2nd Port of Call - Grand Cayman!!!

We arrived at Grand Cayman at 7:00am March 5th!
Mr. "S" and I had to be off the ship by 7:30 to get in line for our excursion:
4x4 JEEPADVENTURE WITH LUNCH
The Grey Goose! Our Jeep for the day!
Morgan’s Harbor - Dolphin Cove

The morning sky at Dolphin Cove
Barkers National Park
Some of Grand Caymans coral
Us in our jeep! We were back seating it! We were on our way to sample some Tortuga Rum & Rum Cakes!!!
As I was standing here waiting for Mr. "S" to "SNAP" the shot - a huge wave came up and soaked my backside!!! This one lady on our jeep tour snapped the pic just as I was covered in water! Needless to say you could see right through my white shorts! It was time to change and put my swim suite on!!!
Sooooooooooo PRETTY!!!
This is what they call Hell in the Grand Cayman's!!!

Toes in the sand - make me think of THIS song!
Our ship!
Pretty Pretty Pretty Blue Water!!!!!!
Look how we got back on our ship....holy moly! Crazy!!! =)
The ships can't pull into Grand Cayman because of the reefs - so you have to taxi to the dock!!! So cool!!! I would have NEVER thought!!!

Jibberjabber.......

I have been neglecting my blog something awful! I've also been neglecting my bloggy friends! Please be patient with me...I'm so swamped at work, at home and at my part-time job! It just seems there aren't enough hours in the day!

I still have a TON of cruise pictures to blog about!
I wanted to do a small post on each port we stopped at which was Jamaica, Grand Cayman and Cozumel! So be on the look out for those pictures!

I started my part time job last weekend! Well, actually I started it a while back bu this weekend was the first weekend I was on the floor as a cashier. They threw me to the wolves - they put me down in lumber on the contractors end. Wow-Wee was I ever wore out when I got home! I worked 10-7 on Saturday and 9-6 on Sunday! This weekend I work 1-10 and 10-7! I'm excited about the 1-10 - that means I get to sleep in - for once in forever!!!

I have some WONDERFUL news! I'm soooooooooooooooo excited I actually WON something in bloggy land!!! =) I haven't won anything in long. long, long time!!! Do you remember me blogging about my friend Kristin's giveaway? She was excited about her 500th post so she was giving away a $25 Target Gift Card! I entered and WON!!!! You can click HERE to see the giveaway and you can click HERE to see where I won!!!! =) Congrats to me!!! Congrats to me!!! I'm so EXCITED!!! I know I will FIND something for sure!!! Target has some GREAT spring and summer clothes, a huge selection of flip flops PLUS Mr. "S" and I are registered there for our wedding. So there might just be something on the list that I don't get - that I really need!!! We'll just have to wait and see how I spend it!!! Thank you soooooooooooooooooooo much Kristin!!!!! You made my day/week!!!!

One more exciting thing! We are FINALLY going to get Internet at home!!! We haven't had Internet since September. It hasn't been a big deal to me - to have it or not to have it. I'm at work an hour early each morning and an hour late each day - so I get some surfing in. I will say that it's been hard these last few weeks because I'm been so so so soooooooooooooooooo busy at work since they laid Courtney off. I don't have time for anything. That is why my blog reading, commenting and posting has dropped to NOTHING lately! =( We are excited!!!

I hope everyone is doing well! I miss you all and as soon as I can I promise I will get over to your blog and get caught up!

HAPPY FRIDAY!!!
