caribbean week 2. life of a cruise ship nurse

the medical team decided to enjoy a fantastic dinner at the tamarind on the night of our embarkation from fort lauderdale. paula, alvin, myself, jo, and linda had a great time. for my appetizer i ate the chicken pho soup which i think is quite possibly one of the best tasting foods on earth! then i enjoyed pot stickers and a filet mignon which was just divine.

allister and i hanging out on the lido.  we had so much fun together

the weather in grand turk today was beautiful.  i enjoyed my time on the beach.  one of the other nurses, krista had told me about there being tons of sea glass on the beach here and so i spent a majority of my time walking up and down the beach collecting green, orange, and blue sea glass.  i plan on making some jewelry out of it.  it is really cool

the water was amazing here.

i love the beach

i can't believe how many different colors the water is.  it is so crazy to me.

i saw this cute pup on the beach. he was having a blast and i got my fill of dog.  i am missing jack like crazy, so it was nice to be able to pet him
