Sadly friends, this live blog must come to an end. Not because I want to end it, but because I am being forced to vacate this ship. 
Thanks for reading and following along. I have to admit I really enjoyed this format of live blogging, and I’d love to do it again. It’s certainly a lot simpler approach compared to my other live blogs. 
Thanks again and hope you enjoyed it.  So long, and thanks for all the fish.

Speaking of the pub, here it is. 

All these photos are actually from my iPhone XS

Spoiler alert: cruising is awesome

I can’t say enough good things about being able to enjoy a weekend getaway cruise just to mix things up and be a good buffer between true vacations.  Really helps in the notion of “getting away from it all” for a bit.

Dinner tonight is at Giovanni’s Table. Great choices all around. While I think I prefer Jamie’s Italian, this is a solid menu. 

Garlic and olive starter

Antipasta starter

Buffalo Mozzarella

Eggplant parm

Beef ragu

Tuna crudo appetizer

Pasta of the day in an aioli 

Hola! Today we are in Cozumel, and arrived around 8.  I’m assuming it was 8 because I was sleeping. 

Speaking of @twangster I learned one important photography lesson, which is the best time for photos is the hour or so around dusk. Great contrast in the sky and the ship.
