The Ides of January, the
first month of 2016 is half over. We
docked at Cozumel at about 5:30. I knew
that because the side thrusters woke me up.
I went back to sleep, we had no tours planned for today. We had our coffee and breakfast in the cabin. Gerri got ready and went to the pool
area. I had checked the GPS and decided
to walk outside and see if any of the caches were close enough to try for. From the end of the dock the nearest cache
that I hadn’t found was 6 tenths of a mile away. Further than I wanted to walk in the heat and
humidity. I debated taking one of the
many Pedicabs that were plying the docks, but decided against it.
I went back on board and
spent some time in the library. The Carnival
Magic was docked across from us. I believe
from Facebook that our friend Maryetta Bowman is on that ship. What a coincidence if I had seen her on the
dock, but I didn’t. That ship is at least
as large as ours, with as many passengers;
I met Gerri back at the
cabin. We rested for a while before dressing
for the Captain’s Circle Party. We did
watch a beautiful sunset and moon rise from our balcony before going to the
party. We sat with a couple from South
Carolina, They also had ties to the Houston
area. The top two most traveled
passengers we introduced. They were the
same people as last week, now with even more days at sea.
We went to our regular dining
table and time. We dined alone
again. Tonight was Lobster and
prawns. We both had Escargot and then
the Lobster. I also ordered the Beef Wellington
to make my meal Surf and Turf.
After dinner we stopped by
the Crooner’s Lounge. We heard one and a
half songs and the piano player went on break.
We had seen the performance in the Princess Theater twice before so we
decided to return to the cabin. We read
and tried to solve Sudoku puzzles before going to sleep. I think I am getting better at them. I still fail many of the more difficult puzzles
and am much slower than Gerri with the ones I do solve.
