Double Dipping w/a Marine and a Mouse... (Update 9/123 pg25-Flying Home!)

10-1 Wednesday, Cozumel part 4

Warning-Here’s the part that I know most of you have been waiting for… our wild and crazy night in Cozumel. I hope it doesn’t disappoint you… if anything it makes for a great laugh… or it does to us LOL. Beware its a LOT of pics... the only way to retell how a night went in Mexico lol

We hear a knock on the door and its Tonya and Mike all ready to hit the town. WOOHOO Adults night out in Mexico. We all were so excited you would have thought we were on spring break. (Remember were parents we don’t get out that often, let alone together being that we live so far away and haven’t seen each other in MONTHS)

We walk off the ship and along the pier. We have heard from some of our cruise mates that Carlos n Charlie’s is the place to be.. But we head to check out Senor Frogs 1st since C & C’s looks DEAD! We are told for $30 a person we can have all you can drink w/the Frog… hmm tempting but its empty also.

So we decide there is no way in 2hours we can make the best of all you can drink and do any real damage, plus we know we want to go to C & C’s since that’s where the rest of our crew will be. (LITEREALLY LOL) So back down we head and find a table near the dance floor at C & C’s.

After ordering one round of drinks for the 4 of us the fun begins as we got 1/2yard drinks!

Next up, CONGA LINE…. With stops in the restaurant along the way for SHOTS yea free watered down alcohol my fav! LOL.

Drea’s 1st shot of the night

The marine corps brought us together, but our ties will last forever

E tried to get the whistle girl to come and give me a shot but when I laughed and said NOT UH… the joke was on him, wish I would have got video of it, we laughed our “tails” off!

Down the hatch
IMG_1058.jpg


hope this isn’t too racie for the Dis
IMG_1492.jpg


he was a “bad boy”
IMG_1493.jpg


and now he’s feeling the “Magic” lol
IMG_1494.jpg


we loved the ambiance and décor
IMG_1483.jpg


I need this but in reverse
IMG_1495.jpg


Once we are all liquored up we start to shake what our momma’s gave us
IMG_1502.jpg


This is him dancing by himself....


Eventually the place starts to fill up, and we notice hey that gal works in the Kids club.. and that guy and that one and that one… UMM ya we watched these KIDS get wasted you can tell they don’t get many fun stops. The young ones were really drinking it down (they should have gone to the Frogs and got there money’s worth) I can only imagine what the next morning was going to feel like for them with screaming kids and hangover… its not fun! LOL

IMG_1496.jpg


After a while E is really feeling the juice and is getting mad at me for not dancing with him so he storms out.

before we got mad at eachother
IMG_1497.jpg


Mike goes to follow E, then Mike later comes back… and he’s lost E… what do you mean ya lost him. He said they went into the tshirt shop to get a shirt and next thing he knew E was GONE. SO he thought he came back to our table and we weren’t there. We met up with our Dis buddies, Crissi and Denise.
IMG_1503.jpg


So eventually we finish our drinks and head back to the ship. As we have to get the kids out of the clubs by Midnight.

Fun times are always had in another County
IMG_1504.jpg


nite view of the magic from C & C’s
IMG_1506.jpg


Being that E speaks Spanish I didn’t worry about him, so he gets left in Cozumel, its like the MOTHERLAND to him LOL. I figured he was either drinking more somewhere or shopping or had headed back on to the boat. As we get on and they scan our KTTW cards, I ask if E checked in, and they say yes he is. A lil worry goes away from me. I tell T and Mike thanks for the fun see ya later.

I head to our room and I hear this GOD AWFUL sound… what is it you ask? Not that noise I talked about on day one from the stabilizers.. no it was E in the bathroom LOL. I start cracking up; see Mr. Marine forgot he had been in a dry country for 8months and this was his 1st time “living it up”! And boy was he paying for it!

I run (literally) to get the boys. I see P in his club and tell him to check himself out and meet me at J’s club. I run over there to see Mike get Braden and J passed out on a beanbag. Poor kid was tuckered out. I grab him and carry him back to our room. Change him into his jammies, tuck him into bed and P and I go to get some drinks for E and us.

We catch the last bit of the Pirates movie on the aerial screen, which was pretty neat. (they really need to play more movies on there)
IMG_1511.jpg


Then we go back to the room to get some room service. We got our usual, burger, blt and a cookie. Eat in record time and then watch some tv and head to dream land.

