Cruise 17...Independence of The Seas

December 10th, 2018...Western Caribbean

Back on The Pirate's favorite ship!

Ft. Lauderdale, Florida

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

Cozumel, Mexico

For Lady and The Pirate, there are two types of cruises. The first is an adventure cruise where they sail off to some foreign land to explore and learn. The second type of cruise is this one, a cruise to relax and enjoy the ship and sometimes ports of call, especially if they have delicious food and libations.

This was Lady and The Pirate's first visit to Costa Maya and they walked off the ship just to explore. They don't often not plan any excursions, but Lady and The Pirate really wanted this cruise to be laid back and relaxing. They didn't even leave the ship for Cozumel. Steven went along for the cruise but spent most of the trip doing his own thing.

Notes on this cruise:

  1. This cruise was the inspiration for The Pirate's shanty about Coconut Martinis.

  2. The Washy Washy video below was one of The Pirate's more successful videos early on.
