Zihuatanejo/Ixtapa

First thing I'd like to say is yay to my new blogger template. The only problem with it, is that I can't make a new post right from my blog. I won't explain :P

Anyways, back to blogging about my vacation that happened months ago. So at this port we got to go snorkeling again! Woot! This time however, it was a small village so the port wasn't big enough for the boat to dock. So we got on smaller boats that were on the ship and went to shore that way. It was really nice there! I'd say out of all the stops, this one was the best. One thing that I would like to point out, is the number of armed soldiers at the dock was a lot higher than I expected. To be fair, I wasn't expecting there to be any armed guards.

Just so you know, I'm not saying much about the morning because I don't remember much of a morning. I'm pretty sure I slept through 90% of it! So we got to shore and we were waiting to start our excursion. We got to ride small boats again, but this time we headed for a boat that wasn't quite as large as our cruise ship. None the less it was still fairly large. Anyways, once everyone was on the boat, we set off to go to our snorkeling area. The sky was clear the scenery was beautiful. It was very relaxing. Once we started snorkeling, I realized that this was much nicer than the first time. The first time the water was kinda murky and green. Here the water was clear and much less green! Still very salty though :P

After the snorkeling was done, we set back to the dock. The crew of the boat were very friendly. Overall, this was the best snorkeling trip we had gone on the entire trip. Well, in my opinion. We got back, we went shopping in town. It wasn't too far. There we bought vanilla. Lots of vanilla. And apparently high quality vanilla! After that we went back to the boat and ate dinner. After that I'm pretty sure we hung around maybe walked around the boat a bit, and then headed for a show! Unfortunately I don't remember what the show was... I think it might have been a hypnotist. It was very entertaining to watch. There was a safe for everyone to enjoy show and a show for adults. Nothing terrible really happened in the adult one. But I guess it was a little less safe for kids. I somewhat regret not volunteering for the earlier show, I think it would've been interesting to be hypnotized. Oh well!
