Day 3 Nassau











So Monday was our official first full day on the cruise ship. We woke up and were soon in Nassau. We ate breakfast first at the buffet on the 9th deck. Then we got ready to head off the boat for our excursion. We chose to do the Atlantis beach excursion. We took a bus to the resort. Once we got there a tour guide led us around the resort pointing out different things. After about 30 minutes she left us on our own. Austin and I decided to explore the aquariums first. They were pretty cool but I guess we were a little let down that they really weren't as nice as the aquarium right here in New Orleans. It was sorta hard to follow and things weren't labled. There also wasn't a lot of information to even read to know what you were looking at. The tanks also seemed a little dirty. After we completed both aquariums we decided to head to lunch. We had lunch tickets provided by Disney but the only place we could find was this one little fish/chicken stand right by the beach. We both had fried chicken. It was ok but nothing to really rave about. Plus it was hot and we were surrounded by seagulls. After that we walked along the beach...the water was pretty but the beach was nothing to get excited about. It seemed dirty compared to Florida beaches and it was pretty crowded. After this we were ready to head back to the boat to rest. We were both dissapointed with Atlantis. We would never choose this excursion again. It was not worth the money at all. Nassau seemed like a pretty neat city. I think next time I would rather take a bus tour or explore on my own.




Once we got back on the boat we got a snack and chilled for awhile so that we could be ready for dinner. Our dinner this night was at Triton's. I have to say this restaurant was awesome as well. I got lobster mac n cheese and it was delicious. The desserts were awesome too! After dinner we went to the show "Toy Story the Musical". It was adorable! It made me wish Colby was with us though b/c I think he would have really enjoyed it. It was really well done!
