CV1 Day 5: Cozumel, Mexico

The day began with breakfast in the buffet and some blogging (through Day 4). Then we went ashore with the intent of going into downtown San Miguel which is pretty much the only city of any size on the island of Cozumel. But we never got there. Marlene and I had some kind of silly … Continue reading »

MSC1 Day 12: Cozumel, Mexico

Our first trip to Mexico, over 20 years ago, included a day trip to Cozumel. We had a great day and since then Cozumel has always been one of our favorite places on earth. So yesterday, despite not feeling great, Jett rallied so that we could go ashore. We didn’t do much – had a … Continue reading »

MSC1 Day 3: Costa Maya, Mexico

Our first port of call was Costa Maya, Mexico. We have visited Costa Maya twice before and we still don’t like it.

We booked the sunset cruise, but cancelled due to a bout of Montezuma’s Revenge. But we did book – and took – a snorkeling cruise. Snorkeling in … Continue reading »

Cabo San Lucas: The Playa Grande Resort

  Since we missed the cold weather and all that ugly late-winter snow this year, some of you probably think that we didn’t need a spring vacation. You are probably right – we weren’t driven by that tired-of-all-this-crap weather weariness that we have experienced before. But one of the advantages(?) of owning a timeshare is … Continue reading »

Getting away from it all

Jett and I love Mexico. It gets a lot of bad press with the drug violence, but everyplace we have been has been safe, beautiful and fun. There is an air of freedom in Mexico that I haven’t felt many places in the US. It is a good place to get away from it all. … Continue reading »
