really neat to ride in.


This is the sunrise on the very first morning after getting on the ship. We were so close to Nassau, Bahamas (about an hour or less away). You can't really tell, but there's a little bit of the island is the far, far distance lol just along the top of the water


We found this in one of the shop areas. Here's trev haha


THEY HAVE BURGER KING!!! lol


This is one of the pictures we took on the catamaran while we were on our way to the first snorkeling spot. I really thought that I would have freaked out about snorkeling in such deep water, but I LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!! Trevor freaked out a little at first because the guy basically threw him into the water before he was ready. He was fine after about 15 minutes, then it was like he was a natural and had been snorkeling for years! It was GREAT!


Here is the coral reef that we snorkeled over. There were tons of fish around it.


This is the beach we visited after snorkeling. Isn't it beautiful?


Look at how beautiful the water is! I wish I was still there...


FOUND A STARBUCKS!!!!

Mom and I at dinner...


Terry and I...


This is the casino on the ship. You are able to gamble at sea if you are 18 or older, so Terry gave me a $20 and I went to work. I played the penny slots first, but had to bet 20 cents each time. At one point I won up to $12.04 (+ the $20 I already had, so I was up to $32.04!), so I left that machine to go cash in. When I left the machine, I felt like I wanted to play some more so I found some different machines to play at. At a different one, I had got down to 50 cents (I had lost almost EVERYTHING!), but this machine was really cool. There were 5 reels or whatever they are, and if you got BONUS on two reels, they locked those and let the other three spin once to see if you could get one or more BONUS's. If you got another BONUS, the machine gave you FIFTEEN FREE SPINS! how awesome is that? So I just so happened to get 15 extra spins (plus some since I got a couple more BONUS's in those 15 spins). In the end, I ended up winning $12.96 cents :) pretty good for a first timer, especially since I was down so much!


Here is a picture I took of the picture we had taken after dinner one night. We clean up nicely if you ask me!


The back of the ship while we were sailing. The second pool was located back here. Both pools were salt water pools


Here we are pulling into St. Thomas on the fourth day of our trip!


YEA, MON!!


WENDYS!!!!! lol


Ok, this guy totally saw me taking a picture, so he decides to step in and pick his nose....awesome.


Here is a really great picture of our entire ship. we were a couple miles from the port and there was an open area for people to go to the ocean so I took a picture :)


The kids here were still in school here.


You're Welcome! :)


Pulling into St. Maarten. There are two sides to this extremely small island: the Dutch side (where they spell it St. Maarten) and the French side (where they spell it St. Martin). The island is 37 square miles, with the Dutch side being the smaller of the two sides.


Welcome the St. Maarten :)


Everything in this shop is made out of bamboo! sheets for your bed, shirts, towels, etc.


Tommy Hilfiger


Polo Ralph Lauren


A cute hotel


MCDONALDS!!! I saw it about a mile away :) lol it was two stories long. I got a kit kat mcflurry. They didn't mix it up like we do here, and they added a layer of hot fudge under the kit kat pieces lol it was YUMMY!!!! Oh, and they sold Beer here, and chicken wings lol


Haagen-Daz <3


Lacoste


an AWESOME candy store. Everything was 3cents/gram, and he had EVERYTHING!!!


The picture doesn't do it justice, but this lizard was big! lol


Mom and Terry on our last snorkeling trip


This is the sail that was on our catamaran


Mine and Trevor's room. It had NO windows so unless I set an alarm, we never knew what time it was! lol


A pretty sunset. I took this on the serenity deck. That was the "Adults Only" deck. It was very pretty!


I found out that I can FLOAT!!!!! I'm a terrible floater lol


It was Trevor's birthday the last day we were on the ship, so mom suprised him by ordering a cakem and they delivered it to him during our dinner. Our waiter made him ears our of this napkin and put it on his head lol


When we got back to Florida, mom and Terry agreed to take me to DOWNTOWN DISNEY!!!! yayyyyyyy!! my very favorite part of the whole trip hahaha


ALRIGHT!!!! that's a lot of pictures for you guys to check out so let me know what you think of them!! :)
