I started with the crispy eggplant and goat cheese Iain had the crab cake our waiter also brought a Scallop Rockefeller Iain has been drinking a Louis Jadot Steel Chardonnay. One of his favorites - not on menu but covered under premium package. we both ordered one Lobster tail but they delivered 2. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jim_Iain Posted October 18, 2021 Author #658 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Arrived at 8:00 in Ensenada. Tour groups look full and can’t imagine how they could distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erikb923 Posted October 18, 2021 #659 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Scallop looks interesting, great photos, love a dry chardonnay (being an American it took a long time to realize you could get nice dry non-oak chardonnays!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted October 18, 2021 Author #660 Share Posted October 18, 2021 At the port they have a shuttle (non-Celebrity) for 4.00 round trip. We learned it was a waste of money. We took it into town but it was shorter to walk back than go to bus stop. Town is about 4 blocks away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jim_Iain Posted October 18, 2021 Author #662 Share Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) Lots of shops and non-aggressive barkers. The driver said the shops don’t bargain much due to high rent. At street market it is almost mandatory. He said they will drop 30 almost always and you may get them Dow 40-45% he also warned if getting a drink pay immediately as the sometime charge really over the top if you wait until end of drinking.

upwarduk Posted October 18, 2021 #667 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I remember the noise the seals made when we docked in Ensenada on Century. They woke me up and I couldn’t make out what the noise was!😱 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scallops were from MDR. We had not ordered it but I think the wait staff are pushing for high ratings. Our waiter did casually mention it and said he doesn't expect a 10 as no one is perfect but would enjoy a rating of 9. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WineandRoseLady Posted October 18, 2021 #673 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Hi, We're joining you tomorrow! Thank you for the live reports! I see the daily planners you've posted suggest long-sleeved shirts for men for Smart Casual. The Celebrity website defines it as short-sleeved. What are you seeing in the evenings? Thanks!

Benthayer Gonbak Posted October 18, 2021 #674 Share Posted October 18, 2021 That clearing immigrations on deck 11 seems like a real contact tracing nightmare. Since everyone is usually out of their rooms by 8ish, dragging carry on luggage up and elevator and then back down seems to encourage crowded elevators! I’d be interested on your perception as you pass through, fortunately the ship isn’t full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure they’d work there but I can imagine going on a tour and not being around over half the people long enough to warrant being a contact. That way the whole bus load might have a chance of not being considered contact quarantinable! Of course it’s possible that they might not work there either….
