Our two part excursion turned into a three part excursion. The ride back should have just been a nice ride with amazing views. It turned into an amusement park ride with the boat going through very choppy waters. I got seriously soaked on the ride, as wet as I did snorkeling. Truth be told it was fun, it was a little scary, but also fun. The two teenagers in our group had a blast. The adults, not so much.

Today we made port in Amber Cove, Dominican Republic. We had another two part excursion today, shallow water snorkeling off a sand bar and then lunch at Fricolandia. The snorkeling was fun, but even the shallow water was pretty rough. The views under the crystal clear water were amazing. So many beautiful fish and a beautiful coral reef. Snorkeling was one of the primary reasons for going on the cruise, and while it was a very long trip to get there; I definitely had fun. I got some pretty cool under water video as well.

Today was our first excursion. We were in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The excursion was visiting two historic forts founded by the Spanish. The first fort was Castillo San Cristóbal. It’s actually in the heart of San Juan. I could see the fort easily from the top deck of the Mardis Gras.
