R&R - gotta love it!

Just some quick photos from our recent trip...

Our home for 4 nights, the Carnival Fascination

Formal night, Christmas night, onboard

big bad 'gator, seen closeup on airboat tour

Bill (a co-worker of Greg's) and his racing sailboat

Sailing on Bill's boat - yes I was the skipper - steering!
Greg helped with the sails, as well as being photographer

Miami from the water - a beautiful city

Miami Beach, looking towards South Beach

Looking relaxed and happy

3 nights on Miami Beach - ahhhhh....


The weather couldn't have been better, 80 or more and mostly sunny every day.

The 4 night cruise was as expected, good food, great shows, relaxing... and we actually hit some of the bars at night after the shows! We stopped at Key West and Cozumel, both of which we had been to before, so we just wandered around the towns.

Back on land, we went to the Everglades for an airboat tour - we saw several alligators and other wildlife. We went sailing with Greg's coworker Bill - he was chairing a huge regatta fundraiser (over 650 participants under the age of 18!) that same day, so he showed us around, explained about the different sailboats, and then we saw the kids racing on the water too. Very cool! And what we had planned on doing - we relaxed in the sun. 3 nights on Miami Beach - awesome.
