Our first full wday at sea was beautiful, it was very relaxing.
We had our meet and greet with Anna & Elsa, my daughter only went to meet the Princesses and I took photos of her.
My sister and I went to Bingo, didn't win.
First port of call was Cozumel, bugger it was raining.
We didn't get off the ship until around 11 am, as were we only planning on having a walk around the port.
Anyhow, We all got Disney ponchos ( the ones they sell at the parks), handed to us on embarking.
It was only sprinkling, so we walked around having a look in the shops, bought some little souveniers.
We returned to the ship and had lunch, kids decided to stay on board, so my sister and I got off again and wandered a bit further, found a supermarket, where we bought some things, it was massive and sold everything. Very cheap.
By now the rain had stopped and the sun was shining.
Our 2nd port was Cayman Islands, we had to go in a tender for this port, Disney of course is very organised, you go to the Walt Disney theatre , wait there and then they take a whole group at a time .
The weather was hot here, they have minivans and you just pay $20 each for a tour of the island.
We found a driver, asked him were he would take us and got in the van with about 8 other people.
He drove us around the island, pointing out things, we stopped at Hell, the Rum Place and then the Dolphin Swim place, we just went in and had look at the people swimming with dolphins. This was just in a big pool, not the ocean.
The turtle farm was across the road, we didn't go in , because you had to pay extra.
Mind you Hell, is really only a bunch of black rocks, but they have a post office and a couple of little shops where you could buy a t shirt.
The Rum place we got to try rum cake.
Funnily there were chooks, roosters everywhere.
On the way back to the ship, he asked if anyone wanted to go to the beach, so we said yes.
He dropped us off, and said there would be plenty of buses to go back to the ship, just get on one when we were ready, oh and yeh it's $5 per person to get back.
The beach was ok, kids went swimming, we stayed for about 2 hours, it looked like a storm was coming in so we then got a van back to the ship, we had a look around the shops that were at the port.
It was more expensive in the shops than Cozumel.
By the time we got on the tender the rain started, was a rough ride back to the ship lol.
We had a fun day, it is a very beautiful island.
First couple of photos at Cozumel and others Cayman Islands.
Next day is Star Wars Day at sea.
