Honeymoon

We just printed off the Honeymoon pictures. We used a disposable waterproof camera so the resolution isn't terribly good. That whole week was a blast! We went on a cruise out of Tampa that went to the Cayman Islands then to Cozumel, Mexico. We went on a sightseeing tour in the Cayman islands in a thin bus and a crazy driver. The tour was called Seven Mile Beach tour so we figured it would include a stop at..... the beach. Well we only made 2 stops: one at a place called Hell and at a Rum/Rum cake factory. Hell was exciting but we got rained out. The Rum factory could have been more exciting if we were raging alcholics but alas we settled for a delicious virgin pina colada. We've been having withdrawls over that beverage ever since. The next day we were at Cozumel where we went on a tour of the Mayan ruins across the bay. That was pretty cool. Those nephites sure were smart! and they liked iguanas too. One of the pictures has an arrow pointing to a crooked building. I thought it just looked stupid til our tour guide explained that it is crooked at 23 1/2 degrees- the exact tilt of the earth. Every morning at 5AM a light comes through a little window in the back and makes an amazing star if you look from another building at it. (No, we weren't there to see it at 5 AM.) Our tour guide kept saying how there was a huge war between 300 and 500 AD and massive amounts of people died. He said they don't know what caused the war and why they kept fighting so long... Wow he needs to read Moroni. We got to see the beach from there but it was down a steep cliff that looked like something evil kenievel would back away from. The last few days of the moon we went to Clearwater, got lost forever, found the beach and got sunburns on our shoulders, and just chillaxed. On Sunday we went to the Clearwater ward where everyone asked if I was related to the Keith. They really liked him there. Okay well I'm going to do some work. I'll clue you in on our adventurous flight home later.
