Christmas Cruising!

We finally decided that we wanted to try a cruise and our niece Oanh kept saying how she never had any fun or good vacations so we took her along with us. Aside from some a weird rash she got after scuba diving, I think she finally had a good vacation!

December 14, 2008
   
the pool on the top deck, over looking new orleans before we set sail. i don't think any of us swam it even once.
   
corrupting our niece (making sure she had fun). :)
   
i think she's had too much fun.
   
mahahula, mexico, our first stop. we went scuba diving here and had some really bad mexican food.
   
guatemala, dude!
   
we hired a cab driver to take us around santa tomas, guatemala, just to see what things looked like away from the super touristy port area. the original goal was to go buy some cheap coffee, but after the 2.5 hour cab fare and the tip to the driver, it wasn\'t really cheap coffee anymore.
   
lots of banana and coconut trees everywhere. both dole and chiquita have huge processing plants in guatemala.
   
   
our cruise ship on the left, and the super old people cruise ship on the right. everyone coming or going to it had to be like 80+ years old.
   
in belize, we went zip lining and rappelling. we started off at the cave area and then hiked up from here.
   
vines and caves and zip lines, oh my!
   
ready for adventure!
   
wee!
   
wee!
   
oanh on the loose!
   
smile for the camera!
   
and again...
   
and again...
   
and again...
   
and again...
   
more wee!
   
do you notice how oanh's camera face never changes?
   
augh!
   
this was the second of the two rappellings and was a shorter drop than the first one.
   
belize city has no dock, so all the ships have to drop anchor about 2 miles out and you take small tender boats to the shore.
   
belize city, belize.
   
hanging out in cozymel waiting for our dolphin adventure to start.
   
unlike our first mexico stop, we got good mexican food in cozymel.
   
swimming with dolphins it tiring work.
   
cozymel, as seen from our cruise ship.
   
we couldn't get over how blue and clear the water was in cozymel.
   
a little hard to see in this pic, but this was a school of a few hundred tiny silver fish hop-scotching across the water. it was really neat to see.
