Family Cruise May, 2010





We just got back from our 7-day Mexican Riviera cruise on Sunday. We cruised on the Mariner of the Seas, one of Royal Caribbean's cruise ships, and visited Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan, and Puerto Vallarta. It was a lot of fun



Here, we are at the very front of the boat on the helicopter landing pad.



This was our state room. It was small, but we didn't want to spend a lot of time here anyway. When you closed the door and turned off all the lights it was pitch black. We could sleep forever in the room because it was hard to know what time of day it was when it was so dark.



These pictures were taken on a beach at Cabo San Lucas. We had to tender (meaning we had to take small boat from the cruise ship to land). Then we walked close to a mile to get to this beach.

In Mazatlan, we visited an aquarium. They had a shark feeding show where the man feeding the sharks actually got into the shark tank and fed them by hand. It was crazy! In this picture, we're in front of the sea turtles.


Here's my family all together before going to the dining room for dinner one evening.



These pictures were taken in Puerto Vallarta. We found a nice beach with these nice cabana things.





Here we are before one of the formal dinners.




This was our waiter, Mevin. He was so nice. He brought Carson chicken finger and french fries every night for dinner.


This is Foustino Walters. I think most of us called him Walter (or maybe that was just me?). He was the assistant waiter who brought us bread and refilled our water glasses.

This man was the waiter for the table next to us. Every night he would come over and talk to Andrielle. Here she is trying to share one of her french fries with him.
