More scenes from the Carnival Splendor

Here are a few more film photos from around the boat on the 'sea days' between islands. I've shared photos from Half Moon Cay where we mostly spent time on the beach, swimming, and exploring the shoreline and eating barbecue, and Nassau , where we snorkeled the first half of the day, and spent the rest exploring the city on foot, checking out the historic Queen's Staircase and old fort at the top, and eating fried fish and conk fritters with fresh daquiris.

I still have photos from Grand Turk Island to share, but those are nearly all iphone photos since the day was a little more wet and adventurous than the rest and we didn't take our cameras. The ship had some pretty areas I liked to visit frequently, like the sitting area near the ice cream, with pastel coloured-glass and tiled walls. The colours were so pretty with the natural light coming in from the windows. The glass elevators were also a lot of fun, and very gaudily designed. The promenade deck was the best place to be at sunset, although it was surprisingly cold and chilly, and the high winds certainly didn't help. I tried to suck it up though, because nothing beat walking around the perimeter or relaxing in a chunky blue rocking chair as the cotton candy sky faded and the fat bulbs lining the deck bathed everything in a faint glow.
