Picking up where we left off on my recent trip to the Bahamas!
Day 4: We went snorkeling!
We swam all the way out to those rocks to snorkel! I must admit, we were kind of chicken- it’s creepy being alone that far out. We spotted some beautiful fish and coral; some other snorkelers spotted eels and sea turtles- thank God we didn’t, I would have died!
On the way back to our hotel we had to pull over and check out all of these conch shells! It was unreal how many were jsut laying there..
That night we took a little trip to a private beach for a dinner/bon fire type thing. We arrived and were literally force fed Bahama Mama’s! LOL
I got suckered into the DJ’s game…. basically musical chairs with people, you dance…when the music stops, you grab the person closest to you. This chef wasn’t even playing, but he swooped in, completely startled me, and helped me make it to the final! 5 😉 I was dying!
They had a huge buffet set up…chicken, ribs, rice, beans, corn bread, cole slaw, corn on the cob…so YUM!
After dinner they had a bon fire set up on the beach. After a few too many Bahama Mama’s Kath and I had a photo shoot …
Then came a fire dancer! She was dancing, eating fire, and rubbing it all over her skin! I don’t know how she did it! So crazy…
Day 5: Back to the beach! I couldn’t wait to just lay out. Books, tanning, and pina coladas all day 🙂
We went to lunch with my parents 🙂
I LOVE floppy hats! But I was rocking my baseball hat most of the week for minimal facial shade 😉 However, Katherine looked SO adorable & totally pulled hers off!
After the beach, we went to this mediterranean spot for dinner. If you know me, you know how much I love bread! It’s one of my weaknesses. (Side story- When my boyfriend and I started dating a couple years ago, he’d always take me to dinner at restaurants that he KNEW would bring out a bread basket ! That’s love, encouraging unnecessary carb consumption 😉 )
The restaurant brought out this amazing warm, sliced, baguette with garlic butter and a hummus spread. I swear, it was so so yummy!
For dinner I basically got a caprese salad with feta subbing for mozz lol. It was alright, I definitely had better dinners that week…
A picture of my Mama and I at dinner 🙂
Still sifting through my pictures! I think the next post will wrap up my trip 🙂
