Description

At Costa Maya, Mexico.

My wife and I, plus my parents and sister, just got back from a 7-day western Caribbean cruise. Was a very fun and relaxing time. We visited Roatan, Belize, Costa Maya, and Cozumel. And when I got back to Omaha Sunday night, I had to snow-blow six inches of snow. Back to reality, for sure!
