Arrived like clockwork at 7.00am, and took the 8.30am tender boat to Acapulco. So here I am in the internet cafe still to see the place, but giving our blog followers time to catch up with last week's photos! Anyway here's a few from this morning already...
Some views from the ship, the QM2 looking back on the tender boat into the sun, and with Alan and Vivienne heading out to look for this internet cafe!
So after a spell in the internet cafe, we wandered along the coast and spent some time on the beach watching the fishermen pulling the fish from their nets. Not much of a sight but the amazing thing was... around 50 huge pelicans wandering around only feet away! Watch out for the picture update when we get to L.A.!
We then wandered around the town, took out some Mexican pesos (20 to the pound), and had a look in the market. We then grabbed a taxi and headed up to the cliff divers, these nutcases who jump 40 metres down a cliff face into the water. An amazing spectacle. Oh, had to have a Corona in a local bar as it was so hot (understandably).
We then headed back to the town, bought some bits and pieces in another market, found our way back to the port and had a couple of Mexican margueritas (as you do). Spent the last pesos on another t-shirt and headed back to the boat (picture below). Nice place Acapulco!
