As cruise enjoyers, my fiancé and I have been looking forward to the daily vids after work each day! Glad you guys are having a blast

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank 😊 you

[@bethbupp5021]

Looks like a great trip thanks for sharing with us.

[@laurafoote214]

The Mayan tour was really cool, your tour guide was very informative and interesting, and those flamingo's wow!

[@truth4004]

You should buy real vanilla beans instead of the extract. Then you can stick the beans in a jar of sugar and have vanilla sugar.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you for sharing 😊

100 pesos is $5.64 US

Another fun filled adventure.

[@michellelyon3149]

We LOVE Costa Maya, the water color is unbelievable :) The cruising gods have truly blessed you with smooth waters and great weather!

[@helgabullabong]

Wow, wonderful video. So many amazing sights. Cheers

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank 😊 you

I got vanilla in Haiti many years ago. Best vanilla i ever used.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Sounds good 👍

[@dhigdon0629]

So Amazing!! To think about all the work it took for those people to build all that in that heat and humidity is mind blowing. So Beautiful!!

[@Lora2274]

We so enjoy watching all your and Dawn’s adventures. I’m so glad you did one on the cruise. I’ve never been on one and it really gave me a lot of insight and information and makes me wanna go on one now. Thanks guys!!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank 😊 you

[@familyarthurs5922]

Thanks for another great entertaining and informative video! I loved visiting Mayan ruins, that was my favorite experience ever. Yeah, super hot, but worth it. Before booking another cruise (I've cruised a lot), check into all inclusive resorts. All the inclusiveness of a cruise but on dry land. There are still excursions, nightly entertainment, beaches, pools, activities. And I found the dining to be better, and a very diverse collection of restaurants included. I recommend Finest Playa Mujeres, and any of the Moon Palace resorts. If you are Costco members they offer great prices and extra Costco perks that includes the flights.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank 😊 you

[@lindagaskins9181]

I cannot tell you how much I've enjoyed your cruise photos and blog it was wonderful

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you so much Linda

[@patriciadowd2948]

Another great cruise video. One thing my husband and I noticed is the amount of walking. Someone would have to be in good health to be able to take all these tours. It is so wonderful you are able to do these kinds of things. Keep doing and don't quit that is when you have trouble. My husband and I are guilty of that. I loved the top or dress that was Blue floral Dawn had on at dinner. She looks so good in that color. She is brave to put her feet in the fish tank. I just love Dawn because she is so much fun and is up for anything. You go girl. LOL Can't wait for the next video.

I like the headphone dance club. You can still have fun and listen to the music as loud as you want instead of having blasting music.

[@donnadesanctis]

This was great the pyramids are amazing !! 🥰

[@jenaevans1509]

Thank you for sharing your adventures. I think you two are adorable! Keep letting your light shine! Blessings to both of you.

So glad y’all are having a good time. Love the videos. We’re going on a cruise this summer. Thanks for sharing your cruise with us. I’m learning a lot for our trip. Safe travels

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank 😊 you

[@patriciac4858]

This was so relaxing for me to watch you both have such a nice time, I’m very happy for you! I love cruising 😃

[@dawnbenchley7237]

The Mayans were awesome people.

[@Rhondagail]

Thanks for the history

[@Rhondagail]

👍😊

[@rebecca1995]

The Mayans and Aztecs were the first to exploit the positive properties of gum; they used chicle, a natural tree gum, as a base for making a gum-like substance and to stick objects together in everyday use. Forms of chewing gum were also chewed in Ancient Greece.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you for sharing

[@kimberlystatzer4767]

Thanks for sharing ❤

[@bubbascruise]

The silent discos are a odd yet kind of cool feeling, how it works is you have a few different song selections to pick from. The big thing to do in Costa Maya was a water park pretty close to the pier. For whatever its not opened back up after the shutdown.

[@Mosesthecat]

Mexican vanilla ice cream is off the hook good

[@julsjewels3185]

This was great! I hope the cool souvenirs are hopefully made in Mexico..

[@judyrobertson9479]

that was so nice, just drive by and see what the town really looked like. enjoyed that video

[@koalabear6722]

Another interesting adventure! That heat must have been miserable, but how interesting to see those ruins and hear about the Mayans!. Happy cruising! 🥰🤗

Thank you again for such a wonderful video. We learned so much today while enjoying the tours and gift shop window shopping

[@mariascudder3277]

One of my favorite birds are Flamingos ..

[@Thecorgially]

Enjoyed the ruins.

[@wildflower008]

Really enjoying this series. We’ve never been on a cruise but finding it so interesting. For future reference, pure vanilla is dark, imitation vanilla is clear.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank 😊 you

Great video will and dawn 😊 I really enjoyed 😉 the video. Keep up the great work 👍

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank 😊 you

[@charlenee1776]

That looked amazing. The ruins were cool to see. As you were driving to get there though, it seemed very run down. Looks like you guys had a good time. I would have been exhausted with all the heat and humidity. Hope you got a good night's rest. Can't wait for the snorkeling.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank 😊 you

I think you n dawn should go on the world cruise you can chill more and really take it easy and get of at certain ports. Trust me you will love it.

[@nataliedarby702]

Great video. I know you were hot at the ruins. I went to Chichen itza and it was literally steaming in the air so hot and humid. Glad your enjoying the ship.

How fun I loved Mexico and we went on a cruise once to Belize & Roatan the snorkeling there so cool but wear sun screen & sun shirts cause it was so bad getting burned

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Do you love to explore all those islands thanks

[@laurenbyers6505]

Great video guys

[@rosalita1962]

Did you ever try the main dining room for breakfast? It’s a very nice way to start the day when you are not in a hurry. I like starting my morning with a served breakfast! Same goes for lunch on a sea day and on embarkation day. Thanks for sharing your adventures.

[@lindablair919]

Agree about eating in the main dining room.

[@dianapearson1771]

I was wondering if that cruise just didn't offer nice dining service. That would be what I would expect on a cruise!! But then, I have never been on a cruise.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

The main dining room is only open for dinner

[@ashleys_sadness]

Love the video!

[@keithsanders2792]

Beautiful, interesting and fun. It's a privilege to be included in your cruise adventure. Really enjoying it. Thanks Will & Dawn!

What a great video! Dawn, you were really brave to put your legs in the water with the fish - no way could I have done that! Why couldn’t people put their hands in? Thank you for this great series of videos!

Something to do the oils on your hands ✋️. They wash your legs first

Great video! I’ve got a Royal Caribbean cruise coming to Mexico coming up in a few months. Trying to figure out if I should go on this tour or the Chacchoben ruin tour. Would you recommend the tour you went on.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

In the jungle it does get hot. I think 🤔 either or you would still enjoy both of them.

[@Rhondagail]

Very pretty bird's

[@carolm8003]

It’s a joy to watch you explore firsts. Saw those fish spa treatments at the airport once, sounds horrible but fun to watch Dawn. Thx for sharing.
