Mexican Riviera Cruise 2010!!

So as you all know Andrew got me a cruise for graduation.  It was so much fun, I had never been on a cruise and Andrew had only been on one when he was just a little tike! So it was way nice for us to get away for a few days without any worries and without SCHOOL!! We had 2 days at sea and then our first port was Puerto Vallarta.  We swam with the dolphins and sea lions here.  We did some shopping and I got a Tanzanite ring.  It is a blue diamond and is gorgeous!  We went and ate at a so called authentic mexican resturant that cost us $55 to eat at, but we just said whatever and enojoyed ourselves. After that we stopped at Matzalan, there we went kyaking and snorkeling.  We shopped around a little bit and ate at a taco stand, Andrew loves these tacos.  Our third stop was Cabo San Lucas, it was really pretty there.  We went fishing while we were in Cabo.  We didn't end up catching anything but it was still fun.  Then we had one more day at sea and we were back to LA.  Andrew and I were really excited to go on a cruise but it was wonderful to get home too.  Here are a few pictures from our adventures!!

Mini golf was way fun

We ended up tieing the times that we did play

Just us on the ship

We had never done this before so we figured we'd give it a try.

We ended up playing on ten dollars between the both of us for about an hour and a half. It was fun!

Andrew and I at the authentic resturant that cost us $55.

This guy would just pick a random rock and balance them on each other, talk about minute to win it!

I thought these sand sculptures were pretty cool

I thought it was amazing how they could do this out of sand

Andrew was fishing off the dock, surprise surprise!
