Next stop - Nassau, Bahamas; Atlantis

Next stop - Nassau, Bahamas (really Paradise Island) to Atlantis for 5 days.  First we had to navigate the Philadelphia airport.  Of course Sophie rode most of the way

But then we let her out to explore, and whoosh....there she goes.  this is like "Where's Waldo" only you can play "Where's Sophie" (she stands out in pink).   You can see she is blurry....that's because she was moving so fast!  Come back!!  That flight isn't going to Nassau!

The flight down was ok.  A little screaming here and there, but lots of entertainment.  Sophie and mommy are watching a Sesame Street episode on the iPad.

And the boys were just being silly!

Meals were never dull.  Or calm.  Or quiet.  Here was a rare picture at breakfast of calm and quiet.  But Sophie didn't like to sit very long.  She wanted whatever was on your plate. Not hers.  Even if she had it on hers.  And she got mad.  Really mad.  Crying screaming mad if she couldn't have it.  So some of the meals were very short.  

But none of that kept us from having a ball.  This is one of the dozens of pools.  This is specially for little kids with floats to ride on...

And a shower for the bigger braver little kids!

Hi beach baby!

Now one of the coolest things about Atlantis is that there are giant aquariums filled with big and cool fish and sharks and Sting Rays every where.  This is right next to the pool at our building.  We loved watching the fish and sharks swimming around.

Sophie would get particularly excited when she saw the fish.  We will have some videos showing her so exciting and yelling (in a good way) at the fish to show you.

Noah got 2 tattoos.  The first one was really cool.  It was a sun, with all sorts of things around it. It only lasted a couple days in the water so he got a second tattoo  just before we left of a moon and stars--but it didn't come out as good.

This was just the beginning of our trip.  Stay tuned for more cool pictures coming up soon.
