Carnival Mardi Gras Day 3 Cozumel October 2022

I started off with some time on the treadmill with the great view. Then breakfast at Emeril’s, coffee, beignets and croissant sandwich with sweet potato fries.

We always go to Mr. Sanchos when we are in Cozumel. We get the romance package, which is the all inclusive, with the day bed and a 30 minute massage for each of us. The swim up bar is one of my favorites as well. One of the things I like about Mr. Sanchos is you order food off the menu instead of a buffet. The coconut shrimp is something we always get.

Back on the ship it was time for afternoon coffee, then drinks at Alchemy then we had dinner at the steakhouse and ended the night at the Havana music area.

Carnival Magic Day 1 Embarkation

After my work out and coffee from the hotel cafe, it was time for breakfast and more coffee. I drove to Port Canaveral and parked at the port. I was on the ship in no time, having my first drink of the day, a funship special doing the e-muster, the next drink at Red Frog Pub, exploring the ship and a Guys burger for lunch and the famous celebration cheesecake.

After 1:30, I was able to go see my room, a spa balcony and it was my birthday so I had a birthday cake. After unpacking and getting the room set up, it was time for the sail away party.

I spent some time at Alchemy before my reservation for dinner at the steakhouse.

Then to the piano bar for shenanigans, late night room service and then a slice of birthday cake.

September 2019 Alaska Cruise Day 1 Crown Grill

My husband is a smoker and I am not. Smoking venues are limited on most ships. I am a gambler but he is not. Our meet up spot is the casino. We usually meet there and have a pre-dinner drink.

The Crown Grill had an insert on their menu for Alaska and seafood specials.

I had Clams casino and French onion soup and my husband had the shrimp. Also I had another 24K Margarita.

I had surf and turf, my husband had chops and we had baked potatoes and spinach.

Finally I had chocolate peanut butter dessert and baileys and coffee.

As the reservation was kind of late and it had been a long day, we called it a day and went to our room.

End of Day 1.
