Russ and Andria on the deck...waiting to depart Miami Beach. Our U.S. Coast Guard "gun ship" escort. View from the balcony, as we leave Miami Beach...what a beautiful sunset. The pilot boat crashing through the waves. Our cruise is underway!!!

Russ gets a shave before dinner the first night of the cruise...a bargain at $45.00...ouch!!! We all had a massage the first night...I could get use to this.

Andria talked Rick and Russ into entering the "sexy legs" competition on day 1 of our cruise. Little did she know that her husband would walk away with the "Mr. Nice Booty" award for having the nicest butt on the entire ship...well, at least the nicest of the 12 contestants. Lucky girl!!!

Andria and I enjoying dinner on Sunday night. Tomorrow we arrive in Labadee, Haiti.

Approaching the coast of Haiti. The view from Rick and Lisa's stateroom balcony is beautiful.

The Liberty of the Seas, anchored at our first port of call...Labadee, Haiti. Absolutely beautiful!

The Haitian Market, Labadee, Haiti.

What a view! The lagoon in Labadee, Haiti.

Rick and Andria heading out for their jetski excursion...little do they know the rains and 5 foot swells are just minutes away.

The Liberty of the Seas anchored in Labadee, Haiti...as a passing rain storm moves over the mountains. Rick and Andria are out there on a jetski, getting soaked!

Leaving Labadee, Haiti, after a fun afternoon of swimming and riding jetski's.

Lisa and Andria in the backseat of our "Chuka" buggy. The four of us drove into the hills above Montego Bay, Jamaica. Muddy...but loads of fun, and we all had the bruises to prove it.

Close up of the thorns on the "engagement tree", in Montego Bay, Jamaica. The father of the bride required his future son-in-law to strip naked, and climb this tree...then slide down, in order to prove himself worth of marrying the man's daughter. Boy, am I glad I don't live in Jamaica! Ouch!!

Pirate Ship...Georgetown, Grand Cayman.

Heading to our dive boat for our "helmet dive" in Grand Cayman...Andria is thinking, "how did I let them talk me into this...". She did awesome, and it was an amazing experience for all of us.

Standing on the dock at "Hammerheads"...great fish & chips...our ship, Liberty of the Seas, is in the background.

Anchoring in Georgetown, Grand Cayman...the water was amazing!

Formal Night..."Sexy Thang"...and Andria looks pretty good too. We sent her dress out to be pressed, and our state room attendant couldn't find it...a nervous moment...but, she located it minutes before we were to leave for dinner...shew!
