Cruise to The Bahamas- May 2010

We recently returned from our cruise to the Bahamas.  To do a true "post" about it would be too long so here are just a few of the more important happenings...
Poogan's Porch (Charleston, SC)... had a ghost encounter.  Place is 3rd most haunted place in USA and very active.  Dining table came 1-2 inches off of ground, slammed back to the floor, shook the silverware, and table cloth blew in the non-existent wind.  Scary!  Stayed in the "round hotel"- Holiday Inn Riverview.  Rained the whole time we were in Charleston...  Boarded the boat.  One of the first on board.  Amazing.  Saw a dolphin and some rays while we were waiting to sail out.  First two days at sea.  Lots of relaxing.  Hairy chest contest.  Ice carving by the pool.  Met two other couples at dinner.  Third day spent in Freeport, Bahamas.  Went to the Straw Market.  Rode a catamaran.  Snorkeled in the rain.  Fourth Day spent in Nassau, Bahamas.  Spent the day at the Atlantis.  AMAZING.  Loved all of the water slides, pool, and beach.  Especially loved the "Rapids" lazy river.  Spent probably 4 hours in it.  Walked around shops close to port.  Didn't buy much.  Saw two girls miss their boat.  Felt sorry for them.  For a minute.  Last day spent at sea... got lots of sun- very tan!  Throughout the trip...Greeted by towel animals every night on our bed after dinner.  LOVED them!  Played lots of bingo.  Our waiters at dinner were Arie and Ruel.  We had one formal night and I was reminded how hot my husband is in a suit (and always!).  Our room number was U117.  Jason got to go on stage and be the juggler's assistant.  Got to see lots of pretty sunsets.  The boat had a 24/7 pizzeria and soft serve ice cream machine.  "Ca-Caw!"  "Raise the ceiling"... "Hot Dog"... "no ketchup- too much sugar".  "Hey, that guy looks like the villain off of The Incredibles"!  Danced the night away at the disco- Brought back memories of our first few months together.  Fell in love with my husband even more than ever.  Ready to go again!
