Day 2

We conquered the rock wall!
Somewhere it hits you... this is no ordinary cruise!! :)





We have had a blast today hanging out all day at the rock wall and the "Flowrider". I was a little nervous climbing the wall as it was my first time, but I made it all the way to the top and had fun doing it! Martin looked as if he had done it for years! Now on the the Flowrider. What it is, is a constant flow of water that shoots up an incline allowing you to ride the wave for as long as you can stay up. We boogey-boarded first and then Martin tried surfing for a while. I was kind of a chicken, and wasn't going to try but then decided to. I actually liked it better than boogey-boarding. I even stayed up for a few seconds!
Martin took some semi-private lessons tonight and kicked tail! Here are a few pics. We also have video that I will post when we get home. It will take too long to download on the ship.


Tomorrow we plan on hitting the flowrider early to avoid the lines and then it is off to San Juan. We will be bringing our water camera so we will not be able to post from our day trip. We are going ATVing and we are excited! I am not sure if I will be able to post tomorrow, but check back in the evening just in case. Our love to all of you and thanks for the compliments!

We had fun today at Build-a Bear. Then lunch at Berger King, Emily knew exactly what she wanted. On to buy wings, and a present for Aunt Kristi's b-day. On to Trice for a charm. She wanted one like Phoebe's, so that set the tone for the rest of the charms. Judy was excited to meet her. On to Target and the grocery store. We had Salmon for dinner, then a short walk. Saturday is a playday with Xanthie who lives on the corner. Tomarrow we go to the Butterfly Pavillion, and lunch with Aunt Carolyn. Thursday we visit Brooklyn and will celebrate Kristi's b-day. We are having fun. I bought her some "pretties" for her hair. She enjoyed your blog, but seems very happy to be with Grammie.
Love to you two honeymooners. I love sharing your adventures in such a timely manner.
Love Mom
