Photo TR: Caribbean Cruise with TPR!


ParkTrips

Recommended Posts

OK so I am going to do my own version of the trip report that covered the past week. As you have probably seen, I joined Robb, Elissa, Elissa's parents and the Jew on a cruise through the Caribbean. This was my first cruise and I was absolutely amazed. Easily one of, if not *the* best vacation I have ever taken. I am already anticipating my next trip across the seas.

 

Anyways here are some of my photos that I have decided to share, trying my best not to duplicate Robb's photos.

IMG_2722.JPG.5a64c5ac24c322a4c6c0f773a64af9b8.JPG

If I recall, this is where Elissa discovered the trivia answers, which is why we won so many times! That's all for day one, not much excitement but more to come!! Check back tomorrow for more =)

IMG_2721.JPG.d8756c3b2133cc68128b8c960437fb0f.JPG

Promenade at night, all lit up and such

IMG_2718.JPG.a4e26a9b12c5936a70c05fa317c87815.JPG

Curves were EVERYWHERE... like on me :)

IMG_2714.JPG.388c3b6ee832bae9a589f3df3835e0a5.JPG

darn, we didn't catch any of the shows.

IMG_2672.JPG.09424b6cf50170411b93552a31070dcd.JPG

Tons of art was placed in the ship, as discussed in the "Building of.." video =)

IMG_2670.JPG.27ed55af08cd5f5799cbb52df9f0c291.JPG

The interior was beautiful

IMG_2669.JPG.d73be32d4d075633863b10cf6ca59953.JPG

Here's the Promenade area, it was really cool. I still think of the ship as a floating Vegas resort.

IMG_2701.JPG.82f8b3ac21d22d98a651655502cd1eb6.JPG

If only I got a nice shot of the people who moon'd us...

IMG_2699.JPG.970ab14102b28a1634e098558cb5d553.JPG

Bye bye cruise terminal! See you in a week =(

IMG_2696.JPG.37619027d50c79d55e542f61faca97d3.JPG

Red skies at night...

IMG_2678.JPG.31e26acde45bfb565dd9f9ab6da9aeae.JPG

This was the emptiest I saw the pool during the day all week

IMG_2686.JPG.d84351feab0a2233d6c196df89c38e3e.JPG

The Port of Miami was pretty big, but nothing compared to what we saw pictures of from Asia..

IMG_2685.JPG.8abe6436d712ab4965c9d9fc5e4224a5.JPG

The pretty sunrise over Miami, note the abundance of cranes!

IMG_2666.JPG.b5b9290f5dcdc160e21ee09580e8ba06.JPG

That is about the only nice-looking part of Miami...

IMG_2667.JPG.a3023b80d1403d7df3642da79b8312ec.JPG

Jewey and I shared a nice little stateroom

IMG_2825.JPG.e7f3d77ed446258c71c346da69384855.JPG

That's our ship, the Explorer, as seen leaving Belize

^He didn't actually touch a book or anything, did he? Or did they have some coloring books on the shelves?

 

That is a cool looking ship. I know nothing about cruises and this stuff, and am not sure if I'd go on one, as the idea of being trapped on a ship with a bunch of people sort of scares me, but I have been enjoying these PTRs.

Here are photos from Day 2 (at sea) and Day 3 (Belize). sadly I can't replicate Joey's noise from the canopy tour in pictures...

IMG_2856.JPG.94130a3efe5dafaf4601e6171079b530.JPG

That's all for today, I leave you with the towel animal of the day...

IMG_2855.JPG.2c7f3d7bfe9f98cc29494a5fc52824a5.JPG

You can see it in the background, but here is Joey killing some dude boxing

IMG_2854.JPG.96e58b46c5b9da2d6824ae522a068e81.JPG

Elissa's dad did AWESOME on his first try at tennis =)

IMG_2852.JPG.357b96de9c9de83b221e18db94452f8e.JPG

Robb and Jewey playing tennis..

IMG_2819.JPG.9e317642224e840542d07625be08597b.JPG

we've got quite a long trip ahead of us

IMG_2817.JPG.1b1f59fd2953512cf187218b90087b89.JPG

so long, Belize

IMG_2816.JPG.9cb6572f5ede165b7cbcaebc5a7b4fc1.JPG

me on the boat... yay?

