Allure of the Seas Video Review

     I spent hours creating a fantastic iMovie with video and photo footage of the cruise.  I included some Christmas songs from the band Reliant K, Margaritaville (for the photos of us there), Good Feeling by Flo Rider during our X Rails excursion, and Michael Franti's Say Hey (I Love You) for Labadee and Jamaica video & photos.
     It took nearly 2 hours to upload on to YouTube.  I was so excited to debut this video....  YouTube axed it for copyright reasons.  However they wouldn't tell me which songs were on the "no-no" list.  So I basically resorted to just the Reliant K songs because YouTube allows them.    So for your viewing pleasure, here is the "not as great as the original" video review!

Allure- Cozumel, Mexico

Cozumel has a variety of great excursions.  I’d say this port has so many things that you could go there a couple hundred times and find something new.  I’ve gone zip-lining, Segway Riding, Margarita & Salsa Dancing/Making, but this trip takes the cake.  We booked the X Rails Off Roading & Jade Caverns excursion.  I’m really proud of my mom for putting up with my choices.  In the end she thanked me because she had a blast but would have never chosen, on her own, any of the things we did.  We drove the X Rails out to Jade Caverns for about 45 minutes.  We got muddy, bumped around, etc.  Lots of fun!  At the cavern (cenote actually) we swam in the water, then the guide took us through a small passageway that led to a bat cave.  It was pitch black and everyone was yelling.  Pretty scary.  My husband swore something swam against his leg while we were in there and it wasn’t a person.  Right before we got back in the X Rails one of the guides took a few people to the top of the cave to jump in to the water.  Matt jumped, not me!

Because we booked with an outside vendor our excursion included a free drink at Margaritaville.  So they dropped us off there after the excursion.    I loved it.  It looks like nothing from the outside, but they have a great deck out back and a swimming area with inflatable toys that you can use as long as you are purchasing food or drinks.  The nachos and quesadillas were excellent!  The free margarita was BEAUTIFUL!  Next time I visit Cozumel I will definitely make an effort to come back here.
