Day 2: Half Moon Cay, Bahamas

We arrived at Half Moon Cay, Bahamas early Monday morning. There are no words to describe how wonderful this island is. Carnival actually owns this part of the island, but it was beyond amazing. All I wanted to do on this entire trip was to relax, get away from "life" for a few days, soak up some sun rays, and have a great time. That is just what we did in the Bahamas. It was perfect. The weather couldn't have been any better, the crystal clear blue water was amazing, and the sand was perfect.
Here are a couple pictures of the beautiful sunrise!


A view of our ship, Carnival Glory, from our tender boat going to the island of Half Moon Cay. :)

Julie and I decided to go exploring and see what we could find. And yes, we found several photo ops! So much fun! :)

My girl, Julie!













Julie and Rachel pretty much wanting to stay in the Bahamas lol

And Sarah, Venita and I are right behind them! We did NOT want to leave this wonderful island!

As we were standing under the "I wish I could stay here forever" sign, we were listening to the Bahamian live band! Loved it!!

I love this view of the ship!!



Back on the ship...this was dinner that night...appetizer was a chicken and bean quesadila

And the main course was pork...soo yummy!

Or...I think this was salmon..one of the other choices.

Joy was dancing along with our waiters at dinner that night! LOL

Later that night, we went up deck and hung out for awhile. It was soooo windy that night! You could lean against the wind and it would hold you up! Hmmm this was the night that I officially got the nickname, "Hairspray". LOL


We came back to our room to this cute little towel animal! :)
