Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Buccanos https://www.buccanos.com/ There are a few threads about it here. They open at 10 Cozumel time.
  2. Driving conditions down here from Conroe south aren't much different on Sunday than Saturday. I recommend you drive to Conroe and stay the night. Go to Zully's Latin food place in Willis, next to Tractor Supply, for dinner. Easy drive Sunday morning.
  3. Frankly, kids are better than drunks. We just got off a Carnival cruise and OMG the drunks. There was a fight in the piano bar. The PIANO BAR! I'll take some noisy kids any day. Of course, YMMV.
  4. Thanks for this followup review. Just for everyone's information, I messaged the WhatsApp number on their website today at 3:23PM asking about making reservations. Got a response at 3:25 asking how many. I replied immediately, including our first names. Marcus replied at 3:27 that he would make the reservation. At 3:29 I thanked him and told him to let me know if he needed any further information. At 3:31 he replied that the reservations were made, see us then. So in 8 minutes it was done. EIGHT MINUTES! This is for next week so when we get back I'll follow up here with a review. Can't wait.
  5. My wife tells me there is a plan for 4 devices. Can we share two of those with friends who are also on the cruise?
  6. I had to Google it because I don’t drink but here’s what came through: For grocery and convenience stores, Texas's alcohol sales times for wine are the same as beer: Monday through Friday, 7 am to midnight, Saturday, 7 am to 1 am; and Sundays now, from 10 am to midnight. Aside from grocery or convenience stores, package stores sell beer and wine, not liquor.
  7. Yep that's exactly where we went. My wife sat in a lounge chair under the trees while my kids and I went down those stairs. It's a beautiful place to snorkel.
  8. Sounds like Half Moon Bay near West End Village. We did the same thing years ago with a Victor Bodden Driver.
  9. The above advice is solid. I can tell you that we have used Victor on, I think, three occasions with excellent results. But I also respect what Guest 2000 said about preferring a female driver. We did have a female on one of those three occasions so you might be able to specify that when you book if you choose Victor.
  10. I’m curious why you type like that. With a dash between every word.
  11. If you mean between Houston and Galveston, depends on what day of the week, weather, and some other factors. We left the port at 8AM on a Saturday recently and were home on Lake Conroe by 9:45. On the way down there on a Monday morning I went around East Loop 610 to avoid downtown but not to avoid construction, just rush hour traffic. I'm not aware of any construction except between Houston and Galveston and its a crap shoot.
  12. 4 night cruises are historically booze cruises. Norwegian even includes drinks in most of their fares. You think kids are loud? We've been on Liberty probably 7 or 8 times and always loved it. Just never on a 4 nighter.
  13. Turn off the music in every public venue unless it’s a music venue with dancing or a live band. Improve the app where one can make dinner reservations and be notified when their table is ready.
  14. Hello Blue! Yes sir, I love Tortola. Have you been back since Irma? We have not but I hope to soon. Hope you’re living your best life in Mexico these days. I’m 3 or 4 years from retirement and might just join you.
