Carnival Dream Day 4

Day 4 on the Carnival Dream was another port of call, and this time we stopped in Mahogany Bay which is located on the island of Roatan, Honduras. I was super excited and nervous all at the same time for this stop because we had booked a zip lining excursion combined with Gumbalimba Park with our friends we were cruising with. H had read about a lady on a Norwegian ship who fell to her death while on this same ziplining tour in February so he freaked himself out and me a little bit, but I still...

Carnival Dream Day 3

Our 3rd day on the wonderful Carnival Dream was our 1st port of call which was Cozumel, Mexico. I had visited here before on a past cruise, but it was a new port to H and our friends. Even though I had been there a few years before, I didn't see anything I saw 3 years ago on the Carnival Liberty. Our ship docked at a completely different pier, and we went on a completely different excursion. When we woke up and went out on to our balcony to enjoy our breakfast we saw that a Royal Caribbean ship...

Carnival Dream Day 2

After a good first night's sleep we were up and ready for our first day at sea. We had room service deliver breakfast (always free on a cruise!) so we enjoyed some fresh pastries, jams, fruit, and coffee out on our balcony as we took in the beautiful sites of the bright blue Caribbean Sea and the ocean breeze. Amazingly perfect! After breakfast, we made our way up to the top deck to enjoy laying out in the sun, some tropical drinks, swimming in the pools, and going down the waterslides. Sometimes,...

Carnival Dream Day 1

We just got back from our 7 night cruise on the Carnival Dream with another couple we're close to from back in CT. It stopped in Cozumel Mexico, Roatan Honduras, Belize City Belize, and Costa Maya Mexico. We had an AMAZING time! The Carnival Dream is their 2nd newest ship as the Magic is their newest and the Breeze will be released sometime next year. It's so big that when we docked next to the Oasis of the Seas in Cozumel it wasn't dwarfed by it like most other ships are. Deck 5 was one of our...

If having 2 shades is wrong then I don't want to be right

It's finally here! Our friends are flying down as I type this and we're super excited to pick them up from the airport and tomorrow we set sail! I got my vacation pedicure the other day and chose OPI LA Paz-Itively Hot: (googled photo) Crappy cell phone pic And last night I painted my own nails with my new Essie Fiji that I picked up at Target, which I promised I'd post pics of once I painted them myself. Please excuse the amature job and admire the pretty colors :-P I love that the Fiji is...

Happy Birthday! Love, Sephora

My birthday is in 2 days... eek! But I don't want to turn 28 *insert pouty face*. Sigh... well there's nothing I can do about it, and I have to admit I'm at the best place in my life right now and wouldn't go back to my early or even mid-twenties for anything! I had a beautiful wedding last year and married the guy of my dreams, went on an amazing honeymoon, we fulfilled our dream of moving to FL, we built our new house, and now we've got our cruise coming up with 2 of our favs at the end of the...
