Mexico Cruisen




The Carnival Splendor was our home for a week.

We celebrated our 25th Wedding Anniversary on a Mexico Cruise.
Wow, what a fun-filled packed week of spoiling ourselves it was!


Danny found it very easy to relax, and was a little burnt after the first day.

What is it about those towel-animals that make me so darn happy?

We enjoyed dinner every night with our new friends: Andy and Anita from Thailand (we have an open invitation to their home) and Eddie and Rovino from San Diego.
We love meeting people from other countries.


Our crazy MaƮtre d' would entertain us along with the waiters every night..... they always got us up to shake it, but it doesn't take much ;)



Don't forget to step outside and enjoy a pretty sunset. This one is leaving Cabo.


Enjoying a bottle of Opolo's cab on the deck. A gift from our friend's for our anniversary.


It was extremely hot the first day in Cabo, so we stayed on the ship.
It turned out to be a great day on board with so many people at port.
The view of the arch at breakfast.

The lost arch from our cabin window.

Second day in Cabo, heading for Cabo Wabo to see if Sammy's around.


"Si Senior, they are Cuban cigars, you can trust me"

10am and we're having shots of Cabo Wabo Blanco. Smooooth.

Peurto Vallarta on Friday. Took a wild cab ride to downtown.
Ate fabulous fish tacos at Punto V.



These two were determined to help us have a good time.


The beaches in PV are so gorgeous and I look
forward to returning to see the finished results, as they are in construction.
It's obvious they do not have CA regulations :)


Is this to code?

Note the the physical transformation that happens in Puerta Vallarta..... it's out of your control.

After strolling around the hot streets of downtown PV we head towards the port and end up at a popular cantina. More food, tequila and beer..... And yes, photo ops of Americans in Mexican sombreros.Danny made the photographer pose for him.... doesn't he look thrilled?

Yes, we even have fun in the glass elevators. We were taking pics of each other, and a man offered to take it of us.... hysterical.

This man kept bringing me food and drinks, I don't know what he's up to.


Bloody's in the morning get you right.

The happy couple.

Robert Mondavi $36 on the cruise, $8.99 at Costco, Memories.... priceless.



Watching a comedy show.


Cheers to another 25.
