Here are some pictures from our cruise! If you click on the "Click here to view these pictures larger" link then you can read the captions that go along with these photos. We had a great time! We ate and drank way too much and loved being able to see so many beautiful and amazing parts of the Caribbean. Our favorite island was Grand Cayman and I think we'd love to plan a trip back there. The island was clean and beautiful with the most amazing blue water you have ever seen. A close second would be our final destination of Tulum, Mexico which was also pretty amazing. We ended up visiting an eco-resort area with beautiful rustic hotels with open-air huts and wide open private beaches.
Once we were back the very next day was my first day at my new position. It was a little exhausting to get back to work after such a great vacation but I have really been enjoying my new role. I still have a LOT to learn but I can tell it is a great place to work and I know I'll gain a lot from the position and the people I will be working with.
Sim received a wonderful recognition upon his return to work! He received an achievement medal for all of his hard work during his deployment. This is a really great honor that will give him points towards advancement. Here is a picture of his award and his medal. There was also a letter detailing all of his efforts going above and beyond what is required of him. I am so proud of him!
