My 7 Days Caribbean Cruise in Pictures

Hey everyone! Recently I went on a 7 days Caribbean cruise with my boyfriend and his mom. Ever since, I've been preparing a travel series (packing, beach essentials, in-flight essentials, etc.) for you guys. I thought I would also share a few of my favorite snapshots in case you all are interested!

The cruise was 7 days with 4 stops : Grand Turk, St-Thomas, San Juan and Half Moon Cay. This was my first cruise so I did loads of research before hand to help me pack and know what to expect. We had a fantastic time and I would definitely love to go cruising again!

We chose to go with the Eurodam from Holland America. I truly enjoyed my experience and I would like to try other cruise companies in the future to compare and chose my favorite. (Disney being high on the list!) One of the big plus I found while cruising was the amazing food everyday on the ship. I decided not to include any pics of the food in here because I know not everyone is into that. Instead I'll dedicate a full separate post on the food so if you're not interested, you can skip it!

 I really love this picture of the boyfriend and I! It was at the pier in San Juan

The pier in Saint-Thomas. This was the catamaran we went snorkeling on that day.

That's pretty much it! I have over 700 pictures of the trip, but I tried my best to select just a few. Also I didn't include any with my mother in law because I'm not sure she would like to be on here, but I do have a few of my favorite pictures with her in it. I might add a few in the future if I get her ok! Let me know if you've ever been on a cruise and what your thoughts were! Would you ever go again? Hope you all enjoyed this post and have a wonderful week!

Recent Snapshots : Christmas, Fishing, Dressing up, New Camera, Nails and more

Hey everyone! :) Long time no post! Sorry about that. I have been quite uninspired lately so I haven't blogged much since Christmas. I thought I would ease myself back into it with an easy picture spam post and an little bit of an update at the same time.

I had a great holiday season in Montreal with my family and I got a new camera for Christmas from Mathieu which I am super excited about. We went fishing on ice and to Las Vegas for a week. I have since  started my winter trimester and things are going well so far. We had a few dressed up events in the last month and I got a few dresses for that which was exciting. Basically, nothing major has happened recently, only a few good times with friends and family :)

Oh and I learned how to make gradient nails using makeup sponges! I'm kind of addicted and can't stop making them with different color combinations :P

So here are a few snapshots of recent events and random other things! The picture quality should have improved in comparison to my old camera, at least I hope it did! Sadly the lighting in my house is still horrendous (no worries, we're moving out of here soon!), but other than that the photos should look a lot better. ♥

Cheesy mirror picture with super dirty mirror :P I love that shirt though

Downtown Montreal during the winter time ♥

Having fun with closeups with the new camera :D

Selfie :)

Fishing on ice

My favorite dog breed ♥

Our room at the Aria Resort and Casino in Vegas, that bed is the coziest thing I have ever slept on!

The parmesan truffle fries from Gordon Ramsey's new restaurant in Vegas! Delicious:)

And probably some of the best burgers we have ever had!

Godiva cheesecake from the Cheesecake factory. OMG!

Little present I got myself while in Vegas. I absolutely adore it :)

Current nails

Amazing surprise Christmas gift from the boyfriend ♥

Been super into making loads of salads lately, this one was particularly yummy

Anyway this is pretty much what I have been up to lately. I have a February favorites coming up soon, so if you're interested, keep an eye out for that!

Hope you all had a wonderful beginning of 2013 so far :) See you in my next post!
