Cruise to Mexico

Paul and I decided to take a cruise to Progreso and Cozumel from Galveston. We wanted a trip before Jack graces us with his presence. Kelly and Tracy watched Addison for 5 days while we cruised the Caribbean. They did awesome with Addie and Addison has been asking for them daily ever since we came home. The trip was a lot of fun and I captured some good pictures!


Chilling on the boat... we had two "fun at sea" days. Where we could relax and watch the water.





In Progreso, we took an excursion to Merida a bigger urban city near Progreso. We took a bus to Merida and had a tour guide show us the sites and places to shop. There were iguanas hanging out in the trees and on fences. Here is a shot I got from the bus window.




An entire family on a motorcycle! At least they all have helmets.


This little kitty was hanging out where they took us to shop in down town Merida.


Some shops sold "Maraquech" which are basically bedazzled beatles! Apparently, it was all the rage during Mayan times. The were LIVE beatles with little fake gold leashes. You were suppose to wear them around on your lapel. I passed, but Paul actually held them!



In Cozumel, we went to Chankanaab which is a beautiful white sand beach with excellent snorkeling!




The snorkeling was by far my favorite part of the whole trip. It was like being in an aquarium and there were lots of fish to see! I had an underwater camera and got some pictures!





The fish were REALLY close... Paul checks them out in the background.


Some people did "Snuba" near us... it's half snorkel half scuba.




There were several statues that were placed under the water to swim out to and see.
