serene56 Posted May 20, 2011 #107 Share Posted May 20, 2011 [quote name='mprince4']- what service! We got a quick ride back to the port and I gave that driver $20 because I didn't have any small bills and I appreciated his speed in picking us up and getting us back to the port. I was smiling the whole way back to the ship because it was such a great day! Bu.[/quote] 20.00 on top of the taxi fee???? I remember our cruise to Aruba-- and no sun screen for us-- thinking we are in shade how bad could it get.

Honeyroastedmelnut Posted May 20, 2011 #111 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Wow, after reading your review I'm glad I booked the Altun Ha ruins. I chickened out about 3/4 of the way up that main ruin and it doesn't sound nearly as step as the ones you visited. I didn't know I had that bad of an issue with heights until then either.

We went in February and nary a bug was to be seen. Was there rain before you got there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mprince4 Posted May 22, 2011 Author #125 Share Posted May 22, 2011 J passed out (please ignore the nerd book in the foreground) - this kind of shows you how close we were to the covered area where the bar and lunch area is - and how beautiful it was! Another pic of the pool That's about it, I didn't take all that many pics at Nachi - I was too busy drinking and sitting on the bar stool in the pool, you know :p Next up - Roatan!!
