Costa Maya: A colorful port
Earlier in the day, however, as the ship was docking, these shots were taken from the deck. It was a beautiful clear day with blue skies and wispy clouds.

ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous looking place and terrific, dramatic skies!! What fun, beautiful captures for the day!! Thanks for sharing the fun and the beauty! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteNice shots from Costa Maya! I have some of the same photos when our ship was docking. The water is so pretty. Great photos, happy skywatching!
ReplyDeleteA great series, nice skies, beautiful beach and tequila tasting! SOunds like a great time!
ReplyDeleteLove the bridge and the clear water!
ReplyDeleteI love Mexico, and your photos make me homesick for the vibrant colors and the wonderful people.
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling of not thinking of food, however, because cruise ship passengers never go ashore hungry!
Thanks for the tour of Costa Maya. Quintana Roo is one of my favorite parts of Mexico.

Nice post! Want to visit CM some day!
ReplyDeleteReally nice post of a great location! I've sample wines, and sampled beers, but never tequila. Not sure how long I would last!
ReplyDeleteWow!Breathtaking shot from the deck.
ReplyDeleteLove all the colours!
ReplyDeleteOh so beautiful!!! I hope you've had a wonderful time!
ReplyDeleteYour beautiful shots remind me of how colorful Mexico is! I love love love the vibrant orange wall shot!
ReplyDeleteFine arrival shots. I was surprised how far the boat is from shore. Very good tour of the things of interest to tourists.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed these shots very much. Looks like a great spot to visit.
ReplyDeleteInitially, I thought that you must have captured your first few image from a plane. And I was thinking, you are very lucky that the pilot flew at the height. Reading further revealed that you were on a cruise. Some very beautiful images.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend.

ReplyDeleteGreat shots ... and amazing colors!
ReplyDeleteLove your pics! The ocean is so blue, and a nice contrast to the vibrant colors of the buildings in town.
ReplyDeleteTaking that first glimpse of each port of call was one of the reasons I wanted to stay in a balcony room during my first cruise earlier this year.
