Key West

We boarded Enchantment of the Seas Monday afternoon and enjoyed eating and exploring. Our ship had a theater (pictured below), several pools and hot tubs, a rock climbing wall, bungee trampolines, a casino, shopping, a spa and fitness center, and several places to eat. We thought the ship was huge, but we've since learned that it is Royal Caribbean's second smallest!


Our new friends



Our first stop was Key West, Florida. We had no plans when we got off except to find a place where Tyler could get his hair cut. We found a little barber shop and the old man in there happened to be LDS. It was quite a coincidence. We walked around the city a bit and went to the southernmost point in the continental U.S. Then we ended up renting a jet ski for an hour and going crazy in the ocean. It was tons of fun.


This place had tons of statues all around it

We didn't pay to get in, but I would have liked to


Our nice ship


I couldn't leave Key West without eating key lime pie ice cream!


Formal night (my hair looks horrible!)


The little friend we found in our room


Our room, which was much nicer than the one we stayed at in Fort Lauderdale


We could have consumed all this for only $42.35
