7:30 a.m. the neighbor’s loudspeakers turn on with very loud reggae music, disturbance of the peace probably doesn’t exist in Jamaica.
Today we finally want to have a normal beach day.

At 10 o’clock breakfast is served, today we decide for omelet. We stay first at the pool so that I can still write my reports, I have quite a backlog. Until 15 o’clock we lie in the sun, today it is a bit cloudy, nevertheless, we jump into the water from time to time. In the room I pack some things together.

15 days ago Harry and I started in the evening in Mobay the cruise through the Caribbean on the AIDA, today we leave it again after many interesting undertakings and cities. We now spend only 2.5 days in Mobay and then get on the plane.

At 7:15 we get up and go for breakfast. Since we have to get off the ship early tomorrow I start packing, 9:15 we meet up with the group. The island of Grand Cayman is extremely flat unlike the other islands, it should be a more relaxed bike ride than the last. In addition, the island is very small, it is considered the Switzerland of the Caribbean since no taxes have to be paid, every large company has at least one branch office or “mailbox” here. It is not possible to go directly to the island with a cruise ship, we have to drop anchor and tender again 300 meters before. The main attractions for tourists are stingrays that swim in the shallow water and can be stroked, water sports and beach and a turtle farm.

Today is the last sea day, so rest day of our trip. We sleep long and have breakfast at 10 o’clock, then stroll through the stores on the ship, but find nothing.

Today the AIDA reaches the state of Belize, and there the city of Belize City. Culturally, the mainland has a lot to offer and that is why we have booked our longest excursion with 8.5 hours to the Mayan site “Altun Ha” with subsequent boat trip with the possibility to see dolphins, manatees and crocodiles.

Actually, we had booked a few months ago for today a bike tour with snorkeling, this was unfortunately canceled by AIDA. Therefore, we booked instead of the bike the ATV tour (quad), I’ve never driven, but that’s certainly fun.

The new year is already here again and I have not done any sports for weeks. Therefore, I get up today at 6 o’clock, put on my previously unused jogging clothes, take two towels with me to occupy loungers (otherwise there is no chance after 10 o’clock on a sea day to still get hold of which) and run for an hour on the upper deck. I am not alone, a handful of people run with me on the jogging parkour, it is already 27 degrees and we look at the sunrise while running.
