Next stop - Coco Cay, an island owned by Royal Caribbean.  This is the tender that takes you back and forth, and the island itself in the background.  We decided to snorkel, & Robin is renting the gear and an underwater camera.  They have a plane "crash" and a couple ships canons out in the snorkeling area (I'm fairly certain they were planted) for the snorkelers to look at.  I scraped my arm pretty badly on the barnacles on one of the canons & it took months to heal. 
Lucky the sharks didn't come with all the blood in the water.....
Changing of the guard.  United States Coast Guard that is.  Back in U.S. waters at Key West, our last port.
Where, you ask, are the pictures from Key West.  Well - I neglected to bring the camera ashore and by the time we got out and about,  we were having so much fun that we didn't go back for it.  We stopped in at several pubs including Kevin's Irish Bar, Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville, Hogs Breath, Captain Tony's, and a few others - what a GREAT time.  We each got a nice straw hat (it's pretty sunny on the top floor of The Bull), and I got Robin this charm for her bracelet.  It's actually a silver coin recovered from a sunken treasure.  And it's probably a good thing the camera got left on the ship 50/50 I'd have lost it somewhere.

Our last night on the ship as we sailed back to Miami.  The moon shining through the clouds and reflecting off the water was a perfect way to end our first cruise together.
