  • This is the cruise where I learned to stick with the crowd in Mexico, and not go exploring on my own.

Cruise 061204

August 20, 2002 (date estimated)

Carnival Cruise out of New Orleans - Our First Cruise - For Brenda's 40th birthday, she didn't want to be in the continental US, so a cruise to Mexico fit the bill.

  • Started with 3 days in New Orleans, and had a great time there.  Brenda: "How nice it is that we're going to end our wonderful vacation with a cruise."

  • We were at the ports of Playa del Carmen and Cozumel.

  • I think we did an excursion, but I'm not sure.
