Carribean Cruise

We had been wanting to go on a cruise for a long time so last year we got the Southwest credit card and saved up our points all year so that we could go on a cruise. Our points paid for our flights to Florida and our hotel stay, so all we actually paid for was the cruise! My mom came down and watched Cambree for a week and it was the perfect getaway!

Our cruise ship was the Carnival Freedom and we sailed out of Fort Lauderdale. Our first day we just relaxed and explored around the ship. We both had never been on a cruise before and we were amazed at how big the ship was!! There was so much to do, to see and to eat!


One of our favourite things to do was go up to the Serenity deck where it was adults only. It was always calm and quiet up there and it was easy to find a chair!



We loved that every night we had a little towel animal waiting for us, two chocolates, our bed turned down and the Fun Times which was a newspaper of all the activities for the next day.




Our first port was Cozumel, Mexico and we went to an all inclusive beach for the day. They had a beautiful beach, snorkelling, kayaking, a pool, massage and also a ton of food!












When we got back to the ship there was a Cinco de Mayo party on the Lido deck. We were all about the parties and dances on deck so we loved this one!





Our next port was Belize and we had to take little tender boats from the cruise ship to the beach. Here was the view of our ship and we left on the boat.



In Belize we went cave tubing and zip lining in the jungle!





Our third port was Roatan, Honduras. We took this cute little chair lift over to the beach. We did a little snorkelling and suntanning.





Our last port of call was the Caymen Islands and our favourite! We went swimming with dolphins and the swimming out at sea with stings rays! 



On our last day of the cruise we hung out on the boat and enjoyed all of it's amenities!





We loved every minute of our cruise but we were excited to get back to our little Cambree bug! She had a blast hanging out with her Nana for the week but loved when we came home and she especially loved that we brought presents!
