Arrived in New Orleans a day early. Toured Bourbon Street, devoured beignets at Cafe du Monde, rode the street car through the Garden District for a view of the amazing mansions and of course had breakfast at Mother's Restaurant.

Found our cabin and enjoyed a bon voyage champange.

Lets check out the excursions.

Time for the abandon ship drill.

Now this is the way

to start a cruise

Our friends chose the ATVs.  Guess they didn't get the memo.

Arrived in Roatan, Honduras.

We were bused across the island to a private beach for a whole day of laying under a palm tree, snorkling, reading, sleeping interspersed with repeated trips to the BBQ and bar.

On our way to Cancun.  Notice the full moon.

In Cancun we took a long bus ride down the coast to the Tulum ruins.
