I booked Journey to Cahal Pech through Shore Excursions Group for $92. Due to the lengthy water shuttle rides in this port, I would typically recommend booking long tours through the ship. But this excursion was not available to book through the ship. I have already done Lamanai, Xunantunich,…

Good morning. The Captain just announced we are going to be 30-60 minutes late arriving in Cozumel. Here are the views from my balcony.
Here is today’s schedule of events.
There’s just one in the coffee line. A few in the pick up line.

I spent last week on Carnival’s newest ship, Carnival Jubilee. During that time I was able to collect all of the Bar, Restaurant, and Main Dining Room menus. You won’t find a more complete or accurate set of menus than this: Carnival Jubilee Menus

Since NCL booked me on that great 11:45pm flight, I have the entire day to kill in Vancouver with no real plan. I need luggage storage and a way to get around town.

Good morning from Vancouver! Today is debarkation day. It was really hard to get into the Palace for breakfast. The line to get off of the ship goes right in front of it.
They started debarkation at 7:30 calling all guests with self-assist/easy walk-off. That’s me but I’m going to…