IMG_2813.JPG.c8094d45fc723089018b0446921f6301.JPG

The sun was going down... Belize got more action on the trip than I did =(

IMG_2812.JPG.e4d824cfd3ff89b1eacbef748443178f.JPG

in line, here is where I spotted the diamonds chick... "She'll pretty much have to"

IMG_2811.JPG.f23d8c3848307c00cbc7e62917bb2b4e.JPG

This would be our return boat, much larger than the one we took to shore

IMG_2810.JPG.e9f563d43f099b286eccacc336e1a677.JPG

back on the docks ready to tender

IMG_2807.JPG.be0b07289808b45696e387b8a6dd7c96.JPG

At least Belize was VERY Coke-friendly. I don't think any of us saw any reference to Pepsi (that's how it should be!)

IMG_2806.JPG.ba38ac4c5318f6d08fd6424e421e6668.JPG

Here we are back in Belize City, almost back to the port

IMG_2805.JPG.ad40023985664cb2fb1db2b0f55d78fe.JPG

haha it says "lubricants"

IMG_2804.JPG.dd875628622f223804a4a5dfbeae39d3.JPG

wow, those look almost decent

IMG_2803.JPG.4921f8176627f6507b7cf98e7723dac8.JPG

You don't see that in America..

IMG_2801.JPG.06b40e84d0e0618529078b205b36f39c.JPG

All good tours include food..

IMG_2799.JPG.d65dd34aff956bd7ff3e4b1be4c80beb.JPG

About time to leave the jungle encampment

IMG_2792.JPG.e9492b734fe2f0ea2ff718b89312a9f5.JPG

NOT Robb, just some random dude

IMG_2790.JPG.8e697e8500a63607dee12bbe3ab3b902.JPG

wow this is really turning into the Robb thread...

IMG_2789.JPG.c70bd8d283aaf23d46f015ca7c8692be.JPG

Robb's ass

IMG_2786.JPG.c9e3a86573c6087863055292e0b77a97.JPG

Robb again... braking like a wuss

IMG_2779.JPG.2ab6d9e228835b933021bfa2ca34dc44.JPG

Robb is ready to jump off the precipice

IMG_2768.JPG.28f1a79bb7ffc5a41b7500b78ec051f0.JPG

I'm not entirely sure how all of that worked, but I didn't die so I was happy

IMG_2762.JPG.d12a08b2ae6f8f538b0e350166177a25.JPG

Here's the first repelling station where jew made his sound

IMG_2760.JPG.4d7612511c6420ae8ff9a1495ab90679.JPG

... and one of the many cliffs

IMG_2757.JPG.784404beaec5bc84399b0f6dfecacee8.JPG

so.. yea... jungle

IMG_2754.JPG.984917bac0c7da0c396623cb8d7393dc.JPG

Finally, we're at our remote destination

IMG_2752.JPG.ff398a9cb3e6dbe22bdecd62f6674bf2.JPG

more foliage

IMG_2751.JPG.c894b2be59dcb9a03a8d6b6197b3d4b0.JPG

When the locals get bored, they stare at the mountains. Or at least out tour guide did..

IMG_2749.JPG.5c95df1e1eff4f6770ca9de7b6d6ccbf.JPG

Random photo of Belizean mountains and proof that they have power

IMG_2748.JPG.4e2ed5dde9713658526ed8536d1e3952.JPG

I really hope the bottled water isn't pumped out of there

IMG_2746.JPG.3aa5bad11909ad73a341d01663668d92.JPG

Then we saw about 30 minutes worth of wetland-ish terrain with not much on it...

IMG_2744.JPG.4bc146ada7b4d1325cb25bd4cb998578.JPG

see what I mean?

IMG_2742.JPG.f7b31630ffa708687f7147384aa35037.JPG

The empty lot looked nicer than most of the homes

IMG_2741.JPG.068daf45279b5dd4d66c347c416d1483.JPG

That's probably the tallest building in Belize..

IMG_2739.JPG.1d66b9a0162bbe1987fcb1fe21e786fb.JPG

Belize may not have well paved roads... but they do have an internet cafe!

