Well, Billy and I did it...we left Anna for a full week to officialy celebrate our five-year anniversary on a cruise!
We left early on a Saturday morning (Aunt Mags and Uncle AJ watched Anna for the weekend and then handed off to Grandma and Grandpa) and headed to San Juan, where we stayed one night. On Sunday, we boarded the ship and off we sailed to the British Virgin Islands and the West Indies (St. Thomas, St. John's, Tortolla, Virgin Gorda, Antigua, St. Lucia and Barbados).
We had the time of our lives...soaking up the sun, eating, drinking, doing excursions, sailing, snorkeling, etc. We really enjoyed the "alone time" and just having fun with each other. I'm not saying we didn't miss Anna everyday, but it's so nice to know that Billy and I haven't changed much when it comes to "us." We have fun, laugh, love and truly enjoy eachother's company...Anna is just an added bonus!
In addition to befriending a fabulous German couple (and partying very hard with them), Billy and I experienced so much on this trip, including hiking a 17 century sugar plantation in St. Lucia, swimming and climbing through the amazing baths at Virgin Gorda, jet-skiing off the shores of Barbados and drinking a lot of Carib and Rum! :)
