Carol and I took a week long cruise from Miami to the Carribbean. After breakfast onboard, I'm ready to start exploring. And where better to start than on the Explorer of the Seas!

The first stop was Belize City. From the rotating bridge, check out the Pelicans on the roof.

In the harbor at Belize you can see another cruise ship from our room's balcony.

In Costa Maya, Carol and I headed inland to the Mayan ruins at Chacchoben. Where Carol put her butt on the sacred temple.

Just kidding, the sacred part was up beyond the ropes.

The ruins at Chacchoben are magnificent, there are several different pyramid structures. Some are still not uncovered.
More pics??

The size of these cruise ships are phenomonal! And they keep building them bigger and bigger. That's ours on the right.

Our cruising dinner partners were a lot of fun, Don and Kathy from Indiana and Tom and Angela from Canada.
