... were a total of 8 divers. In this group of divers the youngest<br>was 14 and the oldest was in his 50's.<br>Wow what a way to make a living,<br>Then back to the ship to cast off at 6pm.<br>The weather was hot and humid about 92 degrees.<br>A nice refreshing dip in the pool was a great way to cool off.

... br>The history of Acapulco (per the tour book), is a city of about 700,000 people. This became <br>a major port back in the 1500's due to the arrival of Hernan Cortez,<br>which at that time many treasures were shipped to Mexico City and on to Spain. After World War 2 this became a favorite<br>vacation spot.More to come!

... r i klungor mot dig så fort du dyker upp. Till mexikanska försäljares försvar så vänder dom oftast om vid ett "nej".<br><br>Jag gick längs Dödens Avenue fram till Solens Pyramid (väldens tredje största). I klättrade upp för trapporna och insåg snabbt att den var jobbigare att klättra uppför än vad det såg ut, jag var väl värd vilan på toppen. Jag gick ner igen och gick upp på Månens Pyramid också. Man kan inte lämna klättringsbara saker oklättrade. <br ...

... el calor era sofocante, mi marino me arrastraba a todos lados jalándome de la mano y abriendo paso entre la gente ^^<br>Nos divertimos mucho, Luisito (el oficial del barco de quien me enamoré perdidamente) se aventó del bongie, en el antro nos vocearon y mandaron saludos, hicimos tal escándalo que todos supieron dónde estábamos. <br>No tengo mucho que decir porque lo arruinaría, pero nuevamente... Si Acapulco hablara!!

... beach & some snorkelling, then back to watch the sunset - they have built a big amphitheatre on the top of a cliff over the ocean so you can watch the sunset in style. Later it was time for the Clavadistas - they really spin out the performance, trying to build it up as much as possible, with lots of false starts and it is over so quick, filming it was a complete nightmare - still, wouldn't catch me doing it!

... speak fluent English. The hotel has a colourful interior, a pool with seating areas, and spacious modern rooms, with cable TV that are kept in pristine condition. Their rates are between 300 peso for a double and up to 900 peso for a suite that sleeps up to six people, but you shouldn't have any problems in getting discount on ...

It was nice to see a show that is new to us. It was then back to the room for Nik, Regan and me. Kelsie went to go to a "Boys and Girls Chill" in Ocean Quest at 10:15. Tomorrow is an at sea day. Hopefully, we can all sleep in!

Was expecting tacky central like Cancun, but actually it's not nearly as bad. The bay area is lovely, although beaches are quite dirty, but the surrounding hills make it very picturesque. It has an old-worldy feel of glamorous movies and cocktails, and ...

... were soon onboard our first long journey in Latin America. It was a really easy introduction. Comfortable seats, a couple of movies and only 5.5 hours. Still it dragged and I never thought it would end. The scenery was amazing as we climbed up through the mountains and into the cloud layer and back down to the beach.
