Cruise Vacation with a Balcony

We were thrilled to get to go on a cruise and for the first time ever, get a room with a balcony!!!

The room 

Pretty green water 

Beautiful blue water with breakfast 

Waking up to discover we are parked next to another ship 

Leaving port and many other cruise ships behind 

Different port, another cruise ship 

Just coloring on the balcony 

Hanging out

I don't know if we will ever have another balcony room again, but we enjoyed it while we could!

Wordless Wednesday

They have their own rooms and their own beds.

US Independence Day

4th of July is traditionally celebrated with fireworks and the kids are finally ready to enjoy multiple late night shows.

They loved the lights, but it was too loud for Sweet Son 

First night of fireworks 

This was a cheap tank that was supposed to roll and shoot off sparklers. It was a dud, but we attached bigger sparklers so it did something at least. 

2nd night of fireworks - the view from the backyard

Belated Canada Day

Canada Day isn't typically celebrated in the United States, obviously. However the kids wanted to recognize the country their Dad grew up in.

Oh Canada!
