Suitcase Stories

Buenos Dias from Costa Maya, Mexico!

Our ship docked here this morning at 8:00am when DH and I headed out on a tour of the Chacchoben (pronounced “Chock-cho-ben”) Mayan Ruins. I wish I could share pictures with you as they were quite impressive. I promise I’ll share pictures when I return.

We have had a great time! If you’ve cruised before, then you know that the food is plentiful! If not…suffice it to say, it’s a bit over the top! Last night was the Captains reception and dinner. It’s a more formal night. DH had FOUR lobster tails! He doesn’t eat dessert, so he enjoys more entrees, you know? Actually, one of our dinner “neighbors” said, “I don’t want them to make any money on me!” I enjoyed ONE lobster tail and the Warm Melted Chocolate Cake. It was absolutely divine!

Now, I’m off to my “Detox Session”…I suppose they’ll tell me no more warm chocolate cake….but I’m pretty sure I can start that when I get off this ship.

Tonight is a Deck Party and a Mexican Buffet at midnight. I don’t know if I’ll be doing any midnight eating, but the music and dancing is great fun!

We set sail for Costa Rica this evening. I’ll check in again once I get there. Until next time, Adios Amigos y Amigas!!

Wow, Susan...how exciting is this!

I've never taken a cruise, but my aunt and her husband go all the time, and my mom finally went with them 3 yrs ago. She loved it!

Keep having a fabulous time, so we can live vicariously through you! :D I'll be checking back for updates...

Blessings!

Oh my gosh, that warm chocolate melting cake was fantastic. I had it at least 4 of the 7 nights. I just thought that it needed more ice cream so I had an extra scoop of ice cream as well.

One night they will also have some caramel apple pastry thing, it is fantastic. I cannot remember the exact name of it.
