Keeping up with the Jordon's: Anniversary Get-Away

In July, Kyle and I were lucky enough to go on a five day cruise to celebrate our 11th Anniversary. We really didn't get to do anything special for our 10th last July because Luke was so young. So, I insisted we had to do something this year! Grandparents were gracious and watched our little ones while we were away (even if we kind of forced them into it).

Day 1: (at Sea)

Our cruise actually set sail on our anniversary, July 20th. Here we are that night at dinner!

We had a great time just getting to eat and talk without any interruptions :)

Day 2: (at Sea)

I started the day off at the spa to get a very relaxing fire and ice pedicure. We spent most of the day laying out by the pool, eating all the yummy, and just enjoying all the fun activities the ship has to offer!

Day 3: (Progresso, Yucatan)

We decided to take an excursion to a private beach club this day. Here we are waiting to for our bus to arrive. We spent a few hours there enjoying the beach, eating lunch, kayaking, a massage, and just relaxing!

Toes in the sand, love it!

Day 4: Cozumel, Mexico

On our way to Dolphinarius! We had a great time swimming with the dolphins at this beautiful place. We got to kiss the dolphins, hug them, dance with them, and take a ride on them. It was a really neat experience! Unfortunately, they don't let you take any pictures yourself and the ones they took were really expensive and poor quality.

Here's a picture of Dolphinarius! So beautiful!

After we swam with the dolphins, they fed us a yummy lunch. Kyle and I decided to take a taxi to Paradise Beach rather than going back to the ship right away. I am so glad we did; it was a free beach and was absolutely gorgeous!

The water in Cozumel is so clear! We had fun on the water trampolines and water slides! Before we boarded the ship we did a little shopping at the pier and bought a few souvenires for the kids.

Our day in Cozumel just went by too fast. We would love to go back and spend several days there!

Day 5: (at Sea)

We enjoyed our last day away by relaxing again (notice a trend here). We found a nice shady part of the ship and read books, took naps, and just enjoyed the peace and quiet. It was great!
