My wife and I just got back from a cruise, with stops at Cozumel Mexico, Roatan Honduras, Belize City Belize, and Costa Maya Mexico. Didn’t really have any life experiences to speak of. Keep in mind, we were only at each country for roughly 8 hours at a time.
Dining with locals in Cozumel certainly doesn’t count as any type of experience. Every Average Joe in America has done that. Authentic Mexican food in a Mexican city is something everybody has done 8-10 times, at minimum, right?
Another non-experience we had was when we took a 2 1/2 hour river boat ride through a river in Belize. We only got to see manatees, iguanas, monkeys, spider bats, and many other forms of wildlife. No biggie. We’ve all done that.
We then stopped at a local village right off the river and had lunch. I was able to convince a few locals to exchange some of their Belize currency for some American dollars as my children love foreign money.
Then we spent the day at a beautiful (and I mean beautiful) beach in Honduras. Did I mention how beautiful that place was? There were also many rolling hills, very similar to West Virginia, right along the coast line. Gorgeous.
We did a bunch of nothing in Costa Maya, like watching a live wrestling match between two Lucha Libre tag teams.
Overall, very uneventful and certainly nothing worth adding to the experiences in my very sheltered, deplorable life.
Anything of note happen around here last week?
