We were about an hour late arriving into Belize, so the wonderful Carnival organization dream team kicked into place yet again, ensuring those with booked trips got off the boat first.

More specific information on the ships facilities and further / other interesting data follows on the entry dated Saturday 8thMarch 2014.

6:30 am Monday morning. Sunday was spent getting used to our new surroundings. The day started off with a couple ofdelicious coffees from Ruby's Diner along withsofresh rest squeezed OJ later we hit a restaurant on the beach for breakfast burritos. They were very tasty. While I struggled with my hardware, the rest of the posse went on ahead for a beach walk. I was able to catch up to them at the Canuck bar. I guess you just can't keep them away from a good hockey game. The bar plays all the hockey games and is a magnet for Canadians. The bartendergrimaced when my Maria asked for a margarita. When Maria asked him why he started to say he was having a bad day. Maria stopped him and asked isn't the bartender supposed to hear ... read more
