Salsa & Salsa in Costa Maya | Travel Diary
Our second port of call on our Royal Caribbean Cruise was Costa Maya, Mexico! Our excursion of choice was a "Salsa & Salsa" {Learning to how to make various salsas & salsa dance!}
Exploring The Port
When we got off of the ship, we had a little time before our group would be leaving so we explored the shopping area in the port. While walking around we saw some men winding themselves around a pole, preparing for their stunt show.
Once all of their rope was secured, they jumped down & spun around to unwind the rope going round & round until they reached the ground.
We also had a mini photoshoot of my outfit, as per usual.
Everything is from Forever 21, sadly this dress is two years old & no longer available but they do have quite a few "lace up" items online!
Coin pendant necklaces have been very hot this summer. They accent low necklines beautifully.
Retro shades are popping up every summer! I love how these cat eye sunglasses are unique with their boxy/geometric shape.
By the time we had walked around & shot some photos, it was time to hop on the bus to head to our excursion!
Salsa & Salsa
Right away we were given blue margaritas {even amounts of tequila, blue curacao, lime juice & simple syrup} & WOW so good, but they are very strong so keep that in mind if you make a batch!
Of course the boys went with the beer of choice in Costa Maya.
Now onto making the salsa! They gave each pair of people an even amount of ingredients, bowls & utensils to use to make the salsa & guacamole. We ended up purchasing the bowls to make these salsas authentically at home!
As they instructed us, we would cut up our ingredients & mix them. We created two salsas & guacamole! All of it paired very well with our margaritas!
Jacob ended up doing most of the work because I couldn't stop eating! Sorry babe!
If anyone is interested I have the recipes here!
After enjoying our chips & salsa, they then taught us how to Salsa step by step! We weren't the best, but it was a lot of fun!
As a surprise to us, that wasn't the end of the excursion for us! They surprised us with a tequila tasting!
After the delicious tasting of some specialty tequilas, we walked around & took some pictures until it was time to leave!
We hopped back on the bus & was brought back to the shopping area by the ship where we took more pictures & I was clearly still feeling the tequila!
That concludes this travel blog! I hope you enjoyed seeing what we did in Costa Maya!
Lots of Love,
