- Family. We had a great time catching up with each other and watching the cousins play.
- Wildlife in Barbados - we were right next to turtles, monkeys, wallabies & even touched a peacock
- Clearest Water Ever - the water was gorgeous, especially in St. Maarten & St. Thomas. Jack loved the beach and ran right into the water even regardless of whether he was in his swimming gear or not.
Food - It was plentiful and great, but Jack went almost 4 days eating hardly anything. He did not consume one vegetable or fruit (even a banana) while we were there. He had a fever one night, and actually through up on the dining room table near the end of our cruise (yep, disgusting...I whisked him back to the cabin pretty quickly after that). So, although he had a great time in the pool and on the beach he was out of sorts.
Oh, you can order room service anytime for free so that was cool. Here's cousin Avery below enjoying her cookies for dessert.
Scuba - We went for our first scuba dive and it was amazing. We aren't certified yet, so it was a 25 foot dive but we still saw a baracuda, lobster, and other colorful fish.
Cruise Ship - The thing is HUGE. Jack loved seeing the ocean from our room and woke up every day saying, "I see the ocean". We even went to an ice skating show. This is a great photo of my niece in front of the ship.

Hey there,
Thanks for my Mother's Day card! I meant to tell Scott about the room service before you left so I'm glad you found that out. Sounds like you had a great time. Bummer about Jack feeling ill, maybe he got seasick.;( Can't wait to see you guys next week.
Hey Tyndalls!!! Looks like you had a great time. That was a red-footed tortoise in the picture. The 4th Atkins is a redfoot named Maverick. If Jack ever wants to relive his trip, come play with Maverick. :)
Aw-w-w-w, this made me miss your mom. I've got to give her a call! We were meeting for lunch freqently, and then the holidays hit, and -and- and.
On my to-do-list tomorrow!
