Cruisin

We had a nice time on the Sapphire Princess.  It is a beautiful ship.  And, probably one of the largest we've been on. 

It was a nice time to head south when it is cold in Utah and warm in Mexico.  Our group was all on deck 10 (the Caribe Deck).  We left Salt Lake on Saturday, January 30th and flew to Los Angeles where we boarded the ship.  It is always an exciting time as the ship sails away!

 

  

We were at sea Sunday and Monday.  The weather was great.  

 

  

We had fun sitting by the pools, reading books, playing games, sipping drinks, and eating.  It seems like we were always eating!                                      

                                              

Puerto Vallarta was our first stop.  It was a beautiful area -- so very green, but it was a rainy day that day. 
Paul and Vernon went on a exciting excursion on zip lines through the jungle canopy.  They had a great time even in the rain.

 

They had to ride mules to get up to the area.

They did several zip lines and several places of rappelling.  It was quite the adventure!

 

  

  

Karen, Doyle, Norma and I took a taxi and went into town and walked around saw the area etc.  I don't have any pictures since I didn't have the camera.  I'm hoping to get some pictures later.  

After Puerto Vallarta, we were off to Mazatlan.  

We took an excursion around the area.  We saw divers, a church, and a program at the Aztec Theater.

                      

 

  

  

 

                                              Looking back at our ship is a pretty site.

 

Our rooms on the ship.  

We'll continue at Cabo San Lucas later.
