Once on board we learned we would be taken to an area that would have a ship wreck to snorkel around, then we would go to another area to snorkel some more... then do the famous rope swing off the boat!!!
J was already having fun, a few kids from his club were on the same ship as us.
P was enjoying his day also, with his friend.... ugg Im not ready for these years LOL
About 30mins after enjoying a relaxing cruise out to sea we arrived at our 1st destination.
You know who was the 1st in the water out of everyone right....
Nemo Jr was in next.
I rarely get in past my knees (I dont like my drinks to get salt water in them LOL), but thought it would be cool to see the shipwreck.
It was cool for about 10 seconds. But the waters were pretty rough. For every 10kicks I only moved what seemed like an inch... and backwards at that.
Sadly after taking a couple pictures I headed back to the boat, I just kept getting water in my snorkel. That's No Fun! But getting back on the boat came to be an excursion in itself. With the waters so rough it kept pushing us towards the back of the boat. Then I kept letting kids go up before me, since they were struggling also.
Eventually, we all got back on board to head to our next spot. I grabbed a cup of rum punch or 2 and laid out after my swim.
Love it when were cruising together.
Then we came upon our 2nd stop... welcome to my home everyone!
P and his friend jumped off the boat together (hand in hand.. aww LOL) Then he found a pair of ray ban sunglasses. Which we made a joke that they were our friend Loris'... when we were in Punta Cana last year our friend was on a hobby cat and jumped off to swim and lost hers. We were diving for hours trying to find them LOL. Fast forward to back to this trip and they were one of gals from the boat. When she jumped in the glasses came off.
Off he goes again...
This water was much calmer, infact I jumped in and swam around the boat this time.
Once was enough and I came back on the boat before they started the real fun....
Rope Swinging! J was up 1st.
Looks like E tried to do a back flip.
P's turn.
Heck even I took a few swings... not before a few "adjustments" were made as to not lost anything LOL
We took over the boat with our group... literally!
So backing up to Curacao, remember that platform I mentioned that people were jumping off of. Well J and his friends swam out to it and he slipped, thus scratching his arm all up, and bruising his face. It didnt show yesterday, but today it came out in full force. So when we asked him if his face hurt and he said no, we of course told him but its killing us (I know were so kind LOL) anyhow I told him to make a face like it was. But seriously it didnt hurt him, as he was having tons of fun on the rope swing. The belly flops were much more painful Im sure.
Once everyone on ship had done the swing a few times, It was time for lunch as we cruised back to dock.
Food was delish too and it went well with a few more Rum Punches...ok a lot of punches. A girl gets thirsty with all the swiming and swinging.
