One of my favorite things about cruising is cruising into Cozumel. My heart always jumps for joy when we sail past our favorite hotel, The Melia Golf and Beach Resort! I always take pictures of the hotels on the North end as we make our way to Puerta Maya.
Today, we had another Carnival ship sailing into Cozumel right behind us! Plus, we were also able to get pictures of the pilot boat coming to our ship!!! This is definitely a first for us!!!!
We made our way to the buffet for some pre-breakfast appetizers and found the Lido deck had been invaded by towel animals. They were EVERYWHERE!!! Definitely the new generation of chair hogs!!!!
This really makes the day start off great!!!
Of course, on our way off the ship we had to stop for the KELLY NEEDS A PICTURE FOR THE SCRAPBOOK photo. Jim and Dawson should know this is a requirement of every port we stop at.
Our plan for today is to have breakfast at the museum then walk around the square to do some shopping and make our way to Tony Rome’s Embassy Restaurant to visit with Tony and his family. We made it to the museum in the rain!!! But even with the rain, the view was still fantastic. Jim and I usually enjoy breakfast at the museum but this time was different as Dawson started getting a headache. The food was great, but the rest of our plans had to be put aside so we could go back to the ship.
Once Dawson was appropriately medicated, Jim and I got off the ship and walked around the shops at Puerta Maya. You never know when I will find that one or two things I must have. It is also an opportunity to pick up souvenirs for our family at home.
It is always sad to leave Cozumel. But I know that I will return again. Fernando and his friend Rowdy hit up the their own personal happy hour in the smoking section. They really should sail together again sometime.
Sunsets on a cruise are always fantastic. I can’t get enough of their beauty. And then there is the dinner entertainment that we love. Especially when our waitstaff is spectacular.
And so the evening ends doing the normal walking around on deck and going to the smoking section. We really are very boring people. But at least we are relaxed!!!!
The next installment will be about our last sea day.