IMG_2738.JPG.7f03b7215aacec31148f91adb332f303.JPG

Welcome to Belize (Day 3)

IMG_2735.JPG.771c171a71740ee386e2393df669cd5b.JPG

I liked the art on display

IMG_2734.JPG.c6ddcf30addf21b4496137b3c23e2f8e.JPG

I don't remember the purpose of the photo, but it makes Elissa look fat so I figured I'd post it =)

IMG_2733.JPG.89823997ab9ff5b5f7280464f5b19f3d.JPG

"I have an N..."

IMG_2732.JPG.03cad5aa250159286f37be7f4a6a4f2f.JPG

Elissa's Dad joined in the fun...

IMG_2730.JPG.58dd47e86736f97dc9be8e24f0a1f2d3.JPG

This is about all I saw other than water on Day 2

^ Totally! I love Mr Hertz!!

 

Anyways.. on to day four stuff, a stop in Costa Maya with nothing much to do followed by day five - Thanksgiving in Cozumel with the ATV tour!

IMG_2945.JPG.819ca2c105a87344b27e2d218dd96126.JPG

Good night Costa Maya, I'll probably be back some day...

IMG_2882.JPG.3ae23b0b4969c27cb163a6f454c0118f.JPG

originally I took this photo because it ripped off Jimmy Buffet but it kinda ended up being true...

IMG_2932.JPG.e4c055a08999a2f1422cc952670decc5.JPG

ok so we decided to get back to the boat before it left us!

IMG_2928.JPG.e39dd7936dd305c54d8a75a0f7cf958a.JPG

This guy reminded me of South of the Border.. not Jewey, the statue dude..

IMG_2927.JPG.4d813eaa6c8cf4f3a56ae0304fdfac35.JPG

Here's my "beer thread" photo..

IMG_2926.JPG.dd5de610749e8674ff949ff41a5e7c35.JPG

so we went back to Mexico and Joey went in search of "tail"..

IMG_2923.JPG.3f66d1d373951be1676512d5fbbb2b86.JPG

I guarantee you he did not make this shot. Not that I did much better...

IMG_2921.JPG.a9ffde29c04736973daaa3f24fa05ce0.JPG

Joey's all "with enough beer, I can ball too!"

IMG_2918.JPG.ddbf13eb0944089cbb45f58841a1d075.JPG

here's a big, dead thing.. wasn't sure if it was a bug or small bird

IMG_2911.JPG.11289e4e29c976697cfc005f6facab56.JPG

since drinking in town wasn't enough, Jew and I drank once we got back on the ship too.... and for some reason, decided to play games

IMG_2897.JPG.4ac3723065cbd3c5223031d6a5c66963.JPG

here we are headed back onto the ship

IMG_2890.JPG.a112ab2ddf80b646f1cfd9e63603e832.JPG

random beach shot, I can see the hammock from here

IMG_2889.JPG.6ac4521d5dee5e38d458ec82d1093a86.JPG

this looked like an ultra twister... so I just had to include it

IMG_2885.JPG.23e2ccbcd6e2cb97896aeb03ba0e33ab.JPG

here I believe I had already began to feel the effects of the margarita.. nope, sorry, that's my "normal" face =)

IMG_2879.JPG.52450e69e2f15087d322e685d8112c61.JPG

wow, it almost looks nice

IMG_2874.JPG.ff19ecd0a03a726f8d43284ebda17145.JPG

mmm... poolside bar

IMG_2871.JPG.a4e868761d428434ad6c0e4ff103f2f0.JPG

random shot of the cruise ships from the tower

IMG_2868.JPG.f0e8c99e76635828e81ee5f3149996d5.JPG

This port literally just popped out of no where

IMG_2867.JPG.1017df42e489e55955562298e786b0c7.JPG

The place actually looked moderately nice, especially considering its in Mexico! Then again its young, I'm sure it will decay like the rest of them!

IMG_2866.JPG.91a1f7669d832554cf9128173c2c669e.JPG

No excursions for us today!

IMG_2864.JPG.9c97cbade98461398b671a6ebb9b8eac.JPG

I don't see why I couldn't have taken a cruise on something like that..

IMG_2862.JPG.2816f726ead7f7d9109bb55804e2fb3e.JPG

I see a little town at the end of the dock!

IMG_2860.JPG.7b2a842498be5749e1aff0887b569ec5.JPG

yeah, apparently it was someone's birthday or something

IMG_3041.JPG.bf31858472849914b1fff75dad55d23b.JPG

how about a sunset photo to end this update?

