Nice videos. You do seem to know how to have a good time. I think having you as a tablemate for dinner would be a blast. :D.

tch912,

Now I remember you... I was on NCL Dawn in 2012 too :)

Glad you had FUN in Punta Cana.. Remember SPF50..

BTW... Thanks for Lovie Smith :) ... GO BUCS!

Costa Maya

As we step out onto our balcony into the early morning sun, we are looking down the bow of the NCL Dawn.

A quick breakfast and we are soon disembarking in Costa Maya, our first visit to this Mexican port of call. A long leisurely walk along the dock then it is a quick Mexican cultural introduction before we are ordering up some adult beverages to really get our day going.

A few steps from Senor Frogs we watch some friendly dolphins interacting with their trainers then we make our exit to head to the beach.

Some pre-cruise research gives us the “Intel” we need for a FUN beach day. This information is confirmed as we soon discover we can get buckets of Coronas for $5.

I think we have found “Our Beach”.

I didn't know you were on Dawn, I stayed in the cabin because I was sick. I went out on all of the stops. I enjoyed Belize and Costa Maya. I will be in the same area as you when you go on the New Year's cruise. I will attempt to upload on youtube.

Well hopefully Lovey will get a good offensive coordinator. How downfall here was not letting whom he had run the offense. I think he will have an initial positive impact however.

A Krazy Lobster Day

From the port area we load up with about twenty other cruise passengers and for $3 per person we are off for a day at Manahual Beach.

In less than twenty minutes we are walking towards “The Krazy Lobster” a spot we had done research on before leaving for our cruise.

On a shaded beach with clear skies and a mild tropical breeze blowing with temperatures in the mid 70's, we enjoy a few buckets of mini coronas, chips, salsa and margaritas.

Later in the day we take a kayaking trip along the beach with views of the Norwegian Epic and her sister ship the Norwegian Dawn in the distance. A half hour massage on the beach for less than $15 dollars and I have some regret that we have to get back on the high seas.

For us, hanging in Costa Maya is what we want our lives to be all about. Good times, warm weather, good friends and cold beers along with a margarita or two.
