A rabbi, a priest, and a pastor board the Wonder: we're back!

I'm glad you made them for 3; where are we eating? Don't count me out until I'm out. Clearly things change rapidly around here. ​

Same list we'd talked about before, I think I added one ADR only b/c tuesday they start the CC hold so I kind of went, why not. LOL!

right now we are eating at

Breakfasts: CRT, Boma
Lunch: Via Napoli (this was the add)
Dinner: Cali Grill, Olivia's

Figure Beaches and Cream as a maybe and then the new Morocco sit down once it opens. Haven't heard anything about it lately so no clue if it's on time or not. Really out of the above the only thing we truly "needed" ADR's for (this early anyway) I think were CRT and Cali Grill. And given that I spaced on ADR day and was 2 days late, I was happy to get both without an issue (though I wish the Cali one was a little bit later and may keep trying). Pretty sure we could walk in at Olivia's and possibly even Boma. Everything else is loose, figure it out as we go.

You are so amazingly organized. Thank you for making the ADRs and smart to make them before the CC guarantee goes into effect. They all look great. Via will be new for me, I'm excited. I hope I can swing this trip. ​

I think I added 2 instead of subtracting 2. But you're right! Let's dance! I sure hope there's an FE. I keep picking up little trinkets.​

Looky what Michael saw today pulling in to the port of Miami....

Thanks for posting all of this. I liked reading about the Bar Mitzvah and what a special occasion it is. I didn't realize it was so involved. Interesting reading for a fo-Mo, married to a fo-Catholic, who now goes to a middle of the road non-denom church. I wish we had a reason to celebrate like that! Did you post pictures of the cake??

 

[Pinkocto]

That's so exciting!!!

Hi and We're the same religious make-up. My father was Catholic and raised me. Michaels folks converted to LDS when he was a kid. My mother was Jewish. We're all Jews now. I haven't posted photos but need to. We didn't end up with the colossal cake but it was really cute. My bestie's dd made it. It was fantastic. I'll find a pic and post it.​

That's so exciting!!!

I didn't know you'd seen this. I posted it in my DL PTR too. Isn't it gorgeous? I can't wait!​

You're going to be blown away in real life, she's GORGEOUS!!!

I wanted to share that we spent our first night in the house last night.

I'm head over heels already. They're going to have to pry me off that ship. Take Joshua if I end up in the pokey for loitering.​

I am so happy for you! How did you sleep?​

Pam, I just booked Nachi Cocum for our Cozumel day. I read there will be 8 ships in port that day. I've been to Cabo with 2 ships and it was a zoo. They allow only 100 guests per day. I did a search here and the reviews look good.

Here's the port schedule for Cozumel too:


http://ports.cruisett.com/schedule/Mexico/155-Cozumel/April_2014/


If every passenger got off the 8 ships, there would be 23,320 people in port. ​

Never you fear, I'll take care of things if you end up in the pokey




Quite a few people on our thread are going to do Nachi Cocom, it looks nice. I think it is literally next door to where I stayed a couple years ago. That is so many people! how much is it? I can't see from the phone.

Thank you. ​

It's over 23,000 people. It'd be great for a party atmosphere and if this was a me and DH trip or girls', I'd be all over it. With my 12 y/o son? Not so much. I was really thinking about the secret cave excursion along with some excursions but I think Nachi will be nice. I see us pretty busy on the ship and on CC so I think a beach day will be welcomed. Nachi has good reviews, we'll just leave early to insure we make it back. Have you decided what you're gong to do? Part of me want to stay on the ship to be honest but Joshua is dying to say he's been to Mexico. Of course you are welcome to join us, no pressure though. ​

23,000 people!

That's more than some of the cities in the SJ Valley!

How do you find out about this? We are pretty much on the same cruise as you two are on in October!

We went to Nachi for the exact same reason! It was a nice day, very mellow at the beach and pool, we did wave runners too. My boys want to try Mr Sanchos if we ever go again because of the water toys- similar set up to nachi, without the 100 person limit- which I agree is key on a day with 8 ships in port!

Ok I heard you say it - Don't count you out until you're out. So I'm still crossing my fingers for in.

Really looking forwards to a girls trip because they are always so much more laid back than family trips!

I mean it it too. Don't count me out until I'm out. Barely over a week ago we were 99% sure we weren't going to Disneyland this winter, and now its 110% we are going. (I started a ptr if you're interested).

I know I have to figure it out much sooner due to flights and being courteous.

A girls trip sounds amazing especially with you girls! ​

I'm totally on the fence between getting off the ship and going to Chankanaab or just staying on and enjoying. I'll be back to Cozumel in May for the cruise with my mom and will do an excursion with her. But I absolutely love swimming in the ocean so am not sure what to do.
