The second day of our cruise was a busy one! We were up early for our excursion in Nassau - swimming with dolphins!

Panama Jack is ready for action in the Bahamas |
Arriving at the dolphin sanctuary, after a gorgeous ferry ride from Nassau |
Waiting to meet our dolphin friend! |
There he is! Clifton (and his trainer)! |
Hannah is wearing her "I think I'm excited but also terrified" face |
Ready to begin! |
Clifton greeted us all with a splash. |
A big one... |
A round of applause for our new friend! |
Kisses from Clifton! (Note Hannah's keeping one eye on the dolphin at all times) |
Clifton enjoys a tummy rub |
Our turn to pet him! |
And rub his belly! |
Hannah's getting braver... |
Dolphin hugs! |
Kisses from Clifton! |
Megan's turn for a hug! |
Her first kiss from a boy! Even Daddy can't get too mad about this one. |
Grandma's turn! |
Pretty proud of herself :) |
Two thumbs up for swimming with dolphins! |
Dancing with Clifton! |
Megan's turn (she requested Mom's assistance) |
Mom's turn! |
Grandma fed him a fish. He was pretty happy about it. |
Lots of love for our new dolphin friend. |
Tummy rub |
Checking each other out |
Checking out his pearly whites |
My main man, Clifton |
Clifton waves goodbye |
We spent some time checking the rest of the place out after our swim. Of course, cats were a major highlight... |
Because we don't see those every day or anything...rrrright. |
After we got over the fascinating cat display, we enjoyed watching the sea lions swim |
...and lounge around |
...and fight. Naughty sea lions. |
This house and boat are rumored to belong to Tiger Woods |
All the ships lined up in port - ours is the second from the left |
Megan was sure to let everyone know our agenda for the day |
Hannah's message was more subtle |
Once we got back on board, it was time to clean up and get ready for PIRATE NIGHT! Quite a big to-do on all Bahamian Disney cruises.
Ready for a night of swashbucklin' (disclaimer: no idea what that means) |
Overlooking the pumpkin tree in the lobby - all decked out for Halloween |
The littlest pirate waits to meet Peter Pan |
All of our favorite Neverland friends were out and about for Pirate Night |
Posing with Peter |
Arrrrrrr! |
We have the cutest pirates. I mean, really? |
Family photo opp with Captain Hook and Smee |
Hey Tink! |
Grandma & Grandpa got to meet Tinkerbell too |
These gluten-free mateys enjoyed a wonderful pirate dinner |
Fact: gluten-free pizza is the official food of pirates |
Me and my pirate buddy |
We got a towel monkey in our room that night - the perfect pirate companion |
Meeting Pirate Goofy |
Waiting on the promenade for the fireworks to begin |
Fireworks over the open sea? How cool is that! |
