under the sea

Remember that one time that I packed my bags full of sun screen and sun dresses and headed to the Caribbean?  Well, I thought I would finally fill you in on all of my underwater adventures via a picture update:

I love swimming so much that I went snorkeling in both Jamaica and Haiti.  It was incredible to spend so much time in such clear blue water, although I may or may not have gotten pretty sunburned on my back.   
One of my favorite things about snorkeling is seeing rays of sunshine cut through the water highlighting the coral on the ocean floor.  
In Haiti we took a boat ride about 30 minutes from our cruise ship but the ship was so big that we could still see it from our snorkel sight!  (that's my friend April pictures above) 
I think with a little more practice April and I could rely on snorkeling as our backup careers (you know, just in case nursing and teaching don't work out for us) 
In summary: the food was amazing, the water was great but the best part of this trip was being able to live life with a good friend instead of having to update her about the life I am living.  For me, the richness of this shared experience and the depth of our common memories are worth their weight in gold!
