Cozumel is a blast!
I had never been to Cozumel and had always wanted to visit this little island in Mexico, east of Cancun and the Riviera Maya coastline. So, one day we journeyed over the sea on the ferry boat to the island of Cozumel. It’s really easy to make this trip from Playa del Carmen. It is especially easy when our resort (Playacar Palace) is right next to the pier where the ferry boats dock. The ferry boats run every hour back and forth from Cozumel, except at night, so check the ferry schedules closely.

Although I’d been to the UK many times, it was like seeing it for the first time when I took my 9-year-old grandson on his initial visit. We were based in Oxford for a special Harry Potter program but had plenty of time for side trips.
For two weeks it was punting on the Isis, riding a steam train, banqueting in a college dining hall, and roaming the countryside. In London, he was thrilled with the top of a double-decker bus and cruising down the Thames to the Tower. There he loved the cannons, the Royal Jewels, and the ravens, but refused to have his picture taken with the Beefeaters. That was too tourist-like.
It was Winter break of my first year in college. As my friends all went home to their families, Heather & I had a better idea for vacation. We were off on a plane to Germany to visit Heather’s sister, Dana, who was studying in Germany for the academic year and had a surprise waiting for us on the other side of the world.
