Today's port is Cozumel, which is Mexico’s largest island.

We have an excursion planned labeled Secret River and Playa del Carmen.

Today's Port in Costa Maya, located 100 miles south of Playa del Carmen was cancelled due to high seas and incredible winds.

Our Excursion to Chacchoben, a Mayan ruin that dates back to 350 AD, didn't happen, but we had a wonderful time aboard the ship anyhow.

Port in Belize City, Belize.

Excursion to Xunantunich.

This is a large expanse of Mayan ruins where we experienced temples, palaces and six plazas.

Xunantunich is an Ancient Maya archaeological site in western Belize, about 70 miles west of Belize City, in the Cayo District. Xunantunich is located atop a ridge above the Mopan River, well within sight of the Guatemala border – which is 0.6 miles to the west. It served as a Maya civic ceremonial centre to the Belize Valley region in the Late and Terminal Classic periods. At that time, when the region was at its peak, nearly 200,000 people lived in the Belize Valley.

Xunantunich's name means "Maiden of the Rock" in the Maya languages Mopan and Yucatec, combining "Xunaan" (noble lady) and "Tuunich" (stone for sculpture). The "Stone Woman" refers to the ghost of a woman claimed by several people to inhabit the site, beginning in 1892. She is said to be dressed completely in white with fire-red glowing eyes. She generally appears in front of "El Castillo", ascends the stone stairs, and disappears into a stone wall. Like many names given to Maya archaeological sites, "Xunantunich" is a modern name; the ancient name is unknown.
