Where to Next


I realized that we haven't been all that specific about our plans. Where are we headed next? What intrigue and insights await us? What new animals will there be to stalk? Photographically speaking, of course. More iguanas? Some chickens, perhaps? It's all an unknown out there, and that's what makes it exciting.

Tomorrow, we will be raising the anchor and moving on from Isla Mujeres, heading to the little fishing town of Puerto Morelos, then to Cozumel for some snorkeling and finally to check out the Mayan ruins in Tulum. From there, we haven't decided if we want to head straight to Panama or if we would rather go to the Bay Islands off of Honduras for a week before heading down. Right now, we're thinking Bay Islands, but that could change.

That's part of the fun of cruising, at least for us. Maybe other people are more OCD, but our plans are very fluid. They just kind of dissolve or come together depending on what suits us and our circumstances in the moment. It's not a bad way to travel, and if it wasn't for the dadgum hurricane season we'd be doing a lot more of it!

  2. If you make it down to Roatan (and I recommend it!), stop by and see our friends at Mango Creek Lodge on the east end. They're in a great location, excellent snorkeling and even better dinner.

    1. Thanks, Megan! I'm pretty sure we are going to Roatan, and we will check them out when we get there.

  3. I love that you and Vlad plan like we do. Our plan is to get out of Galveston Bay then see how it goes. If you can get on a bus to Chichen Itza it is well worth it. Yes, you need to go by bus with a whole passle of touristas but it is worth is. Tulum is lovely but Chichen Itza is mind blowing- even with all the touristy crap vendors everywhere.

    1. I hadn't thought about that, and Chichen Itza sounds amazing. Man, I really wish we had more time what with the 'cane season and all, but maybe we can still swing it. Hope you guys are doing well!
