Spring Break in the Bahamas

We went to the Bahamas for Spring Break with the kids. We stayed at a nice hotel on Cable Island in Nassau. The kids met a bunch of kids the second day and had a blast hanging out with them the rest of the week. Craig and I barely saw the kids. We did a lot of relaxing by the ocean, ate a lot of good food, read books (I read 4 books: finished the 2nd half of The Hunting Games by Suzanne Collins, Roses are Red, The 8th Confession, both by James Patterson, and half of House Rules by Jodi Picoult). Craig read a book too...Roses are Red. (He has not finished a book in years because he reads half and doesn't like it, but if he would just finish it, he would love them.) We also did some gambling, well Craig did. He won a bunch of money and then ended up losing most of it, but still ended up ahead. Craig and Ethan went scuba diving twice so Ethan could finish getting certified. They had a great time, but I on the other hand was worried sick. Craig almost drowned during his certification 10 years ago, but decided to give it another try because Ethan wanted to do it. Craig started choking under water during the skills test because he and Ethan had to switch masks. Luckily, the instructor calmed him down and everyone came back unharmed. Overall, we had a great time. The weather was perfect and we had our phones off (international roaming).
