Costa Maya and Cozumel

Monday morning, we went and ate breakfast at the Royal Court.  After, Rachel waited in line for the princess gathering, Kate was so excited.  She especially loved Ariel.

Aladdin came through while we were waiting/

At 12:30, we docked in Costa Maya.  It was a little run down, but it was fun to see a little more natural instead of everything being touristy.  The highlight was finding a little open supermarket.  Jeff got to practice his Spanish and we shared a delicious mango and some other fruit.  Yum!!  So many of the houses were little tiny things, but most had a satellite dish.

We rented golf carts to drive around Costa Maya.  We drove to Mahahual.  We walked around the beach, did some shopping, and Whitney even found a coconut that she figured out how to open and drink the juice from.

We also brought Ty with us to Costa Maya.  He didn't love it, but did okay.

Cozumel

The next day, we went to Cozumel.  We got there about 8:30 in the morning and got ready for a full day.  First, we got a boat that had glass in the bottom so you could see fish under.  Then, we all went snorkeling around.  The guide had fish food, so we were swimming in a fish frenzy.  It was incredible (but made me a little claustrophobic to have fish all around me!!) 

Brian hadn't had his sunscreen rubbed in a couple days before on Grand Cayman, coming up with a great design!!

We also saw a seahorse, it was so tiny!

 We took the kids back to the boat for the afternoon, then rented Scooters.  We drove down to the tip of Cozumel, Punta Sur.  It was beautiful there.

When we got back on the ship, it was pirate night.  We found bandanas in our room, put our eyepatches on, and got ready bo party (Scott Left, Austin right)

Everyone was dressed up at dinner, even our servers. (Scott left, Austin right)  We went and got ice cream after the festivities (this was an almost nightly activity)

They had a special Mickey Mouse pirate show.  The kids loved it so much.  They thought it was hilarious and were really into it.

 These two days were so much fun.  The snorkeling was such an incredible experience, the pirate night was So fun, just a really fun couple of days!
