Here's Karen, hanging out |
Here we are on our one excursion for the entire cruise.
It's a deluxe beach break at the Blue Lagoon in Nassau. It was a pretty nice
beach, with a lot of hammocks and picnic tables and quiet places to hang
out.
 |
There was no one even close to us as we lazed away in our
hammocks and read. |
A lot of people got off the ship to come to this beach,
but it was amazingly un-crowded and peaceful.
 |
 |
Eventually we got hot and decided to go swimming.
 |
What an awesome day!
We hung out for a few hours, but then went back to the
ship early. That August sun is strong! Did not want to burn up on the first
day. |
There was a big roped-off area with giant inflatable toys
for kids to climb all over. A lifeguard was on constant patrol. We actually
got kicked out because we were in the roped-off area with no lifejackets.
 |
Someone took our picture for us. |
The water was very clear and calm.
 |
A lot more people showed up from a Carnival cruise ship,
but the place still did not feel crowded. |
This excursion included lunch, which was a burger or
chicken burger or hotdog and chips. It was a bit lame, but the beach
more than made up for the lunch. |
