Our first port of the cruise and things got off to a rocky start. Thankfully, Todd is so easy-going that nothing really gets to him unless its REALLY bad so it was more of an adventure, really, though it was a confusing one. We finally realized that on the BACK of the map he'd shown us the 'one road' on, there was a map of Downtown and it actually had some street names on it. Granted, that didn't solve every issue since the 'one road' we needed to take was actually a pedestrian-only zone at the prime intersection, we did make it to San Gervasio, eventually, and spent an hour or more touring the ruins there at our own pace. Then made it back to the rental place with time to spare (which meant shopping happened--after I went back to the ship for my credit card, of course: I actually managed to leave the ship with on a few twenties and my ID... I told you, rocky start).
