Cruisin

Saturday, November 22, we embarked on first ever cruise and were fortunate enough to take the entire family, all 9 of us! We had so great fun and were sick to death of food by the time we got home!
Our first stop was Cabo San Lucas where we went out on a catamaran for a snorkeling trip. The water and the fish were beautiful. In town we were talked in to a picture of the kids with a baby lion cub, and pictures with various lizards.
The next day was spent in Mazatlan. We just went in to town and did some shopping and visited a cathedral. We didn't get any good pictures...next time I guess.
Our favorite day was in Puerto Vallarta. We took a little tour of the city, the beach and the jungle. We visited the set of the movie Predator where there was a natural rock slide into a beautiful river pool. They had a rope swing rigged up and everyone tried it. I was most impressed with the bravery of our entire family...the water was freezing!
We took a million pictures between our 3 cameras but I couldn't possibly post them all here. These are some of my favorites. Enjoy!


Day One: Our vessel! Everyone is so excited to get on!

Words would never do this picture justice!

Lindsey being oh so brave....NOT! She wouldn't hold the lizard by herself.

Puerto Vallarta

As you can see, there are really cute girls there :)

On the set of "Predator"! Deep in the jungle (well, maybe not so deep). This was awesome!
