Review summary

Though there was unrest in one of our original ports of call, a fantastic time. They rerouted us to La Paz and we had a great time, though our guide came right out and told us they didn't really like US American's but loved our money. We had an interesting time in Puerto Vallarta and a Tequila tasting. The couple that went with us, he and I got a little tipsy from the tasting.

Manzanillo, Mexico Did not visit port

Rerouted to La Paz. The cruise line felt it wasn't safe to go to the original scheduled port. Had a fantastic time in La Paz, though the guide said they really didn't like US American's, but loved their money.

Took an excursion to a private estate. It was beautiful and they were planning a wedding for a family member. Saw they had a very nice bull ring and we had to explore.

If you notice I just joined this app.. I have all my notes and pictures, so thought I'ld give my reviews. lol I would have posted more pictures and reviews about a couple of other cruises we took, but the ships are now out of commission or changed names.
