Bahamas for Spring Break

We went to the Bahamas for spring break this year and had a great time.  Julia & Ethan had overlapping spring breaks so we were finally able to take a family vacation with the 4 of us as the last time was 3 years ago.  

The highlights from the trip include Ethan scuba diving with the sharks, Craig and Ethan snorkeling, playing card games of BS, golf and spoons, great dinners and desserts, hanging out on the beach, Craig and I reading our kindles and spending a lot of quality family time together.

Playing cards at the hotel (every night)

 Our favorites include spoons, golf and BS.

Ethan went scuba diving with the sharks (Craig stayed on the boat).  The instructor had a mesh armor on as he gets bit at least 3-4 times per feeding by the sharks.  Ethan had a great time and was not bothered at all by the sharks.

Dinner at Cafe Matisse (great outdoor patio)

We went to Frankie's at the Fish Fry for appetizers

We went to Gullies at the Fish Fry for dinner

Julia and Ethan were dared to eat red snapper fish eyes and they both did for $15.  Ethan also ate the tongue for $20.  It was the most disgusting thing to watch and I gaged as they did it.  Ethan said the eyeball squished in his mouth, but Julia said they didn't happen with hers.

The last night we ate at an Italian place right by the hotel called Caprico.  The last night it rained so I didn't take any pictures.
