On the 16th of November Sean and I headed out for our 4th cruise. It was a very relaxing cruise this time and we slept alot! Our boat left out of Ft. Lauderdale Florida. We cruised Sunday evening and all of Monday. Tuesday, after being stood up by our guy, we managed to score a similar excursion to snorkel. Well we snorkeled and the rest of our group scuba dived. Sean and I had big fun watching all of the fish come out of hiding. We shopped a little and then boarded the boat for Honduras. Wednesday, after breaking down and getting a new car, we went cave tubing with a wonderful guide and actually jumped off a little cliff into the fresh spring water. Sean and Jeff had lots of little fish eating their fish hairs and Sean managed to offend the other couple with us. Ole' well you win some and you lose some. The jungle was sooo green and so full of "what ifs?" What if we lived here? What if we came and just walked through the jungle for a few weeks? What if we brought the kids back to visit? What if we. . .??? Yea we had alot of those. It was just a fun place to see and such a different life style then we are used to that it made us imagine.
In Cozumel we had massages on the beach. We ate lunch right there and watched every one playing in the water. Then we found out we were short money!!! We needed $15 to get back to the boat and we only had $11. So thanks to the other American couple we were able to get back to the boat. They will be getting some Utah candy soon. After running all around we got to the ATV excursion and they told us because we didn't have a drivers license we couldn't go. Crap-I was ticked. So we walked the 3+ miles back to the boat and did some shopping and we saw some monkeys. They were so cute.

I must say seeing another ones culture is really eye opening. There were young girls riding bikes down a very busy road with a baby on their hip. Or if you were lucky you were on a scooter with the baby on your hip. There were no real road rules or speed limits and the roads there were almost big enough for two cars to pass. We noticed that there was alot of cinder block used to build everything. It because of the hurricanes and the amount of termites. It was fun to be on the boat and see the missionaries walk by on land-we waved and yelled. But to see the gospel spread was a little moving. We realized how small we can be in that big ocean and how rich we are having so much in our lives. Made us a couple of grateful parents.



Over all we had fun. We relaxed and we enjoyed each others company doing lots of walking together and lots of laughing. Now we are ready for a quiet Christmas together with the kids and the snow in our new home.
