Bahamas!!!

On May 10th, my BFF Regina's Birthday, we headed south to the sunny, warm Bahamas for a few days. It was her 40th Birthday and we wanted to do something special to celebrate. We invited a few other girlfriends along but only Sheri ended up joining us;) We flew out of Ft. Wayne thru Atlanta and were sitting poolside by 2PM. We stayed harbor side on Paradise Island...at the Paradise Island Harbor Resort. It was a small but all-inclusive hotel. The pool area was decent but the beach was small and the rooms were in desperate need of a makeover (especially the bathroom). The hotel also had some electrical issues and the power was out several hours a day during the time we were there. The food was pretty good and most of the drinks were tasty;) It was so relaxing just to be away for a few days with NO schedule, cooking, cleaning, homework or any other activities. I really appreciated the break and time to be with my girlfriends. We had such a great time together. The most fun thing we did was took a Party Cat Snorkeling Cruise. It was a big catamaran that held about 50 people very comfortably. They took us out to private Rose Island where they cooked us a traditional bahamian lunch. We also snorkeled, swam in the gorgeous, clear, blue water and just relaxed. They served us plenty of Bahama Mamas and after about 4 hours of FUN in the SUN, we started our cruise back. We did shots, sang and danced our booties off on the way back to our hotel. It was a SUPER fun day!!! PARTY CAT!!! WOOOO!!!

We took a walk to the oceanside beach one afternoon. It was really windy, with huge waves, but REALLY pretty!!!
