Days 6,7,& 8

 Day 6 we headed to Caymans place the Cayman Islands. We were so excited to take her here. We found a bunch of stores to  shop in and found a Burger King to eat at. The money there is a lot more than the other countries. Our dollar only was worth .80 cents.  Everything was more expensive.

 We had booked an excursion for a Pirate ship adventure.  Cooper thought it was so cool.

   We boarded the Pirate ship and got some beverages to drink then we headed out to sea.  The pirates made the kids scrub the deck and they tied up a dad. They poured ice water on him a few times.  Then they made you take an oath and made you a pirate. Then they made you walk he plank into the Caribbean Sea.  That was fun. Cory jumped first, then Cayman, then me.  Cooper stayed up with grandma. We swam for a while in the sea then Cooper wanted to join us.  He came in for a minute then was done. We had a fun time and then shopped some more and got Cayman a bunch of Cayman Island stuff.  I got a hoodie and hat, Cory got a shirt, and Cooper got another pirate shirt.

 That night  Cooper had steak again and our Waiter Suka made Cayman a towel animal.

Day 7 was at sea.  The cruise was coming to an end. It was such an amazing trip.  We went swimming that morning then the kids went to camp to play with fun ship Freddy.  We packed up our room and that night we had our last dinner with Suka. He really was a cute and nice guy.  Copper got his steak, Cayman had her pasta, and I had my melting cake.  Yummy!  The kids went to camp after dinner and made t- shirts they could paint and wear. They really had so much fun at camp and it was a great place for the kids to play and meet other kids.  We loved Camp Carnival. It was a great reassurance that we could leave them to have fun so we could have grown up time.  We went with Connie to the karaoke lounge and she got up and sang 2 Christmas songs. It was fun to sing along.  That night we had last treats of ice cream, pineapple and soda.
 Suka was a great waiter on this cruise. He has a 4 year old boy from Indonesia and he is here for 6 months on the boat. This was his first week. He was a favorite! Loved our kids.

 Last dinner on the ship and I had to eat my Melting cake. I had this every night.

 Connie got up and did Karaoke at the club. It was great.

 Kids last night of snacks.

 Day 8  we got up and ate breakfast then waited for our number to be called to disembark. We rented a car and found an Everglade boat ride in Coopertown, Florida.  How funny we went to the Cayman Islands for Cayman and Coopertown for Cooper. We got to ride in an airboat and we saw about 5 alligators.  After the tour we got to hold a baby gator and that was fun. We headed to our hotel after that and I took the kids swimming outside.  We were flying out the next morning. We had such a great adventure and made some really great memories. What a wonderful vacation.

 

 After our fun adventure it was time to head home.We had been gone for 10 days and it was time to sleep in our own beds. We will for sure do another Cruise again. Loved it!

 Here we are at the Memphis airport.
