In January Jason and I went on a cruise with his sister Tara and her husband Brandon. The cruise departed out of Galveston Texas and stopped at Jamaica, Grand Caymens, and Cozumel.
I was the only one out of the four of us who had ever been on a cruise before. I told them all that cruises aren't bad and that they won't even tell that they are moving. I was way off!!! When the ship set sail it was stormy and really cold in Galveston. That first night was really rocky and I think that we all got a little sea sick. We had to go to the nurses station to get motion sickness medication. After that first night it was smooth sailing from there. 
Jason loved the cruise. Constant entertainment, sports, sun, food... One of his favorite things was the dinner options. He loved that he didn't have to pick which meal to eat because he could just get one of each. 
He also loved that there was always some type of sports competition going on at the sports court. In fact, every activity they offered we won!!! 
Brandon and Jason took first place in a three on three basketball tournament, the four of us took first in a volleyball tournament, Jason and Brandon joined with some other guys to win the dodgeball tournament, Jason took first place in the foul shot competition, and the last night Jason took first in the hot shots shoot around competition... and believe it or not I took second place. All together Jason and I took home 6 gold and one silver medals. Brandon enjoyed wearing all the medal to watch people stare.
Jamaica Jamaica was my favorite yet scariest island of all the places we stopped. We took a hour ride to the Dunn river falls. This was one of the most beautiful places that I have seen. The four of us climbed the waterfalls which are about 1,000 feet high. It was a blast climbing from the bottom to the top.
After we climbed the falls we drove to a different location to do some tubing down the river.
As we were driving back to our ship we got in a huge traffic jam. We were suppose to be back on the ship at 4:30 and it was 4:25 and we were still miles away. It was the longest ride of my life. The clock was moving but we were not. The ship had warned everybody that when the time came they would leave no matter who gets left beind. This was one of the most nerve racking moments of my life. If the ship left us we would have been in trouble because we only had small change with us and all of our ID'S were on the ship. When we pulled up they were getting the ramp ready to pull in. The people at the entrance were yelling at us to hurry. When we were going through the metal detectors we heard them radio the captain saying that the last four were on. After we left that building and headed to the ramp the whole side of the ship was full of people staring at us and they all started clapping. It was one of the most embarrassing moments of my life. Grand Caymens
The first thing we did was take a boat ride to a sandbar called Stingray City. This was so cool because we were in the middle of the ocean but we were able to stand because the sand was high enough. This area is a place were the stingrays come to breed. It was kind of scary but cool to be this close to them. They would just swim all around you. The tour guide would catch them and let us hold and feed them. As you can see the photographer was big on having you kiss them too. When we were done there we drove to a different location to snorkel. After our crazy experience we decided to go back on the boat early so that we wouldn't cut it close again.
Cozumel
When we got off the ship in Cozumel we found out that our ship was docked right by a ship that Taylor Swift was on. It was really cool to know we were that close to her but unfortunately we didn't get to see her.
This was the hottest islands of all our stops. When we got there we decided to rent scooters and drive around the island.
The first place we decided to go was the Mayan ruins. We were hoping they would be bigger than what they were but they were still pretty cool. As we were walking around we saw some of the biggest Iguana's I have ever seen. Jason and Brandon kept trying to get close to take a picture.
On our drive back out to the shops we decided to stop at a little stand and grab some drinks (Jason really wanted to grab a coke).
The last place we stopped was the beach.
