Nothing could hold in the amount of excitement within us waiting for this week to arrive. It was time for our annual family vacation and this year we would be heading down the Mexican Riviera on a 7 day cruise! Last year we had an amazing time spending a week at the Kaanapali Resort in Maui and we were anxious for the good times ahead of us this year.
We started off early Saturday morning with a road trip to CA to meet up with the rest of the family. We love road trips!
After spending the night in CA the next morning we headed to the port to set sail on our journey. We had a great time on formal night going out and enjoying the beautiful ship. Including a little dancing!
Lorenzo loved dancing with Mandy. Talmage also enjoyed his dinner very much….
Our first port of call was Puerto Vallarta. We arrived a little late into port but that didn’t spoil our fun out along the beach. We found a great spot on the beach in front of this private restaurant. Everybody loved the water weenie and we also went parasailing! It was so much fun. We even had time to do some shopping and grab some authentic Mexican tacos while we were there. mmmm
Our next port of call was Mazatlan. Our deep sea fishing adventure there was a bit of a let down. Luckily Colton gave them a piece of his mind in Spanish and was able to save us from paying up the nose. It wasn’t our favorite port but we managed to do some good shopping. We love a good deal. After Mazatlan our next stop was Cabo San Lucas. We absolutely loved Cabo. We arrived to a beautiful sunrise.
We rented some Kayaks and took off across the bay to Lover’s Beach and the Arch at Lands End. We had a great time!
Of course the days at sea were great. We would play on the slide, mini golf, dance, relax in the sun, and much more. We had an amazing time. And to top it all off we were the stars of the show on the final night as Carnival Legends Garth Brooks and Britney Spears!
Here’s a little video of some highlights as well:
