I can't wait for your review. We are booked for December.

I look forward to your review on the Star, after all these photos and chat it looks like it's time to book a cruise!

When you did the parasailing, how long were you gone from the beach? How did you like it? We are tossing around the idea of trying it, we've never parasailed before. We just booked through Nachi and I asked how much the parasailing was to do a tandem and they quoted me $90 for the 2 of us, when I emailed them back saying I wanted to do it for sure they said, oh we just raised it to $110. I just sent them an another email asking if they would honor the $90 if I printed out my quote from them and take it with me but I haven't heard back from them yet. I wasn't sure how big of a group they take out and how long you're actually gone?

I have been struggling with where to go in Cozumel because we have been to Chankanaab twice now. I just can't imagine any place being nicer and prettier than that place. I just want to pick a place that we won't be disappointed and I know it's going to be hard to live up to Chankanaab.

Will you please fill me in on your day at Chankanaab? We are doing a B2B on the Oasis/Allure going to the Western Caribbean which means we will be in Cozumel twice. We already have Nachi booked for the Allure and are deciding where to go for our Oasis excursion and was considering Chankanaab as one of the possibilities. What did you like most about it and do you have any pictures to share. Thanks!

I do not recall how long we were gone from the beach, there were five of us on the boat and we booked it at Nachi Cocom....maybe there is more room to negotiate when you are there in person? Also from our group three others took advantage of the massage on the beach and I know they paid less than the web site was showing. Good luck with your planning. OH and we LOVED it....

Disregard this, I found all your other reviews, very informative, thank you!

Just received an email from them saying they raised the price because they go through someone else now. I'm not going to prebook, we'll decide when we get there. I'll want to hear from others what they think of the new company they switched over to.

Do you know what they paid for a massage?

Ok, so this may be silly, but - how do I get the pictures to post large in the thread? The option of "attaching" the picture seems like it just gives you a little thumbnail to look at. Anybody? I'm ready to write my review before the electric goes out Have a day off of work while we wait for this hurricane.

You would have to host them on another site...like for instance photobucket or flickr or smugmug. Then take the url from that picture on the site after you've uploaded it and hit the picture button here/above and paste the url in it and it will show up in the post.

Check out this thread. It has lots of ways to post pics and how to do it from Facebook. I do it through FB so I don't have to use any of those other hosting sites

I had done what mitsugirly said previously but it didn't work... I'll do a test one and try again. I posted a picture below, but for me it only shows up as a tiny little box. I wonder if it's something with my mac? Can anyone see the picture?

Yea, that's pretty much the same thing except you are using your facebook to "host" the picture. As long as you have the url, it will post the picture.

True but I put them on Facebook anyone for friends & family to see so its one less place to post them

Mine is coming up as a red X ... I've followed the directions but for some reason it's not posting my pictures. Anyone have any idea?

Are you uploading from your computer? If so that's why; if you're offline then the picture won't show up. Have you tried putting them on a shared site (other than facebook)?

Well this is weird. I don't see any pictures (or any x) on here but I get a notification in my email when someone responds to any subscribed forums I'm on and it showed me the picture you posted. It says it's a slideshow? By Gracie Mac Photography.

[souperjen24]

I've posted photos from my flickr account and my website (Gracie Mac Photography) to see if maybe there was a problem with one site over the other. Oy.

Have you tried Photobucket? i find it to be the easiest. Once you have the pictures uploaded you can put your cursor over a picture and a window will pop up with 4 links. Click on the IMG Code link and it will be copied to your clip board. the you can just paste that link into your post where you want the picture to appear (don't use the insert image button).

We just booked Nachi Cocum on December 5th when we're in Coz off of the Imagination. The web site says that if your ship docks after noon local time that stay open until 7:00pm so we can enjoy the sunset!
