  1. Looks like you had a great time overnighting in port!
  2. I did overnight in Cozumel back in February. If you get a chance Cozumel Coffee Roasters down town makes s great breakfast and has fantastic coffee!
  3. required visit to beaver town on the way home !
  4. morning breakfast and off the ship! it's 50 degrees here in Galveston. the sea settled down about 3am so pulling in to the shipping chanel was nice and smooth. Now the 5.5 hour drive home.
  5. we are in 9 to 10 foot seas with a strong cross wind this evening. Not the worst we have experienced but quite enough to mess with a tummy. the burgers and shakes for lunch was great before the swell really set in. The Boy and I had pizza for supper and the DW stayed upstairs and packed while trying not to stand to much.
  6. well we crossed the Frontal boundary about 11 AM. time to switch from shorts to jeans and take some bonine! on the other hand it is now easy to get a deck chair!
  7. Last day at sea. sitting around in the suite lounge relaxing. the sea is very calm this morning but we are sailing towards a cold front and expect the swell to increase. Hitting Johnny Rockets for lunch. never been before on any of our previous cruises. Just a beautiful lazy day at sea.
  8. Thanksgiving eating street tacos with trash pandas was spectacular. the waves in the Cozumel straight stayed small and our twister ride was nothing but fun. Then back to the ship for turkey and beef wellington for supper. We even managed to dress up for the evening and catch the vantrilloqest show. Boy is heading for the hush party in the teen club. and we are winding down.
  9. Not yet but we will see what the morning brings!
  10. A quick update from yesterday. we can a great time at Chachoben. got back on the ship just in time for supper and latter a little elevator music!
  11. Caribbean sunrise is always beautiful. I guess tomorrow I'll have to work harder if I want to see it since the ship will be heading north and we are on the port side. Breakfast at Chops again and getting ready to see Mayan ruins. The sea is calm so docking should be good.
  12. capped off the evening with dinner and a show. We had been thinking sushi but the Izumi here on Mariner is really geared towards the hibachi. we ended up in the MDR and our wait staff was great. Then to the production show. "Gallery of Dreams" even the Boy enjoyed it. Now just sipping my coffee on the balcony and watching the stars.
  13. Into a day of nothing much planned. we slept in (for us) and had breakfast at Chops. it was nice to just relax and skip the buffet lines. Sunrise was spectacular. the sea is calm with breezes ruffling the surface of the little bit of swell we have. I have already been watching the flying fish from our balcony. the sea if calm enough I can sea the schools beneath the water as well as the ones skipping across the surface. our attendant is awesome and towel animals are invading
  14. checked in, on board, and unpacked! had a great plate of curry beef over rice at the windjammer for lunch and explored thr suite lounge. I think if I loose track of the DW I will likely find her there reading. We were actually the very first pasengers anoard this trip. Kinda great, trivial but fun. The room is super cool and we spent lots of time just exploring it. As suites go it is in fact pretty sweet.
  15. OK so we did Moody Gardens while the Boy worked on his merit badge. it is awesome as advertised. we spent the entire afternoon going from aquarium to rainforest to Christmas lights and carved ice. So the extra day before boarding has definitely been part of our adventure
