Host Faith Posted October 30, 2012 Author #526 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I have my own brand of water, lol. Lunch was great. Two things I think are the most popular (and best) on the menu are the coconut shrimp and the Caribbean fries. Everyone was ordering these two items. Delicious.

Host Faith Posted October 30, 2012 Author #527 Share Posted October 30, 2012 You can get kayaks (included) and snorkel gear from this hut on the beach. Rae and I used a kayak when we sailed the Liberty in March. Couldn't this time, but if you have a few minutes (and why wouldn't you- you're on vacation!:D), give it a try. It's a lot of fun.

Host Faith Posted October 30, 2012 Author #528 Share Posted October 30, 2012 We tipped Eduardo and left Mr. Sancho's around 3 PM. There were taxi drivers waiting for us as we reached the entrance to the property. Our driver was kind, he took the scenic route so I could take pictures along the way back. He even stopped once (his suggestion) so we could take a photo with the Allure in the distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Faith Posted October 30, 2012 Author #529 Share Posted October 30, 2012 When we got back to the pier area, we went to Los Cinco Soles to find some pure vanilla. It's right behind Senor Frog's. If you love to cook or bake, this vanilla is a must-have. Cozumel is famous for its pure vanilla. I like the Los Cinco Soles brand because it's also organic. The 125 ml size cost $4.

Host Faith Posted October 30, 2012 Author #533 Share Posted October 30, 2012 When we got back to the ship, we just relaxed in the room for a while and enjoyed our view. I just love the shade of blue of the water in Cozumel. It's gorgeous, and I could stare at it for hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Host Faith Posted October 30, 2012 Author #535 Share Posted October 30, 2012 So tonight, we decided to go to the early seating of the comedy show. I think we just walked into that one since it appeared to be booked solid that night. We went a few minutes before showtime and were able to walk right in. I think most people were going to the late night shows, even though they were the same. Combine that with the fact that sailaway was close to the show time, and I could see why it was so easy to get in that night. I wore a long black dress. Very comfortable. Don't mind the building behind me- looks like I'm wearing a hat! :o Didn't really notice until we got home! The comedy show was hilarious! The material is definitely NOT for kids. You must go see it.

QTMichele Posted October 31, 2012 #537 Share Posted October 31, 2012 OMG, we loved the comedy show! BTW, I didn't notice when I was onboard, but, from your picture, they spelled "you're" wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxermom73 Posted October 31, 2012 #538 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Glad you and family are safe! I was so glad you took pic's of the AI side because it has convinced me to go that route I like the fact that everything is paid for and easy to try different things! Would you suggest buying before hand or after we get there? Thanks for all your hard work! Take care of you and lil bit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks boxermom :) I would book it in advance if you book through Cozumel watersports dot com, it's $45 pp instead of $50. You only have to put down a $5 deposit pp and pay the balance when you arrive. Edited October 31, 2012 by Host Faith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BillOh Posted October 31, 2012 #542 Share Posted October 31, 2012 (edited) Krystal, I know your not quite finished, but I'll add in to the many thank you messages you are getting and will get. While I know you get some pleasure out of writing them, it is a lot of work. I've often said I can get something out of every review, and for this one I think I'm paying attention to those great photos at Mr Sancho's. After two cruise on Allure's eastern itinerary, I am looking at possibly Freedom on the west and I need to find something different for our 4th trip to Cozumel and this looks like a real possibility. Up next: Nothing . Most likely sailing from NJ in 2014 Inaugural voyage on the Sunshine class perhaps? Edited October 31, 2012 by BillOh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Faith Posted October 31, 2012 Author #543 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Dinner on this night was just "okay." If you want to visit a specialty restaurant one night, the night in Cozumel would be a good choice. I had the Caesar salad and the Chicken Cordon Bleu. The salad was fine, but the chicken was pretty bland. I was expecting nice salty ham and melted cheese to ooze out of the chicken once I cut it, but it was solid and tasteless. So disappointing. None of the desserts looked appetizing to me, so we both got a scoop of Wes' vanilla ice cream :rolleyes::). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QTMichele Posted November 1, 2012 #548 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Hi Michele! How's the weather in your neck of the woods? I hope all is well. I didn't even notice the typo until you mentioned it. Whoops! COLD! Above freezing, but we received 8 inches of snow on Monday night/Tuesday. We had fun though - made 2 huge snowmen and a snowdog (courtesy of my middle child). :) It's all melted now, and I'm ready for spring. LOL Thankfully, our cruise is in just under 2 weeks! Great pictures and review... I don't want it to end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feealicious Posted November 1, 2012 #549 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Faith loved this thread. Cannot wait to do a photo review my self next year. I'm going on the Allure in May with my best friend, our first one. I do professional photography so it makes it that much more exciting. Thanks for sharing!