So there ya go.. not wild and crazy more like drunk and dumbLOL but we crack up about it still. So I have a sea day where I kicked a trashcan and he has Cozumel where he well you know... :sick: lol

Next Up: SupercalaFRANGIPANI?

:rotfl2: :rotfl2:

I LOVE your PT and TR!!! LOVE IT!!! I am going on the Majic with my BF and her fam on October 17 and am SO EXCITED. your report got me even more excited. I loved your "watered down drinks" and you morning coffees.....

I have a question (maybe dumb) but heregoes. You brought your laptop, which I am sure a lot of people do. You had a wireless connection from your cabin, on deck or whereever? I had read that you have to pay for internet access but have seen people posting their TR live from the ship. How does this work with wireless?

Thanks!!
 
This has been a fun TR to read. It's totally getting me hyped up for our cruise in October!! :cool1:

I didnt get the net package. I just powered up and opened word to make daily notes. (which after a lot of watered down "water" and "coffees" was not an easy task! LOL) If I would have had net I would have been checking facebook myspace and work emails (notice I type it in the priorities I would check them LOL) and would have never got any Rest and relaxation!

This has been a fun TR to read. It's totally getting me hyped up for our cruise in October!! :cool1:
Glad you are enjoying, im envious of your planned cruise!

It would work like at a hotel. You get a signal, and then in order to log on to the Satellite server, you put in your cabin# or your CC information. Then you get a password that expires at the end of your package, or you can just pay by the day.
 
anewmac...I agree with the facebook etc...i want to stay away and really be on vacation.

Did you keep any rough drafts of your TR? I bet they would be funny to read now.....the "OMG i am so drunk" had me LMAO!!!!!! :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl: I cant wait for the rest of your report!!!! :) :banana:

magicfor2: thanks.....:)
 
OMG I'm SO loving your TR. I just found it (by accident) I saw a post of yours somewhere else on the DIS and your name in your sig caught my eye because it's my DD's name too. So being intrigued by the "double dipping" title I clicked your TR link and have enjoyed every minute of it. I was also LOL'ing at your video of E, shhhh, don't tell him. His drunk singing/dancing is something my DH would do, they really do loosen up with a lil drink in em. We have 2 kids also and hardly ever get out....together....alone, so I'm totally with you when you talk about getting a chance to go out and really having fun. My DD is 18 months old and I haven't been "out" out since before I was pregnant with her (gasp). Momma needs a tequila even though I'd probably be on my booty after one since I haven't had a drink in so long.

Anyways just subbing and saying hi!!
 
10-2 Thursday Sea Day

I started the day as always with getting up 1st and going to get a cup of Kalua coffee, and walking around the ship. There was just something so peaceful and relaxing about walking around a nearly empty ship watching the sun rise. Back down to the room I went. I remember wanting to climb back into bed but knew there was tons of stuff I wanted to do around the ship, so I ordered coffee. Within 2mins it was there. Perfect I had another cup while getting everyones outfits set out for the day. Jumped into the shower and got myself ready. P was up by then and watching tv, so I asked him if he wanted to go get some breakfast? YUP but only at Lumiers as he wants the Mrs. Potts special. (the kid STILL talks about that breakfast today!) E by now had made his way back to bed, after spending most of the night praying to the flush o'matic 3000 gods. He and J were still out for the count and there was no waking them. We left them a sticky note on the bathroom mirror and off P and I headed.

At Lumier's we talked mostly about E. P wanted to know what we did on our "date" night. So I let him know his dad cant hang with the big dogs at night, and go running with the wolves the next day LOL. Our food came and we chowed down, I regret not getting a pic of the 2 of us at our special time.

checking out todays activites
IMG_1523.jpg


what was left after he had ate it
IMG_1526.jpg


After breakfast we went back to the room to wake 2 of the dwarfs,
Cranky
IMG_1527.jpg

and Hungover
IMG_1528.jpg


Apparently some kid called J told him he had to get up cuz there was stuff to do. But he hung up on him and went back to bed. I was all confused some kid??? E whispers Mickey OH. So how ya feeling party animal? He said ok but just that he felt like the room was moving.. um well it kind of is since we are on a ship SAILING. lol The 2 of them eventually got up and got ready, and P and I went with them to Topsiders. Im sure I had more coffee (watered down of course LOL) Probably some type of sweets too!

