Great review! We were supposed to board the Breeze today but had to reschedule, so this is helping me cope! Lol I also have really bad motion sickness when I'm a passenger in a bumpy car, but I'm fine when I drive. I guess we're just special! :D:D

Again a BIG thank you to all that are following. I read all your comments and really appreciate all your words!

Quick update....I took my newborn Nephew Max his first pictures

I'm a pretty proud auntie!!!!

 

On a very sad note my family member that went into hospice has passed now, but we knew that was going to happen and know she is no longer suffering [emoji26]

Now back to my review

 

It's our dinner night at the Carnival Steakhouse restaurant named Fahrenheit 555 Steakhouse which is $35 per person extra and worth every penny!!!

 

But first the sunset

Next a selfie

Nat looking nice

M wouldn't let me take a picture of him because I made him dress up...lol!

He settled down later

Nat is ready for her surf and turf

But first bread and spreads

Then a complimentary chilled tomato soup...it was delicious but then I like anything with tomato in it notice the martini in the background, well I gotta say one of the most potent things I had all cruise long!!!! To hard for me but good.

Now for my appetizer I opted for escargot. I've always wanted to try it but just the thought of the little animal in the shell that it once was just made me not want it anymore until today. I convinced myself that they are dead and cooked in garlic and butter with pastry and well went for it. It was different but really very delicious!!!! I will definitely have that again!

M and Nat had crab cakes I also had one.....plenty of crab meat and a little cake mixed together....really good! M also had shrimp cocktail

Next the main entrees.....steak

the biggest piece of meat I have ever had....I couldn't finish it....I tried, believe me I tried. this is Nat's first surf and turf and she didn't share! my sides

Congrats he is absolutely perfect and so adorable!!!!

 

I'm sorry about your family member passing away it's never easy even when you have time to prepare for it. My grandfather at 92 back in April was put into hospice, he passed away after 5 days but he had 3 good days with almost the entire family with him, even was able to meet my 6 month old son for the first time.

Last but not least desserts

I had the chocolate sampler

Here's a short video of it....my favorite was the banana ice cream and white chocolate one on the endhttps://vimeo.com/195393937

M is a big cheesecake.....eater, so he loved the New York cheesecake and even let me try a bite. picture of my martini but I can't remember the name of it

All in all it was one of my favorite meals of all time. The service was excellent and we were very well taken care of. Everything was delicious and everyone was so helpful and attentive.

 

Next we went to the main theater for the 88 keys show.....I really liked this show a lot. It had movement and lights and dancing and music but wait don't all the shows but this one all with different pianos

Can you tell I also like piano music and piano players. Secretly I would love to learn to play the piano....one day.

After the show, we headed out to atrium to listen to the the country duo. I loved them even though the girl was a little under the weather with a cold or something, they still sounded amazing. I really enjoyed listening to them many times their name was Y2Kountry with two bad apples

After sitting there and listeningNat decided to go back to the cabin and get ready for bed and I wanted to go dancing at the night club. All the while I forgot to tell you that the boat was really a rocking and we were in the middle of the storm. We went in the nightclub while everyone else were heading out. Turns out the club was flooded with a leak from the storm or something but what I didn't understand is the club in on the 5th deck....so how was the water getting in? this would be the only time we stepped in the club just to step out with the bottom of my dress all wet. But it was an nice looking place.

Walking towards our cabin we always passed by some of the art for sale....here are some of my favorites I don't know if I'm breaking some kind of copyright law in sharing these photos but please don't tell on me....Good night for now froggy kind of night

Back to my review.....it's Roatan, Honduras day!!!

 

I knew exactly what I wanted to do here. Thanks to some of the really good reviews on this site I knew if I ever had a chance to come here I would go to Little French Key!!!

We were so excited! I researched the web site, drooled over countless pictures online and even hipped up M about the beautiful beaches and crystal clear waters plus all the other inclusive things like the drinks, food, zoo, and snorkeling.

 

So we woke up early and ordered room service for breakfast. It was delivered promptly at 7:30 as asked. We had the usual cereal and bagels.

It looked like a wonderful morning

The port is Mahogany Bay and it is beautiful

This is the walk way up to the port side which is filled with shops and restaurants and bars also another walk way to a free beach.....maybe next time.

All we knew is that we would have to walk all the way across the port thru the taxi area up the hill and then down the hill towards the end of the road. I was concerned because I really didn't know what I was doing or where I was going so we asked a taxi guy and he offered to take us all the way to the paying center for $10 each...I kept on walking very clean and pretty with many rest areas and flowers and palm trees...yay! picture of the island of Roatan

Now this is where the trip started going downhill....remember that we had pushed Nat to go up the Mayan temple/pyramid and remember how I said she didn't want to....well today her leg was really hurting and she didn't want to walk and so she kept getting behind. We found the guys from Little French Key (you can't miss them...they have signs and all wear the same colored shirt, and they are super nice). He told us to follow him into a van he was filling up....well the night before had rained pretty bad and there was a lot of mud. I turned around and told Nat to be careful and try not to step on the slippery mud (like any good mom would) and right at that moment she slipped on the mud and fell on her right side. I ran and helped her up but the damage was done. Her whole right side was all muddy and her knee was bleeding from a small scrape and she was crying. Badly! We helped her up to the van and they gave me some water to wash and clean her up a little. She kept crying! They gave my a clean towel to try to dry her up also. She kept crying. And now her leg hurt even more! Needless to say I have no pictures of all this drama. I comforted her as much as I could then the van came to a sudden stop. Why? You ask. Sheep....a lot of sheep.

I have stopped for cows, dogs, even ducks before but first time for sheep. Nat thought that was neat.

We got to the payment area, which is a restaurant bar area. And we were in line when the rain came..... standing in line to pay mangrove I think

Continuing on the review we finally were able to get on the little transporting boat to the Little French Key island.

Nat showed me her boo boo

not to bad....I couldn't tell with all the crying going on.

Sitting there waiting for the rest of the group I just started snapping pictures of things around us name of the bar

bunch of old run down smaller boats....I didn't know if they worked or not

sail boat

see the rain in the distance....we would get hit pretty hard by it later on, but it's looks neat

The ride over was nice and smooth

beautiful views

one of the docks...I believe they are constructing another one with a nice large walkway. main entrance

first thing I looked for was the jaguar and lion enclosures but nothing. The guide said they had been moved to the main island because of all the strong storm that have come thru.

but there were other animals

the main house, I think

We were given a small tour and we choose an area in front on the bar and food area. I knew that sooner or later the rain would hit us so I decided to do a walk around and explode a little, M sat down in front of the water and Nat went in the water of course. palm trees!!!

playing follow the leader, at least we didn't have to be single file

I loved this little private beach area....good for those that want to nap and quiet time away from the noise

kayaks, I wanted to get one but I'm to scared that it would turn over and me not being able to swim it just would be good...better safe than sorry

a funny looking fruit of some sort. My aunt said it's called a NoNi which is a kind of bitter fruit that is mixed with others and supposed to be good for the blood. I don't know I just thought it looked weird and kind of resembled a cactus pear but we didn't see a cactus anywhere. some dining area
