Prosperity Adventure: Mexico Cruise on the Carnival Splendor

Here’s our group boarding the cruise ship, the Carnival Splendor.

I first cruised to Mexico when I was 15 years old (before I learned Spanish), and was very curious what it would be like to return 20 years later.

It was great!  I really appreciated being away from phones and internet for a week as well as getting to see Mexico again as a seasoned traveler.  My Spanish was a little slow at first but by the last day in Puerto Vallarta, I was chatting up a storm with our taxi driver and it was tough to switch back to English on the ship.

Here are some pictures of the ship:

 Here are some of the highlights from the trip:

 

 

 Each night when we came back from dinner, we had a different towel animal.

 

 

 

 

So what do you think?  Is cruising for you?  Please post a comment and let me know about your cruise experiences or thoughts.  Thanks!
