Had a sleep-in this morning with a 9:00 breakfast as we were not due to reach port until noon. Today's destination was Huatulco (the H is silent) in Mexico. John and I observed our arrival from the bridge viewing room and it's a pleasure to watch Captain Lars swing the ship around and reverse park it like a station wagon. An extra point of interest was provided by the Westerdam (Holland America Line) berthed on the other side of the pier. With two ships in at the same time the locals were having a great time selling jewellery, souvenirs and drinks. With the temperature at 35 C, we headed straight for a shady cantina for drinks. Corona's for John and I, a Pina Colada for Rosa and a Tequila Sunrise for Sandra. Later in the afternoon we watched the Westerdam depart before John and I hit the treadmills for our daily torture sessions. Halfway during our 3 km walk John realised we had actually departed and were headed out of the harbour. We've just returned from the Stardust Theatre where we watched Chip Romero, one of the best magician/comedians I've ever seen. Another great day. Tomorrow we arrive early in Acapulco.
