Cozumel, Mexico

Day 5: We stopped in Cozumel, Mexico! This made Eric very happy being back in Mexico (even though it wasn't quite Mexico City).

We purposely didn't plan any excursions in Mexico because we wanted to take in the culture. We were going to go see some ruins, but the good ones were too far away. We'll see them next time we're in Mexico. And at the rate we're going, that should be in 2 years.

I love these human statues. They are crazy still! We gave him some money so we could see him move. I just kept waiting and waiting and then finally he did something (Maybe he waved. I can't remember).

Eric's highlight of the ENTIRE cruise can be summed up by this picture: tacos al pastor. You can't find these tacos very much in the US, so this was one thing Eric was sure to hit up. We found these tacos by asking the taxi driver where to go. It turns out this was pretty much the only place that offered tacos al pastor at that time in the day. And yes, the building is shared with a clothes store! That just makes the tacos THAT much more legit.

One thing I learned thanks to Cozumel: I would be a very ugly Mexican woman.

Eric would be okay as a Mexican. I think I should get him this outfit for church. What do you think?

We had a small photo session in the middle of the shops. I LOVE the background. This is exactly what it's like in Mexico (from what I've seen).

After we were all tired and hot, we went back to the ship, got cleaned up, and ate some dinner.

Then we went to a comedy show and saw Anthony Griffith (not to be confused with Andy Griffith). This guy was pretty funny. It was his audition to be a regular on the cruise line. I think he passed! We even talked to him for a bit in the airport because he was on our flight home.

It was a good day in Mexico. And who knows, maybe we'll end up living there one day. Mission President?
