Today we are in Ensenada, Mexico. We had planned to get off the ship today but after getting a security warning from the ship we decided to spend the day enjoying ourselves on the ship. No need to risk our lives.

I've been to Ensenada, Mexico before and it is pretty dirty and gross but it sure does look pretty from the ship.

Happy 19th Anniversary to my sweet husband.

Our waiters brought us this yummy cake and sung "Happy Anniversary" to us. What an enjoyable evening.

Today is also Josh's birthday. Happy Happy Birthday Josh. I'm so glad to have you in our family.

After going on a couple of cruises we learned a few things. One - Bring a small fan to keep the air in your room circulating. Two - Air Freshener spray for the bathroom and Three - Bring Oreo Cookies :)

Even though the ship has amazing food and lots of cookies, there is nothing like an Oreo in Kimball's book. He eats a couple every single day.

I stayed in bed and read all day long. I loved it. That is what vacationing is all about right? :)

I love how all our desserts are always so fancy on the ship. I loved the desserts, except for this one. So pretty to look at but it wasn't good at all. That plate of pretty food went to waste. :)

Today we are in Maui. This tree is amazing. I wish the picture was better but I'm hoping you can still see that this is ONE tree. All the trunks that you see come from the main tree itself. Its amazing.

We were suppose to go snorkeling today but we worried about my parents so we canceled that tour and decided to rent a car. What a disaster that was. Got to the rental place and was told they were out of cars and they wouldn't have any until 1pm. Long story short...we went shopping today :)

Kimball is enjoying his time in Kauai. He's had his camera in his hand all day and I sure can't wait to see all the pictures he has taken.

When we went on our Hawaii Cruise for Kimball's 40th birthday Kauai was my least favorite Island. The excursion we went on was not enjoyable and I was actually thinking of not even getting off the ship for this Island but I had heard so many people talk about how great this Island is. So we rented a car and went sight seeing. I actually think that Kauai is now my favorite island. It is stunningly beautiful.

This is the LDS Temple on Oahu's North Shore. It's one of the prettiest sights ever. After visiting the temple I sent Justin a text and told him that he needed to get married here so I could come back :)

Today we also went to the Polynesian Cultural Center, walked Waikiki Beach. I won't go into details of how we got lost and ended up walking 2 hours to get back to the ship :)

What a full filled day today has been. It is so hard to pick a picture for my POTD, but here it is. This is Rainbow Falls on the Big Island of Hawaii.

Today we went to the Volcanoes National Park, walked through the Thurston Lava Tube, walked around the Akatsuka Orchid Garden, had an island-style buffet lunch at Nani Mau Gardens and walked around the gardens there. Went to the Mauna Loa Macadamia Nut Factory where we had some of the BEST Macadamia nut ice-cream. We finished the day with stopping by Rainbow Falls.

I'm trying to take this picture discreetly :) You go on a cruise for 14 days, you see lots of older men wearing speedos. It's a scary sight!!!

The first thing I have eaten in over 24 hours. When I left home, I had a house full of kids that had the flu bug. They were all at the end of the 24 hours but I still felt bad. Well I got my payback for leaving :) I got it pretty bad on Thursday Night and all day today. I felt good enough to go for dinner but I wasn't able to each much and did go back to bed as soon as dinner was done. So glad it didn't last long and that Kimball never got it.
