Hamilton













We had breakfast in the dining room and then took the ferry over to Hamilton. It was a high speed ferry and the kids thought the wind in their faces was hilarious:) Coming into this side of the island was spectacular. It has to be one of the most beautiful island we have ever been to! We got on a bus to tour the island. On the way, our driver pointed out different aspects of the island. There are over 125 Churches and 95% of people attend church weekly. We also found out that they have zero unemployment and a average 2 bedroom house is about 1 million dollars!!!

We arrived at the aquarium and zoo and began to look around. The aquarium had many different types of fish that we had never seen before. It was very cool! The zoo part had the most amazing views of the ocean. The little playground was a hit and Dennis and the kids got to play a musical instrument kind of like a xylophone. There was this gorgeous waterfall with bright coral colored birds walking around.

On the way back, we stopped at the crystal caves. There were 88 steps down and 88 steps back up. The caves were beautiful!!

Back on board, we went down to watch a little bingo in the lounge. They let Colin yell BINGO and gave him a cookie as his prize! Too cute:) After dinner, we found an elf in our room made from our towels. Once again, the kids crashed!!!
