July 14 thru 21'07
wife and I had a great time at Fishermen's. We flew into Coz and caught a taxi outside the airport to the ferry for 5$, ferry ride for 20$ to PDC, and made the mistake of trying to save money and dragged our 3 suit cases to Fishermens. Won't try that again. At Fishermens they treated us real well upon signing into the room. We were offered to go on another 1 1/2 hour tour update to the new Tres Rios and other upgrades for several door prizes. We took the tour on Sunday morning, and it wasn't too bad! After realizing I could stay at Fishermens and do a day trip into Tres Rios, I decided there was no need to upgrade! Total tour time including breakfast was 3 hours with a pretty sales lady. So I got a free 55 min. massage and two tickets to the Andalusion horse show/dinner theater. It was great. My wifey had the massage while I went scuba diving the tortuga reef and the barracuda reef. The water was about 50' vis. on the reefs. For diving, go to Cozumel, it is soooo much better. The water wasn't good for snorkling for about 100' or so from shore at Fishermens, and any further out than that was too dangerous because of all the wave runners coming too close to the roped off swimming area. The food was good for an AI, and the waitstaff was excellent! And you could get doubles on your acohol in the drinks. I will definetly go again. Next time we will go to Wallymart on Saturday night and load up on foods and beverages instead of doing the meal plan. We did only 3 days of meal plan as it was, and decided we could have done better $ wise. And the downtown merchants have gotten real used to the ships coming in faithfully enough to raise their prices up. Some would deal 5 to 10% down, but not many!
