&lt;p&gt;I didn&amp;#39;t realize I&amp;#39;d be dealing with a 2 hour time change....but here&amp;#39;s a silly question....does the ship adjust to the time at the port?&amp;nbsp; So, we are scheduled to arrive in Cozumel 10AM and leave 6PM..their time??&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And Belize 8AM&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then Costa Maya 8AM?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then what time are the activities etc on the ship?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Not that I want to be scheduled and pay too much attention to my watch but thought I&amp;#39;d ask!&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