After breakfast I tell the guys we need to hurry as we are taking a Dis photo with our cruise thread. Well with us having to turn the clocks back or was it forward, apparently we forgot or did the opposite, that our time was all OFF. We ended up being there an hour before we needed to be... OPPS.
can we tell whos the non perky bunch
IMG_1530.jpg


and who has had 2 pots of coffee (please dont mind the 2nd and 3rd chins)
IMG_1531.jpg


Oh well it puts us in perfect time to catch the Mickey 200 (potatoe race) in the Promonade lounge.

IMG_1545.jpg


We hear the rules, you design a potatoe or carrot with a knife, and throw on some wheels to get down the race track. Then get as creative as you want with it.

watch out moms got a knife no one get her in a bad mood
IMG_1534.jpg


dad thinks it needs some character and adds some eyes and mouth
IMG_1539.jpg


Heres Mr Potatoe Head
IMG_1540.jpg


We get called for our heat and the boys go up and put our "car" down
IMG_1541.jpg


Video of our Heat


Unfortunatly we were taken out by the middle car

We almost made it
IMG_1544.jpg


because I think they are the cutest lil race designers ever
IMG_1537.jpg


Finally we were on the correct time and it was our Dis photo shoot time.
IMG_1546.jpg


Someone at this time needs a nappy!
IMG_1549.jpg


Trying to get 40+ Dis peeps and kids together
IMG_1551.jpg

IMG_1552.jpg


but in the end we (err the shutters peeps) got a good one
n1196655076_30037655_7085.jpg


After we did a lil catching up with out group we said our good byes as the boys wanted to go swiming. So off we went to the Mickey pool.... the boys got a couple slides in then guess what was spotted just as I find a place to sit and refill my "water" YUP UFO. SERIOUSLY. At this point the boys have gotten used to it and hop out. E goes and gets something to eat from Pinochio's.
IMG_1555.jpg


P & J gets some ice cream with me.
IMG_1554.jpg


All the while cars is now playing while we are at the Goofy pool, NOW this is the life
IMG_1558.jpg


After we finish up with our snacks its time for the boys to head to their clubs. As E and I have a date at the spa. I booked us the frangapani its a scalp and shoulder massage. I believe it was $25 each plus tip, and it is worth EVERY penny, I wish it wasnt in the beauty salon chairs though, being able to relax on a nicer area would be great LOL. But what can you do for $25 right? E was a little hesitent with this at first but got relaxed with the whole situation in a matter of minutes. This was actually a test also since I had a surprize in store for him tmrw. He said he felt so good after.
IMG_1562.jpg


Me in the ladies spa waiting for my person to come get me.
IMG_1561.jpg


The oils they put on your scalp are great especially after all the water and sun exposure. After we walked out of the Spa I felt like the movie What about Mary? As my hair was all oily and would stay how you moved it LOL. We made a mad dash to our cabin so I could clean up. I had to figure out how to do my hair and not look like a greasy mexican (lord knows I dont need to be feeding into the stereo type LOL) Im able to pull it back and look presentable. I also am able to sneak a letter I wrote this am to E like it was dropped into our fish extender. Basically it said thanks for your hard work and everything you do for us bla bla bla.... lol as a special treat you and your wife will be getting a couples massage on Castaway Cay tomorrow. YEAH!

Next Up: Towel Folding, Beer Tasting, & Who let those kids into the bar?
 
Just dropping by to say how much I am enjoying your TR ! Love your writing style and humor ! I enjoyed reading about your early morning time with your son - I have multiple kids on each of my cruises (my son and assorted nieces/nephews), and on each one I have a "morning buddy" and "late-night buddy". That little bit of special time is priceless. . . .
 
OMG How in the world did I miss so many updates? I am really slacking! I hate not getting the email updates, I guess they are never coming back!

LOVE LOVE LOVE the craziness at Carlos N Charlies! It was just as nuts as I'd heard!!! OMG E dancing...that is priceless!

Awesome!!:thumbsup2
 
Loved the latest installment - those hangover photos say it all!

Looks like you had fun at the car racing and the DIS photo - we never made it to ours - can't remember why either!

The massage sounds great!

I am wondering who will finish their trip report first?:rotfl:
