We traveled with an LDS group and our leader was great with scriptures and archeology. We enjoyed his lectures and discussions. At Cozemal we rode a ferry to the mainland and then we boarded a very nice tour bus to see the ruins of Tulum. Our tour guide's name was Heleman. Yes he is LDS. Of course we enjoyed the good food on the ship and walking on the beach. The weather was not the best so it made for some rough water. This put a crimp in some activities, such as snorkling. But we were amongst some fine people and relaxed. At Roatan, near Hondorus, we visited a school where we gave out some school supplies and suckers that we had brought
On Oct. 11, Mark and I, along with Jan and Gary flew to Tampa, Florida. On the 12th boarded Carnival's Legend, a ship built in 2004. It was beautiful. Our first excursion was to Sting Ray City at Grand Cayman. Here you see Mark holding a sting ray.
