Day Three

We arrive in Cozumel, Mexico. After a hearty breakfast, we go ashore and experience Mexico, which consists of souvenir stores and restaurants where everybody speaks English and accepts dollars. Travel is a good way to learn about other cultures.

That night, back on the ship, we go to a piano bar, where the piano player gets everybody in a festive mood by playing—I am not making this up—“The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald,” a song about a ship that sank, killing all aboard. Party time!
