Happy New year!!!!! Okay - I know it's already January 21, but I am always behind the eight ball! You know that! So, over Winter Break, Grandma and Grandpa Wood took us on a little adventure. We cruised the Western Caribbean on board one of the Carnival Fun Ships. We went to Grand Cayman, Honduras, Belize and Cozumel! We had a great time and with the exception of Mike's stomach, we all loved every minute.
Nothing like a giant sombrero and a good shaved ice....
Or a tiny sombrero and a couple of dolphins!! We know how to bust it!
Carley with one of her own kind in Honduras!
These Scarlet Macaws where amazing! They were just flying around in the forest like they were sparrows or something.
The guide warned us not to wear or hold anything that we didn't want to lose! This little guy really wanted my earrings. He chewed on one for a bit and the trainer had to pull him off me! I forgave the little monkey because he was adorable!
Don't you think he could pick up a lot of chicks (excuse the pun) with one of these on his shoulder? Stud + parrot = CHICK MAGNET! Especially with the muscle tee.
This is my little piratess! She went to a pirate party on the boat and the black make-up just wouldn't come off! Oh well, she is still pretty cute.
LIZZY WANTS ONE!!!!!
Autumn loved this little guy! It took awhile to convince her to hold it, but she got brave and did it!
Stud + Green Sea Turtle = Green Studtle!!!!
This was the kids favorite activity. We went to the Turtle Farm in Grand Cayman. They raise Green Sea Turtles for FOOD!!! EEWWW! According to our guide, turtle is like chicken or hamburger. The Grand Caymians eat it on a daily basis. In order to preserve the wild population, these guys raise turtles to sell for mass consumption. They are just too cute to eat!!
This is what Hell looks like apparently...didn't think it would be filled with my cute family!!
