Will There BE A Cinco de Mayo Celebration on Explorer?

[sivyaleah]

We sail on 5/5 to Bermuda on the Explorer for 5 nights. I suddenly realized that it's Cinco de Mayo :D

 

Does RC do anything special for holidays like this? I've been sailing on NCL for a long time and I know they would. Last cruise I took on them was during Halloween and they turned that into a lot of fun for the guests. I wondered especially if they might have a special dinner planned in the MDR instead of their usual one.

 

Thanks!

Is Explorer sailing anywhere where cinco de mayo is actually a holiday? Considering it isn't considered a holiday in Mexico, I doubt it is celebrated in Bermuda. Perhaps if you were sailing to Kansas City, Hallmark might be celebrating it.

LOL, I just thought since it was sort of a celebratory thing nearly everywhere these days they might (at least, it sure is around NY/NJ!).

I can tell you that last year I was in Cozumel, on Oasis, on Cinco De Mayo and there were no special celebrations.

I suppose if you went inland to Puebla, there might be a celebration. As far as I know, that's the only place in Mexico that recognizes the 5th of May as anything other than the day between the 4th and the 6th.

 

Cinco de mayo was invented in southern California (go figure);)

Since Richard Spacey is now CD on the Explorer I would assume he would throw a Cinco de Mayo party.. Ritchie is never one to miss an opportunity throw a party. :D

I think they are selling cervezas, buy the bucket you get one free:D. They also also celebrate little less known holidays like Monday or Tuesday on a cruise ship;)
