We adventured off during each port of call so that we could really explore the island. At our first docking, Nassau, we took a small boat over to a private island and enjoyed peace, tranquility, and great conversation with the locals. It was a holiday for schools in the Bahamas (Easter Monday), so many children were there.
The locals enjoyed sand volleyball and sand soccer.
Nearby dolphins and sea lions were a popular attraction.
Afterwards, we walked around Nassau a while and decided to purchase a few things: a local coconut, tshirts, Oakley sunglasses, magnets, etc.
Eric had to get his picture in front of Senior Frogs.
As is customary on a cruise vacation, the dinner cusine is one of the highlights. This is one criteria of the kids: meet us for dinner. After that, we usually don't give a curfew.
My favorite menu item each night: a molten lava chocolate cake. It was sooooo good, and the 5 pounds I gained can be attributed to just this one dessert. I ordered it all 5 nights.
