Vacation of a lifetime - Cruisin'

in #travel5 years ago

I just got back from a cruise that travelled to :

1. Nassau, Bahamas

2. Roatan, Honduras,

3. Cozumel, Mexico

4. Costa Maya, Mexico


We decided to get a suite overlooking the back of the boat (Ocean view) aboard the Allure of the Seas Royal Caribbean Cruise line. Here are some snippets from the cruise.


First, here are some shots from Nassau:






Next are some shots from Roatan, Honduras. There we were able to see beautiful scenery, as well as go on an excursion where we were able to play with sloths and monkeys!








Next we went to Cozumel, where we took a ferry to Playa del Carmen in order to do the Rio Secreto excursion. It was about a 45 minute ferry ride to Playa del Carmen. Let me forewarn you, if the water is choppy, do not get on the ferry. It was truly a "war-zone" so to speak. There were plenty of people that fell ill on the ferry because of the movement. Once we got there, all was well. I was not able to get photos of the underground excursion, for they do not allow you to take cameras down there. However, just to give you an idea of how cool it is, here are some shots I have used from Wikipedia's Common photos, which has free use, to give you an idea. The link to each photo is underneath them.






The final place we went to was Costa Maya. It is a quintessential port town. There isn't much near the town. In order to go on excursions, especially to see the Mayan Ruins, you have to take a two hour car ride to the site. We were quite tired from the other days, so we did not go on one. However, I was still able to get some good pictures of the town.







In addition to the awesome sites and excursions, we also purchased the unlimited dining and drinks package for the cruise. Here's a little bit of that as well, just to get your mouth watering!






What a fun cruise. It was a trip of a lifetime. I suggest to any of you if you are planning on taking a cruise, try out the Allure of the Seas. It is like a small city on the water. 


One love,
