Leaving Coco Cay soon and unfortunately it wasn’t a perfect day. I was super excited so got to Chill Island early, plopped my stuff down and walked around exploring. I planned on spending some time chilling by the pool but it was…. chilly. I was able to get the chicken sandwich and mozzarella sticks, thanks for the suggestion of stuffing the sandwich with the mozzarella, gooey goodness! I also got my first ever dessert of the week, the funnel cake. It was crunchy and greasy and fabulous, took me back to my teenage years going to Cedar Point. The skies were looking ominous, soon we heard thunder and lifeguards were directing people out of the water. We headed back to the ship and it rained for couple hours 😤☔️. Sat in Solarium for awhile then headed back to room. Of course now it’s nice and ☀️☀️.

Yep, I’ve only seen him twice

I stayed at Embassy last Saturday before my cruise, tried getting early check in online but was “denied”. Got to hotel at 10:30 and figured I’d sweetly ask the very nice woman, she not only got a room for me right away, but gave me 6 (😃) drink vouchers and I didn’t get charged extra for early check in.

I grabbed a gladiator of wine and sat on balcony, it was a beautiful evening and pictures cannot capture the colors. Oh and I slept for two nights with this light on before I found the tiny switch 🫤

Sabor wasn’t worth the $30 + gratuities but I’m still on vacation. Best part was guacamole and chips. The calamari tasted like thickly fried rubber bands. I got the fish tacos and ended up eating them with my chips instead of the soft flour tortillas. Maybe it was me but for the first time I felt like everyone was staring at me, not because of my stunning beauty but because I was alone. Meh, maybe it was just me missing my other half. I got some of my food in a carryout container but fridge is so tiny that it didn’t fit. That’s ok because I was so stuffed. Early night because I was excited for Cococay.

Wow, it’s almost like you’re being punished for having Covid 😟 by being served nasty food.

I’ll be departing as you are boarding ☹️. I’ve had a great week and hoping the same for you!

Haha 🤣 our husbands must be related

Thanks for the suggestions and menu, can’t wait!

Piece of cake

Made reservations for Sabor since I’m craving guacamole and tacos. For those asking about the avocado margarita, it’s tasty. I was expecting a thicker version kinda like a smoothie but he just puts a tiny piece in, can’t really taste it. I do recommend the jalapeño margarita, it’s really good. Smoking isn’t allowed on balcony, right? I e got some neighbors two doors down who aren’t following the rules and the smoke is drifting my way 😡

Walked around the shops again, Pringles? Because there’s not enough food on board lol @John&LaLasorry, no Chanel other then this clear one, I had my card out ready to buy Lala her bag but tell her she’d be proud of me, I’ve been wearing my Lilly and getting lots of compliments. They are setting up for the Invicta 😬 and sterling silver sale frenzy. I told hubs I’d buy him an Imvicta and his reply was “don’t you dare”, it’s a running joke because he’s not a fan. I love sparkle but wouldn’t be caught wearing that shirt.

Finally made it to Flowrider, if they can do it then maybe I ca….never mind, nope. They were great!

Thanks, always looking for suggestions. Finished Fly Away, second part of Firefly Lane, most of it was so depressing

I will find out for you today!

Water aerobics at pool and in hot tub, it was cute watching 🙂

I’ve been lazy with my review so here’s my day so far. Kind of a chilly, cloudy and extremely windy beginning so I parked my stuff at Solarium and got some breakfast at Solarium cafe. Kept it kind of light since I’m not a huge breakfast eater. Captain announced that tomorrow’s weather for Coco Cay looks good so third times the charm 🫰. Started a new book, Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and met some nice people from Michigan at pool. Lunch was Park Cafe, enjoyed the salad. Heard that capacity for this sailing is 5700 and being a sea day, pool deck was crowded.

I avoided the 70’s party last night

Thank God, just saw my neighbor and he’s ok!

I know, right?

Thanks for the info, keep hearing about this chicken sandwich so gotta try one with another suggestion, mozzarella sticks pressed into sandwich. Will make my way to Breezy Bay for sure, head we are the only ship that day

I haven’t had a funnel cake in at least 20 years, I’ll be trying one. I feel my waistline expanding but what the hell, two more days and then back to grocery shopping and cooking 😛

Dinner tonight was Izumi, I’m getting comfortable eating with me, myself and I and didn’t have any close table mates to chat with since it wasn’t busy. Ordered the shrimp wonton soup (not much flavor) and spicy tuna roll which was delicious. Saw several people come in for carryout, how did I not know this? Great idea if you want to eat on your balcony! After dinner I grabbed a glass of wine and headed to theater for Mama Mia. All I can say is Wow, what a fantastic show and just as good as any I’ve seen on Broadway. Guess this is the last performance for this cast of terrific performers who’ve been on the ship for nine months. After I walked around a bit and back to my room, guess all that fun in the sun wore me out. Tomorrow is a sea day and then last 🥲 day is Coco Cay. Good night 😴

I forgot to grab my phone, did a great snorkeling excursion and really enjoyed it, hot hot day and since I didn’t wear my contacts the fish I saw were fuzzy but pretty. My snorkeling buddy told me I got close to a stingray but with me being blind I didn’t see it which is a good thing because I probably would have started hyperventilating. We were on a catamaran and got a nice tour of Cozumel as well, tour guides were very entertaining. Remember the days of them having a cooler full of margaritas or rum runners and they’d basically dunk your cups in there? No more, thank goodness! We did have bottle water, pop or beer. Got back to ship and took a much needed shower and power nap. My buddy promised to send me some pics so we’ll see.

So far I only met one. I will go tomorrow to MDR for lunch and see her, I know she has family in the US but I’ll ask. I really appreciate you asking ❤️
