Fantastic walking tour Pablo Garcia was an amazing guide, so much knowledge on the history and culture. Loved all the local food and beverages along the way. So glad we did this.

The walking tour started at this totem pole

 

 

 

 

First stop was here for coffee and sandwich, they were fantastic

 

 

 

 

 

 

[loupana]

Next stop was here for a Cream Cheese pastry, delicious

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our next stop was here for some Mofongo with Cream Chicken, excellent wish it was bigger…

 

 

 

 

[loupana]

Next we had some Pork, Rice and Beans with a couple of rum drinks. Another tasty stop

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Guava Juice and Rum, mmm…

 

 

 

 

Our last stop was for a frozen treat

Our guide Pablo Garcia then walked us back to the port, can’t say enough good things about Pablo and this tour…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just as we were about to leave the port Celebrity Equinox was just pulling in, this is the ship that started it all. We took a Mediterranean cruise on Celebrity Equinox in May 2012 and obviously we were hooked. We just took our 13th cruise since then.

Post dinner standby line for North Star, nice view of the ship pool lights at night, seas were calm so not a bumpy ride.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Went to Tony Tillman show in the Royal Theatre

 

 

 

 

[loupana]

Went to Music Hall for Rock-A-Rokie, Karaoke with the House Band “Rock the Boat”, oh boy, lots of brave people having fun.

 

Sat in Schooner bar and listened to Acoustic Guitar Music from Joyce, the Lead Guitarist in We Will Rock You.

 

Headed to Two70 for Dancing with the Strips, left early, it was full house couldn't get a good seat.

 

 

 

 

Late night snacks from Cafe Promenade, again very good sandwiches.

Very nice review. Can't wait for my Bermuda cruise on Anthem in Sept.

This review is amazing! You're pictures alone are perfect. RCCL should hire you for their brochures. The Anthem looks so modern and clean.

May I ask what camera you have, if it hasn't already been asked and I missed it.

We are booked on the Anthem for March with a stop in St. Maarten . I showed my husband those trikes and his eyes lit up... I'll have to book that for sure.

I use my Google Pixel cell phone and my Sony A6000 mirrorless camera.

Day 7 Labadee (Wednesday June 14, 2017)

Then some relaxing on the beach and small lunch we shared

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[loupana]

Then we did the dragon’s Tail Coaster

Note, there are lockers around the beach. For a cost of $8 it allows you to use any on them

 

 

You get a wrist band that has a chip in it that operates the locking mechanism on the locker.

 

So you can use the ones at the zip line, then use the ones by the coaster, then move your stuff to a location closer to where you are hanging out on the beach.