IMG_3039.JPG.dea936a3b3e9331ebf2c377c002b5cdb.JPG

hopefully next time we get to stop in the "good" part of Cozumel!

IMG_3026.JPG.e2e75163166b32ad284cb51f83ec6462.JPG

no shopping for me

IMG_3025.JPG.d672ffd718c67d4de731378a2774e470.JPG

by that time, we were ready to leave 1/2 Senor Frogs and get back on the Explorer

IMG_3023.JPG.6aa815a093b0063e0f47201b9873352a.JPG

... as did I...

IMG_3019.JPG.e31df090db72a25dbefcf52d3cafdf88.JPG

... but then they danced together so it was all good

IMG_3017.JPG.609dd03ba81e0dc464f8424be6ae96f7.JPG

Joey totally got molested! =)

IMG_3010.JPG.29ad78ade201743ec0ef285770d576be.JPG

we passed on the giant margarita's at 1/2 Senor Frogs though..

IMG_3008.JPG.7b80bb62161d4760334301f37b12c745.JPG

Jewey and I decided to head back to town

IMG_3006.JPG.4df09b9cd0649457eea3b51cd5547daf.JPG

at least the weather got a bit better

IMG_2999.JPG.8fa9c60a692570360189fc12b31dc0f6.JPG

proof that I threw them away

IMG_2998.JPG.dee0fa171425be3fe3a29d7f76d65c6c.JPG

My old running shoes from high school

IMG_2996.JPG.2fe828b172b807e3e7f210d6092b1c30.JPG

I wish we got to dock up near those other ships because the part of Cozumel we were at was kinda weak

IMG_2984.JPG.7f81eeac2a19a16848308e1db3a439b2.JPG

The company even had some nice scenery around the camp

IMG_2978.JPG.66b8cf43da8f4c321643f5a8e8d0d8dc.JPG

The skies look pretty.. the rest of the photo, not so much

IMG_2976.JPG.41c806cf3d7713aa2ebc154409d7bffe.JPG

I was glad we didn't do the sissy thing and walk the trails..

IMG_2970.JPG.977869a3a9dd2db507582f2d112ca2fa.JPG

I wanna go back to the ATVs..

IMG_2968.JPG.47913d6e0bd1a229409c565f87f99892.JPG

The Mayans were short people, I guess that's why they had short temples

IMG_2964.JPG.2179da7d1b8b9ac9f5c8b11c4ef2ce48.JPG

walking off the bus back to the "class" we took

IMG_2963.JPG.ace1a03faea574522b51c4106ce3e6a4.JPG

That's us!

IMG_2961.JPG.c27130f76eefc64e38547791c5c02b93.JPG

note the crappy weather early on, it did get better later..

IMG_2960.JPG.91da91c830450ccb7246f2e3ad2d1aa5.JPG

The dock was in great condition

IMG_2956.JPG.204ce606af632f3e0a492295400c1b80.JPG

We had to wake up pretty early in Cozumel

He CLAIMS...

 

I wasn't even sick, hell, I'm not even sure if it was the liquor or the crappy strawberry slushie sort of thing that made me vomit, and it wasn't bad - hell I didn't even really stop and lean over like most people do, and I didn't get any on me and felt fine that is why I stick to beer...

 

...So why DID he change his shirt then?? Excuses excuses.

I did! And we didn't even pass out like Derek.

LOL

 

I like how in his TR...He has two different shirts on...Maybe because you puked all over your shirt there Jow?

Well this part of the TR covered two days to begin with... but I did change shirts for dinner that night (pic).

 

The only other person to ask is Jewey since Robb and Elissa were being old and were still on the ship sleeping...

I'll vouch for Joe. Joe was pretty much like how Stan was whenever Wendy came up to him in South Park. Just stopped, vomited (all on the ground...none on himself), kept on moving.

 

I've seen way worse alcohol vomiting.

IMG_3067.JPG.d474abc76ba88b4db2609581568e3b0d.JPG

It wouldn't be a TPR trip without a McDonalds stop

IMG_3065.JPG.d836bcddb58fc96e4399c864a3f981ef.JPG

Back in Miami.. sigh

IMG_3064.JPG.d14504ea59ad636582d8bd41d04f8e62.JPG
