4th Cruise Port, Cozumel Mexico.

We tendered to shore, paired up with a nice older couple and caught a taxi to Chankanaab park for a day of snorkeling. The park has a great botanical garden that is rife with lizards, both Basilisks (the Jesus Christ lizard, because it runs on water), and gigantic iguanas.

(NatGeo video--I did see one, but it dashed off too quickly to photograph(on hind legs of course.))








Amy stopped to check what the calendar said…


The lagoon that gives Chankanaab its name. The beach is on the other side of the lagoon.


We had a good view of the cruise ship parking lot from our chairs…


We snorkeled until we were exhausted, then retired to our chairs for some reading…


Amy modeling her “Jungle Chic” fashion…


I had seen some strange tracks on the beach, and finally found out what had made them…


The QM 2 was berthed at the docks. Some lady on our tender complained ad nauseum about how they didn’t use a “Royal” font for the lettering…


After a showering, we watched the sunset from the balcony.


We dressed for a “smart casual” dinner…


This was our second-to-last night on the ship, with all the next day spent at sea…
