Cruise with Me Baby

Just when I thought I was up to date with my blogging, I fell behind again. But at least this means that I've had such an eventful summer that I just can't keep up :-) We went on a 3-day CRUISE (for the first time) to the Bahamas and spent a couple of days in Miami Beach from July 31 to Aug.5. Wen and Raf joined us and all in all I have to say it was a great experience (minus the usual tedious procedures at the airport and port). Would I cruise again? Yes. But it's all about the beach. It's such an invigorating, incredible feeling to be swimming in the warm ocean waters beneath sunny blue skies. Ahhhh....wish I could master the art of teleporting right now...

As expected, Natalie loved being in the water. She equally loved the free-style dining on the cruise...eat whenever, whatever, and however much you want :-)



Shots taken at Miami Beach...


Miami Beach was beautiful with its palm tree-lined streets and art deco architecture. We gave up our last day in Miami for shopping at Macy's which to my disappointment, was a mistake. I was expecting back-to-school shopping heaven but could find nothing but - go figure - Miami beachwear. Why would anyone in their right mind wear slacks and long-sleeve shirts in 35 degree+ weather?? Ah well. Gives us an excuse to venture back to Miami Beach some other time to fully enjoy the beach. And it also gives me an excuse to make a trip to New York city to check out the highly acclaimed Macy's there :-)

Shots taken at "Jungle Island" in Miami...

They've got an awesome collection of parrots of all colours! Natalie enjoyed checking out all the other animals at Jungle Island too.
