    We were on Carnival Dream. Absolutely delighted with the programme and service we received!

    Great stuff! Was that Tulum? Did you get information on the carvings & temples? It is fascinating.

    Couldn't book Tulum into our plans. That was Altun Ha. Great guides with a lot of information. I was particularly interested that the archeologist who had led the research & preservation was from the Royal Ontario Museum, just two hours away from here.

    Ah, thank you for the clarification......

    Good photos. It appears you had quite an enjoyable time. What areas, Mayan, did you get to visit while on land?

    We were at Altun Ha in Belize and an un-named site in a preserve at Cozumel. There was a lot more to see at Altun Ha to be honest.

    Glad you had a great time on your cruise Father Bill. The wife and I have been on 23 cruises and counting (benefits of living in Florida and being a travel agent). My first public kilt wearing ever was a Captains Dinner on the Carnival Paradise. I was a bit apprehensive but I received so many compliments I soon felt very comfortable. Also glad you liked the Dream, we have sailed her twice. My wife officiated at our best friends sons wedding on that ship and our daughter was married on the Freedom. The cruise lines put on a spectacular wedding for a fair price. But I digress, welcome back and I hope you do many more in the future, I find cruises are like kilts in that once you do/have one you just gotta do/have more!... ...Faithwalker...
