Honeymoon- Destination: Miami and The Bahamas

So for our honeymoon we went to Miami and from there on a cruise to The Bahamas... and it was awesome!


We ate at Bubba Gumps (If you haven't eaten there before it is highly recommended that you do). In January we stopped drinking soda and eating donuts (to be healthy of course) and we decided that on our honeymoon we could eat/drink whatever we wanted. So being the huge Dr. Pepper fan I am and being a Bubba Gumps I had to get one. It would have been wrong not to right?


Here is Dave waiting for his freshly made to order mini donuts... they were delicious.


This guy was a one man band and when we stopped to listen he played us a special song... The Wedding March. He was so cute.

The was our ship... The Norwegian Sky.


We stopped at The Grand Bahama Island and we did a 12.5 mile bike ride around the island. It was fun to see the culture and explore for a while.

We ate lunch at the Botanical Gardens. They were beautiful!

The next day we went to the island of Nassau and we swam with the dolphins. Our dolphin's name was Goombay. Did you know that they can swim on their backs up to 30 mph? I didn't...

We stopped at a touch tank and touched some cool stuff. There's nothing like picking up a shell and having something crawl out of it...
Especially this guy... gross
We ordered a lot of room service because 1) is free and 2) it's 24 hours... so if you want fruit, fries and chicken wings at all hours of the night you know where to call... (we may be guilty of that)

We then had a 6 hours wait at the Miami airport. What do you do in an airport for 6 hours? Ask Dave...
If you have never been on a cruise you are missing out... it makes for a perfect vacation. Dave confessed to me the other day that he was "homesick" to go on another one... I told him that we would have to change that soon. Anyone want to come with us?
