Ola from Cozumel! With every stop we make, it gets progressively hotter and more humid. Holy cow...how do the locals do it?! I thought we had heat and humidity in Charleston but the Caribbean in August is miserably hot and humid.
Today we are headed to San Gervasio (Mayan ruins) and the Mayan Cacao Company.
San Gervasio is where the Mayans worshipped the goddess Ix Chel, goddess of fertility. Because this was a place where people came to ask for life, there were no Mayan human sacrafices made on these grounds.
We made a little stop at El Mirador (Lookout Point) and then we were off to the Mayan Cacao Company. We learned a little bit of the history of Mayan chocolate making and got to sample some really delicious chocolate and frozen chocolate. The frozen chocolate was particularly welcomed because did I mention it was H.O.T.?!?!
Back on board we had a few cocktails before dinner and tonight's show, Frozen in Time. Its an ice show based upon Hans Christian Andersen's stories. The costumes and skating were quite remarkable. We stopped by the Schooner Bar for a night cap (or two or three or...) and sang along with Andy.
Tomorrow is a day at sea as we make our way back to Port Canaveral.
