    favorite excursion in Cozumel?

    in Cozumel

    Posted

    Hello all!

    Been to Cozumel a lot and have enjoyed Paradise Beach, Playa Mia Beach Break, Fury Catamaran and Mr. Sancho's.  Going back in November and am doing the Cozumel Bar Hop for the first time! I was at Sancho's last month and it was packed! service was off but food was still delish!

    Carnival Fascination Passenger Jumps Overboard Intentionally

    He is very lucky to have survived.  The amount of arrogance in some folks that they willingly choose to act stupid and not think about how they are endangering others just boggles my mind!  I realize that we have all been 19, but seriously?  I would like to think he would be banned for life from cruising Carnival.  I feel badly for his parents, that they have to deal with the fall-out from this for possible future vacations and just in general worrying about what other bad decisions their son will make.  SMDH

    Booked Our First Interior - Any Hints - Tips - Tricks?

    I didn't read this entire post so I apologize if this was already mentioned.  Set an alarm.  I never do this on vacation, but in the interior cabins it is dark as a cave!  You will wake up and still think it's the middle of the night and it is noon lol  this actually happened to friends on a cruise we took a while back.  They missed their day in Cozumel!  Have a great trip!

    What is your favorite cruise "hack"?

    After almost 20 cruises I am amazed at all these fantastic ideas!  My contribution to this discussion is a small one.  Several years ago, I cruised with my sister, and two daughters.  Four women and one bathroom makes things interesting lol Anyway, I bought us each a small plastic basket from the dollar store for our shampoo, conditioner etc...everyone had their own baskets and we lined them up again the wall in the shower.  It worked really well and when cruise was over, we simply threw the baskets away.

    Low Carb Dieting

    in Lose Before You Cruise

    Posted

    Hello everyone!

    I started low to no carb eating 6 weeks ago today.  so far, I have lost 8.3 pounds and a LOT of inches.  The first week was rough as I found myself craving all the carbs, sugar etc...but once I got over that hump, I really haven't had any issues.  I allow Sunday to be my cheat day.  I do not go crazy, but I do allow myself things I don't ever have during the week.  I am 54 and have noticed it takes a bit longer for the weight to come off.  I am walking at least 4 evenings a week ranging from 2-3 miles.  I have more energy and am sleeping much better and amazed at just generally how much better I feel.  I like to think I made a decision to make a lifestyle change and not a diet.  I cruise in 36 days and am not going to deprive myself of the foods I love.  I will however, eat them in moderation lol 

    Wishing everyone on this thread major success in their journey!

     

    Happy Cruising everyone!

    This is why I love cruising!  Everyone can do exactly what they want.  You have limitless activities on the ship that you can or cannot participate in, food galore and gorgeous cabins to pick from.  My husband and I cruise with couple friends and it's nice to say if we don't see you around the ship, we will see you at dinner!  Some of our friends love relaxing and reading in the peace and quiet of their cabin, and some of us,like myself love being about the ship, watching and participating in some of the activities and my favorite thing?  People watching from my lovely chair in the sun with a Miami Vice in my hand!

    Happy Cruising everyone!
