July 2005  Trip to Barbados

 The snorkeling was amazing right in front of the room.  thousands of fish in hundreds of shapes and sizes.

The nicest restaurant was just below our room so we spent the last night eating dinner alone. 

Ema found a cat and was fascinated.

Photo in front of Reef resturant.  One of 3 and the seafood resturant pretty good, but servious was very slow.

We spent Wednesday on a catamaran cruise.  Big, beautiful boat and snorkeling over some sunken ships.  Guess who was the hit of the boat?  Everyone knew her name.   Emiko snorkeling. Ema could see the ocean throught he drain hole...

When she wants to go out, she climbs in the stroller...   Lets watch mommy kayak.   Spent most dinners entertaining Ema with a new puzzle. 

First day on th ebeach... she loved the crashing waves! Laughing so hard. High tea and Im all sweaty.  Emi loved it though.

The spaghetti from the kids buffet was apparently pretty good.  We spent the rest of the trip looking for it at lunch time. 

Bye bye Barbados.
