Mexican Riviera Cruise - Mazatlan

 For our second day in port, we went to a beach resort in Mazatlan. They took us on a bus out to the resort and gave us a short city tour on the way.

We had hoped that being on a resort would eliminate the people selling us stuff on the beach, but it was still a public beach area, so we got approached about 100 times while sitting there. We found a nice spot to sit in the shade while the kids played in the ocean.

They gave us 2 drink tickets each and a ticket to get into the lunch buffet. A lot of us got virgin Pina coladas and strawberry daiquiris.

Lunch was mexican food and it was so good. The view was pretty amazing, too.

Right before lunch, we gave up our spot on the beach with the plan to enjoy the resort pools that afternoon. There were like 6 different pools. The water was pretty cold, but felt nice once we got used to it.

We found this jungle looking walkway that led to some caves and rocks. Deep inside of them, there was a cliff jump that a lot of the kids went off of.

These gigantic iguanas were on the rocks and fences in this area, too.

The warmest pool was this kids pool with racing slides. The slides were bumpy and a bit rough going down, but the kids still had fun.

We ended the day in a volleyball pool. Even the dads got in the water to play.

We had to leave around 2 to head back to the ship. It was a relaxing day and a lot of fun.
