Vacation with Grandma

This past month I had the chance to go on a vacation with my grandmother. And we had quite a bit of fun!
We started off the trip by arriving in Florida. We were there for 3 days. One day we drove down through Miami on the A1A "beach front avenue" (did anyone get that?) Anyhow, and then we went on down the Florida Keys. We stopped off in Key Largo (the first of the keys)and had lunch at a cute little place right on the water.
We then continued on down the keys and went through Islamorada and then Marathon. That is where we turned around and headed back to our hotel cause it was getting late and couldn't see much in the dark.


I would go down there again and I would LOVE to do it on the motorcycles.

We were then able to find a ward to attend for sacrament on Easter Sunday! It's always so different going to church where you are not used to.

Then on Monday we boarded the Carnival Imagination for our 4 day cruise!

First stop....Key West!
Before we got off the ship Tuesday morning, Grandma took a moment to soak up a little bit of the suns rays.

In Key West we went on a little "train" tour of the town. A quick way to see the places you go.

The next day was a fun filled day in Cozumel. We spent our time and went to Talum for a tour of the Mayan Ruins.


The last day was a nice and relaxing day at sea. I have not been on a crises where I have had a day at sea. I spent it out on the deck getting a little bit of color. We had a great time on the cruise.


After getting off the ship we drove up to a Ranch that the Church owns and were able to take a tour there. The next day we were able to go to the Kennedy Space Center and see a small protion of it. It is a huge place and didn't have time to do much of it at all.
We had a great time and it was a lot of fun to be able to spend a week with Grandma! Thank you Grandma!
