Half Moon Cay

Day four was Half Moon Cay.  Scott and I woke up and ran on the track again.  Then we got ready to head to the island.  This island is a private island owned by Carnival.  They leased it in 1978 for 99 years for only 6 million dollars!  Only 8 people live on the island, the people who take care of the horses and the island.  They get their food from the cruise ships that stop there.  The water was too shallow for the ship to dock at the island so we had to take smaller boats to get to the island.  This island was absolutely beautiful.  The bluest water and the sand was like silk.  We hung out on the beach for most of the day.  We walked along the beach and saw these different sand sculptures people had made....that was cool.  We went swimming in the ocean.  It was amazing.  It was our favorite stop by far!  Once we got back on the ship we got some wine and cheese and relaxed and talked in the library..our own private little date:)  At dinner Scott ordered escargot...yes that is snails...yuck...but he liked them!  That night was really wavy and I wasn't feeling well so we called it a night after dinner.  But what a great day it was!

 Such blue water!
