the cruise

so here's the cruise part of our trip :). we would sail into each port..stay a day or two..and then would have a day at sea in between each place. so all in all we got to know our cruise ship pretty well :). matt & camee, you probably will recognize it..it was the same exact cruise ship we were on in hawaii! they changed the name of the ship from 'pride of hawaii' to the 'norwegian jade' and moved it from hawaii to the mediterranean last year :). i would definitely recommend norwegian cruise lines. they have the best service and are so much fun! we loved our cruise!
