Day 66 - Nassau

Arrived in Nassau about 8am so by the time we got up and out to breakfast we were pulling in to Nassau. It was amazing watching this giant shop manoeuvre into a parking spot next to the other cruise shops lol!  We had breakfast (the omelettes were delicious!!) and then went for a bit of a swim and relax by the pool. The boys were waiting desperately for the waterslide to open but it was still closed. We went and did the Harry Potter trivia quiz. Joshua was really good and knew 16 out of the 17 questions!
 
After another quick swim we got off the ship to have a look around Nassau. It was very hot and a bit like Bali with people bugging you for taxis and to get your hair braided. We wandered around and looked at a few shops. We went past the straw market and had a bit of a look there too- it was really hot though so a bit hard to get interested in shopping (hard to believe I know!).
  
We walked down to Junkanoo Beach which was one of the few free beaches. It was packed but it was gorgeous. Beautiful, clear water and lovely to cool off in. The drinks were really cheap too but the kids (especially Kaleb) were keen to get back on board the ship.
 
Back on board we headed to the pool where we spent most of the afternoon. Had a swim and a spa and a few games of mini golf, and managed to fit in a yummy cocktail while lazing by the pool reading my book. The waterslide had finally opened up so the boys had a great time going up and down. We all joined in the beanbag toss competition. Josh was leading for ages before he got beaten.
 
Had showers and headed up to dinner. The kids were keen to eat early so they could head off to the kids clubs- it was awesome!! The dinner was beautiful and it was just perfect sitting by the window looking out over the Bahamas. Can't get much better than that. After a delicious meal and scoffing down the dessert the children all left us for their clubs and Ian and I had a lovely, quiet time chatting and finishing off our dessert and another glass of wine!
 
We went to watch the really bad comedian  again - thought we'd give him another chance. He was actually much better than last night! Stayed to watch the second comedian Lester Bibbs who was really funny!  We then went to watch the show where we were meant to be meeting Kaleb after his club finished. The dancers and the costumes were fantastic. I was a bit worried that I hadn't seen Kaleb come in but thought he must have been watching it from downstairs or gone back to the room. Went downstairs after the show and there he was - as soon as he saw me he burst into tears. 😥
Took him back to the room and put him to bed and then Ian and I went to watch the midnight screening out on the pool deck - John Wick 2 - it was really good but a bit violent. Caitlin was enjoying the freedom of her kids club being open until 1am! She is going to be so grumpy tomorrow!
