Saturday was our day in Cozumel. We left boat with all our snorkeling stuff and got a taxi to take us to Chackanaab Park. It was a great place to snorkel. Lots of fish. We had all gotten wet suits , short sleeves and short pants to wear. The water was a little chilly but lots were in water without wet suits but we were glad to have ours on for sun protection, buoyancy and warmth. It got close to 100 degrees they told us and none of us got sunburn except for an occasional spot missed by sunscreen. We did this for a couple of hours then gathered our stuff and took taxi back to cruise ship and dropped off all our gear, changed our clothes had a quick lunch then headed to town to shop. We were docked by the down town shops. We just had a couple of hours for shopping so Craig and Tyler stayed together and Carrie and I headed out. Lots of fun. We had to be back on the boat by 4:30.
Some of the highlights on the boat, Midnight buffet with ice sculptures. Tyler really wanted to see this. He came to our room about 11 pm and told us to come and get him and wake him up. At 11:30 pm we woke ourselves up and went to get He and Carrie and we could not wake him up, he did talk to us and tell us he did not want to go to let him sleep. But early the next morning he wanted to know why we didn't come get him, that we should have walked him down to it. Ha! We walked down the rows of wonderfully prepared food, ice sculptures and carved fruit and such and Craig took pictures. This was only for picture taking and viewing. The eating didn't start until 12:30 am. I went to bed, Craig and Carrie headed back down to have some samples.
Tour of the Galley, amazing how much food is prepared and served in such a professional way each day.
Shows each night were very entertaining.
We played rook , pinoccle, shuffle board and minature golf. We all found time to relax and read our books. We joined in on boat trivia games and such.
The only down side of the trip was getting off the boat, it took about 2 hours. Not too bad since we were not pressed for time. But next time if in a hurry we will get a porter to take our luggage from the line and he will move you up to front of the line.

I loved the part about the desserst and laughed that you were presented a recipe to feed 1,000!! that is hilarious! I am so glad you had a fun time! Too bad Tyler missed the midnight icesculptures! That also was a funny story.
Love you,

Again mom, delete the second comment.
I hope you get that recipe perfected soon! Too bad it didn't turn out as you remembered it. Maybe next time.
