Drawing Board



We're baaaack from one of the most wonderful trips EVER! Truly. The kids both said that is was "better than Disney World!" Wow. I knew it was better from an adult's point of view, but when the kids both said it I knew... that we'd be going back there one day. No words can express how enjoyable and relaxing and beautiful The Atlantis is and was. We highly recommend going if you have the chance. I'll spare you 211 pictures and put a few here.

Our view from our room.



Our time spent with the dolphins...



First night there...


The little beach bums having some FUN!!




The trip consisted of lots of family time, interacting with dolphins, ice cream every night, Lexie's first pedicure, golf for the boys, the kids' first limo ride (twice!), finding crabs, the lazy river (that was NOT lazy for the most part), snorkling around the ocean & feeding the fish that follow you around, wonderful weather with lots of SUNSHINE & sunscreen, & live music around the pools!

Back to the drawing board!

Our tower was "The Cove" @ The Atlantis and it had it's own lil' private beach and there was a reef barrier that kept that little area "safe"... like... from sharks... :)
