Good morning from Freeport. Slept in a tad. And I’m feeling better gonna shoot up to the Lido for breakfast and then head to a beach.

Thank you. I am. I definitely need more water. Key West was hot, and I just needed hydration and sleep.

Bacon is back.

Is the Maitre'd's name Larisa?  That sure looks like her.  She was on 2 of my previous cruises.

They should have trick or treating for the adults, with a free drink at every bar!  

 

When our father's would take us trick or treating in our neighborhood, they would each bring a shot glass for a different shot at each house. When our mothers did, they brought their wine glasses.

 

Gotta love the 70s!

Looks like Larissa to me, she was on a B2B we did on the Freedom this Spring, delightful.

All this Captain Ricky butt stuff reminds me of an Eddie Murphy bit from the mid 80’s. 
It was all about his butt, this whole show. LOL 😆

Yes it is. 

[MeganGC1983]

Great beach day. I’ll catch you up but first Stewart’s work, priority tenders and our cabin view. 

[MeganGC1983]

Legit question: how do taller women shave their legs on a cruise? I’m 5’3 and that is hard enough. Wow. 

[MeganGC1983]

So we walked off the ship and through the port shopping area. Lots of shops and merchants set up. But we were headed to get a taxi. 

[MeganGC1983]

We continued to walk past the Mango singer and past Senor Frog’s to the taxi tent. After about 5 minutes a van pulled up and the lead guy tells “beach” and we all jumped in for the 20 minute drive. It’s $7 per person each way to Tiano Beach and they drop you off at Pirate Cove. 

[MeganGC1983]

Pirate Cove beach club costs $12 to get it. They say they have free wifi, but it was basically only by the office. For the $12 you get in, and 15 minutes on a kayak. We didn’t do that lol chairs were $16 each. 

[MeganGC1983]

We bought a chair and everyone headed out to the water. It wasn’t the cleanest beach, but it worked. The kids played and everyone swam and there was lists of people there. 

[MeganGC1983]

I walked around and checked out the shops and massage options and the food. 

[lennythenose]

I just realized I was on the Dream for this exact same cruise one year ago exactly. We lived HMC. Hope y’all do also. 

[MeganGC1983]

I came back to the chair and noticed a lot of people were looking for something. A lady had lost her driver’s license and sail n sign card in the ocean. She had a lanyard and the came out of the plastic holder thing. DH ended up finding both separately. They had all been looking along time. They sent us beach beers as a thank you. 
By that time, the kids had “inherited” a float. That provided another hour of entertainment. 

[MeganGC1983]

We were all starting to get hungry, so we packed up and decided to head back to the ship. None of the food there appealed to us and tomorrow is a beach day too. So a few hours was enough. Pirates Cove was ok. Not my favorite but it’s not the free beach at Progreso. 
We all showered and now I’m eating a Steak and Cheese from the deli. It’s really good. Everyone else is having a Guy’s burger. 

[MeganGC1983]

They are working on things.
