Our cruise left out of Galveston, Texas. We got to port in Roatan, Honduras where we held monkeys, sloths, and took the kids snorkeling for the first time. Abby and Wynn didn't love how hyper the monkeys were but I loved it! The snorkeling in Roatan was the best snorkeling I've ever seen. I didn't know there could be brightly colored coral so abundant and close to the surface. Both Sydney and Wynn did great and picked it right up. They even handled it super well when they got some water in their snorkels and didn't freak out or stand on the reef. We ported in Mahahual or Costa Maya Mexico and went to see the Dzibanche Mayan ruins. Its amazing how tall they were and quite a workout to climb all the way to the top. When we stopped at Cozumel, Andy and I went diving and the kid stayed on the boat with Vic and Maxine. We got to see sharks, turtle, ray, tons of fish, coral, lion fish (that the dive master kills since they are invasive) and a giant eel. Like 4 feet long and 8 inches wide... I was nervous about him when he came out of his hole even more than the sharks. We all had fun and got to do new things. Andy and I even got to try the surf rider on board. Other activities included ice skating, mini golf, trivia games, karoake, dance lessons, shows, kids club, themed meals, parades, swimming, water slides, and more.
Sydney's favorite thing about the cruise was trying the water slide.
Wynn liked the kids club. They had a rock n roll party he was really excited about. They got to dance with the characters, have their face painted, and even get flashing rings.
Abby loved the kids club the most! She never wanted to leave and even though she missed lots of naps and got tired, she always perked up if we took her to the club!
Vic and Maxine celebrated their 43rd anniversary while on board too. It was really special to have them with us on the trip. We love cruising. There is something for everyone and are so grateful we were able to go.
