For those of you that don't already know the story....while Chris and I were on our honeymoon in Jamacia we met a couple who had also been married on April Fool's Day, Chris and Kara Morgan. We hit it off right away and ended up spending most of our days by he pool and bar hanging out with them.
We have kept in touch over these past 4 years(they did live in Indiana but have relocated to Tennessee) and even have little girls that are a little over a month apart. With our 4th anniversaries approaching we decided to get together and go on a cruise sans kids to celebrate!
We left NC a little after 9pm after Chris got off work and headed to Cape Canaveral Fl. It rained the ENTIRE time we were driving down there. We met the Morgan's early Monday morning, after 2 hours of sleep and boarded the Monarch of the Seas. Chris and I did this cruise about 6 years ago aboard the Soverign of the Seas, but everything was so similar you could hardly tell the difference. Out itenerary had us cruising all night Monday night then stopping in Coco Cay Tuesday morning, however the seas did not cooperate with us. All night long the boat rocked and swayed and since there is not an actual "dock" in Coco Cay we ended up sailing all day long and arrived in the Bahamas Tuesday around 6pm. We ate dinner and celebrated our anniversaries and headed to Senor Frogs where we quickly noticed a bunch of drunk 18-19 year olds that were going to be making a lot of bad decisions! LOL
We headed back to the ship and Kara and I danced the night away forgetting that we had to be up early for our Parasailing Adventure the next day. We did make it though and WOW was it amazing. Such beautiful sights so high up and the water was soo blue I swear we could see straight through to the bottom! We then grabbed the boys and headed to Atlantis walked around for a bit, ate some lunch at the Atlas Bar and Grill then we headed to the beach where our wonderful husbands treated us to massages on the beach!
We left the Bahamas that night and headed for a 2nd try at Coco Cay. We were more successful this time so while everyone else was waiting in long lines to get to the island we stayed on the ship where we pretty much had the whole boat to ourselves. We cruised all night long Thursday night and arrived back in Florida on Friday and said our goodbyes. We had such a blast with the Morgan's and will definetly make sure we get together more often than every 4 years! I only posted a few pictures since I took 227! LOL
