I'm back. I got scared I didn't see us on the first page and thought we got shut down
.
Wow, there's a lot for me to catch up on, thank goodness I am off one more day. I am loading my pictures now and will give you some type of trip report.
We had a good time but I wasn't really that crazy with the ports. Mexico is just not as nice as the Caribbean. Cabo was the nicest and the only place I would ever consider going back to.
The weather was crazy. First day at sea was nice but a little cool, Cabo was perfect, Mazatlan and PV was very hot and humid and the adult pool was 86 degree so you could even cool off, second day at sea was freezing and windy so we really couldn't lay out by the pool and our last day at sea was nice but overcast and then very foggy. The seas were very calm. The highest waves were 4 feet but most of the time we had .5 wavelets.
Cruise staff was great as usual, Brent was our Cruise Director (I've decided I want him to be my alarm clock in the morning).
Food was a little better than in November, wasn't that crazy with the new menus, but I'm a picky eater so that doesn't say much. I pretty much had some type of beef every night.
Kathy the lounge act was the same as the one in Nov. They weren't very good. However Soul Drive was the act in Rockin Bar D and they were very good. Trent wasn't there. David was the Head of the Cruise Staff and he was great. We did participate in my favorite thing to do on the ship (Magic Quest) and yes I am the one who took off my Bra and yes Joey is the one who wore it (yes I do have pictures
)
Cabo we just went to the ME Cabo Hotel which was amazing. We took a cab there and just walked in and got a bed on the beach. They didn't charge us anything (we even asked) they just suggested we buy something from their bar. I got two Chi Chi's which were amazing, Joey got a steak sandwich. The total price including a cab back was $60, Disney was charging $85 a person for the same place (Nikki Beach). We didn't go in the water because it was freezing.
Mazatlan was gross and dirty we took a cab to Senor Frog (which was closed at the time). The driver told us he would drop us off in the Golden Zone and we could just walk back when it opened...no way. It was too far of a walk and I didn't feel safe at all. We just asked him to take us back to the ship. Sorry Woo no shirts
PV we did the zip line which was really cool but a lot of work. It was an hour drive in an open air vehicle (which was scarier than the zip line). When you Zip Line you have to keep one hand on the line to slow yourself down, yeah the first two didn't really work so good for me I felt like my arm was going to be ripped off so I came in full speed and got yelled at
I paid so much attention to making sure I did it right I wasn't scared at all. The last line is straight down off the platform that was pretty scary and we didn't think we could do it but we did and then the walk back. Yeah, they didn't tell you you have to walk almost a mile back up hill with 20 lbs of equipment on
. I truly thought I was going to die. I'm glad I did it but will never do it again.
Only two negatives
1. They really weren't watching the adult areas so there was a lot of kids running around and in the Cove Cafe. We did say something but nothing was done.
2. Well Joey got Bells Palsy on the last day
He had been complaining of a headache since the second day but I thought it was just from the wind but yesterday his the left side of his face didn't move at breakfast yesterday. At least it's not as bad as the last time but I still feel so bad (I've had it twice too so I know how he feels).
Ok I think that pretty much sums it up. If you have anymore questions, just ask.
