Lauderdale has little left of its warlike past. Instead the city welcomes visitors with broad beaches and an easy pace of life, plus convenient air and water connections that make the city a perfect place to begin or end a cruise. ### Day 2: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 3: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 4: Cartagena, Colombia **Arrives:** 09:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM She is celebrated as the queen of the Caribbean coast, and given the shimmering lagoons, bays and stunning sea that surround her, it’s easy to see why. Cartagena’s beautifully preserved Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage site, with winding alleys, vibrant displays of architecture and iconic churches. Explore islands offshore, swim in the crystalline waters, and be sure to sample the ### Day 5: Colon, Panama **Arrives:** 10:00 AM · **Departs:** 07:00 PM From the building of the Panama Railroad in 1849, followed by the digging of the Panama Canal in 1881 (completed 1914), the history of Colon is punctuated by years of construction to facilitate travel.

The Zona Libre, or Free Zone, established in 1948, is the second largest free-trade zone in the world. ### Day 6: Puerto Limon, Costa Rica **Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM Puerto Limón, located on the Caribbean side of Costa Rica, boasts a rich combination of sights, sounds and smells.

Photography aside, you can also dive, snorkel and swim with the dolphins. You might opt to explore the reef in a glass-bottom boat, go into town to shop for island crafts, or see the butterfly and floral gardens. ### Day 9: Cozumel, Mexico **Arrives:** 10:00 AM · **Departs:** 07:00 PM Soak up the sun on Mexico’s largest island. Cozumel has pristine palm-lined beaches and plenty of opportunities for you to get lost in Mayan mysteries, explore Caribbean coral formations, or simply relax on a white sand beach. ### Day 10: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 11: Fort Lauderdale **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM Originally a fort built by the U.S. Army in 1838, during the Second Seminole War, Ft.
