I thought I’d share a little bit about the cruise we took last week and the different locations we visited. The first stop we made was in Cozumel, Mexico. We arrived at Cozumel and got of the ship at about 9:30 am. The port we were at was your typical cruise-tourist boat. There were about half a dozen cruise liners within the area and the port had all of your touristy type of shops.

Our main activity of the day was snorkeling. Thanks to Patti from International Scuba in Carrollton, we decided to head over to Chankanaab National Park. The snorkeling there was incredible. The beach went right up to the coastline, but then you had to walk into the water on rocks. Other than that, everything was perfect. It was definitely the best snorkeling I’ve ever done. The park itself was pretty beat up by hurricane Emily. There used to be a museum, but it was taken down by the storm. The trees were pretty beat up and one of the shops had its roof blown away. There were a few iguanas throughout the park as well.

In the afternoon we did a little bit of shopping and pretty much took it easy. Tomorrow I’ll write about Calica and Tulum.
