Welcome to Grand Turk

We docked early in the morning and we were off the ship by 9:00 ready to explore the island. We took a couple of pictures of the kids by the ship. Next to the small dock the ship looked massive.

Another picture of us by the ship




Here is a better picture showing the size of the ship, check out the clear water. Grand Turk is supposed to have been the best island on our cruise for snorkeling.


Here are couple more pictures of the island itself so you can get a better idea of what it looked like and how crystal clear the water is.

Here is the beach area where we spent most of the day.

Here is a picture of Kenny snorkeling, one of your team members had a underwater camera so we took a bunch of neat underwater pics.
Another shot with the underwater camera


Yours truely enjoying the limelight

There were all kinds of fish and we had great fun swimming with them and taking underwater pictures.

We also rented a clear bottom Kayak and paddled around. Alan really enjoyed this as that was the only time he saw the sea floor very clearly.


We ended our time on the island in a nice restaurant area. Here is a picture of the boys with our ship in the background from the upstairs of the restaurant.


The boys outside the restaurant.



We had great fun on Grand Turk, and when the cruise was over the boys rated this island as the best of all the ones we visited.

Hi Chad!
Love this photo log of your cruise adventure with the boys. Looks like you all had a wonderful time. So glad for you! Probably something the boys will remember all their lives.
What a special time for the three of you.
Love, Mama
