Dia 9
Wheels away
7 de janeiro de 2019, México ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C
Our last day with wheels started with a swim in the Caribbean. Warm but very seaweedy! Then breakfast with a view. Our next stop was Tulum Mayan site which is a coastal site so much more open than the jungle one yesterday. It was odd (but very nice!) to stroll round ancient ruins in the company of bikini clad young ladies!
We pushed on to Playa del Carman, checked in to our hotel and then returned the car. As we strolled back it started raining and forced us to seek shelter in a bar where Chris tried her first daiquiri. We ate out at a pizza place as it was just across the road.
No photos of that interesting stuff - just the ruins!Leia mais

A lazy day in the sun
8 de janeiro de 2019, México ⋅ 🌧 27 °C
Our 1st 'day off' of the trip! We sauntered round this busy resort and then spent a couple of hours on the beach swimming and reading.
Jo had told us about a restaurant she and Phil had liked when they were here about 4 years ago so we tracked it down and had probably the best meal of the trip so far. Ceviche for staters then a fish stuffed pita and finally a plate of delicious tempura prawns. A bit pricey but well worth it!
It's off to the island of Cosumel tomorrow on the ferry and after just one night there we will be boarding our cruise ship. Watch this space as they say.Leia mais

Island life
9 de janeiro de 2019, México ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C
We caught the 10am ferry over to Cozumel with a live band on board! Taxi to the swish hotel that turned out to be all inclusive! After a delicious fish taco lunch we sat on sun beds and read/ dozed before donning the new snorkel masks and going for a snork. We were immediately surrounded by a variety of fish and enjoyed it so much we booked for the snorkel trip in the morning.
We ate in the Italian restaurant that evening and then slept soundly in our 2 bathroom suite!Leia mais

All aboard!
10 de janeiro de 2019, México ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C
We woke to quite a gale blowing and were not surprised nor sorry to find our snorkelling trip cancelled. We therefore lazed about for the morning enjoying the 'free' breakfast and coffee shop goodies. Finally had to check out and take the taxi to the cruise terminal. Had to wait 2 hours to board but we eventually embarked and found our cabin. The ship, Magellan, is old but very nice and will suit us fine for the next 11 days. It is mooed in Cozumel town which seems a busy friendly sort of place. We could have spent longer here and in that all inclusive hotel!Leia mais

Sea days
11 de janeiro de 2019, Caribbean Sea ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C
Our first night on the ship, a really nice dinner but we retired early as the ship wasn't sailing till after midnight.
The next day was a sea day. Lots of activities and the compulsory lifeboat drill. An introduction to the Panama Canal (part 1 of 3!) and the Captains reception before the first show of the cruise. We then met our 6 other table companions for a gala dinner of 6 courses. They seem a nice bunch so dinner times won't be dull!
No photos for this footprint but as we are on Roatan island tomorrow (Honduras) I'll make up for it then!!Leia mais

Christine McNeill We must see your table companions in due course, please.

The Elephant in the Room
13 de janeiro de 2019, Honduras ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C
We woke to bright sunshine and a clear blue sea moored to the jetty at Roatan's capital, Coxen Hole. The whole island only has 50,000 inhabitants so C. H. is only a village really but does have an airport that I assumed was only for small aircraft till we noticed an Airbus 320 taxiing for take off! As tourism is 90% of their GDP I suppose it is not surprising.
We hired a taxi for a few hours and saw a few highlights, then went to a beach to snorkel. Excellent stuff! So many species of fish and interesting coral.
I was hoping to get a beer back in C. H. but couldn't bring myself to pay €6 for one - it's less than half that on the boat! So we went back on board and read while looking at this tropical paradise (except for the price of beer!).
The day ended with another excellent show and meal and an elephant in the room!Leia mais

First glimpses
13 de janeiro de 2019, Costa Rica ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C
Our first view of Costa Rica! We moored in the eastern town of Puerto Limon and after some delay set off to explore the town. A busy little place if a bit scruffy but it felt very safe and friendly. Really liked the modern cathedral and small peaceful park.Leia mais

Still steaming towards the East coast of Costa Rica so another lazy day at sea. Plenty to do on board and plenty of food and drink to consume. Can't be bad!

15 de janeiro de 2019, Colômbia ⋅ 🌬 30 °C
Another busy day on board the Magellan! It started with a bit of exercise for us both and finished with the Rat Pack cabaret. In between many cocktails were drunk ( special event by the pool, £1 a go- you couldn't say no!), some table tennis played, a quiz attempted (2nd again!), lectures attended and shows enjoyed. Have to get off the ship tomorrow - Cartagena, Columbia! Dam it, only one more sea day to go!Leia mais
