sredish Posted April 9, 2013 #401 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Chris, You are doing an awesome job as usual. The food presentations and creativity by the Celebrity staff are AMAZING ! I am glad the Celebrity brass noticed what a great ambassador you are and even attracting new cruisers for their line. They should give you some wonderful perks like returning your payment for the internet , offering you return visits to their restaurants and drinks to name a few.Sali I agree! I quickly browsed through their less than 100 posts on CC and I didn't see where they have commented on any other LIVE thread before! A comp of the Internet package...or the next cruise package comp'd...would be a great thank you for that cruise booking they picked up because of you! What a great job you're doing!

BugsyCruiser Posted April 9, 2013 Author #402 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Loving this live report! Thanks so much for taking time to do this so we can all "cruise" with you! If anyone took the beverage package, can you tell me if the coffee includes the lattes, cappuccinos etc? Thank you! It includes all those goodies :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BugsyCruiser Posted April 9, 2013 Author #404 Share Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) The lines are cast... I think we are getting ready to push away and suddenly the gate to the shopping plaza opens, I hear a horn beeping, and... A taxi sped up the pier to let off one last passenger, right at 4 pm Edited April 9, 2013 by Bugsy4271 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sredish Posted April 9, 2013 #408 Share Posted April 9, 2013 The Dash of the Drunks down the dock is just about my favorite part of Cozumel! I've never seen a taxi, though!! Hahahahahaha!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamster Posted April 9, 2013 #409 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Thank you for all the kind words my friends. Some more pictures from my morning exploration: What's the story about this pic?

HS2BS Posted April 9, 2013 #416 Share Posted April 9, 2013 bugsy4271, As Celebrity is sending out emails to not show up to board to early, it looked like you had beaten the crowds. How was embarkation, as we are boarding when you get off for the TA. Hal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cl.klink Posted April 10, 2013 #418 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Enjoying living vicariously through your review. Cheaper than booking a cruise! I'm curious about Cellar Masters. Can you describe it? - Joel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A comp of the Internet package...or the next cruise package comp'd...would be a great thank you for that cruise booking they picked up because of you! What a great job you're doing! Comping a internet package surely would be a great gesture. Between Gambee's review and now Chris's "Live" trip report on the same ship I'm sure lots of people that normally don't sail or have not sailed Celebrity will look to in the future, myself included. I'm booked for cruises for 2013, but surely want to take a Celebrity cruise during 2014 now. I would hope that Celebirty would make a comment on Gambees review too, his deserves a nod from the big dogs too. :) Unless they already did and I missed it. I've done three "Live" trip reports myself and they do take time, but they are fun to do too and I consider them as part of my own personal cruise experience.

afto Posted April 10, 2013 #422 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Loving the review! Thanks for taking the time to do this. I was thinking about Nachi Cocom for our Equinox cruise in December, and now I am sure that we will do this. Great info, great pics. Thanks so much.

I feel a little late..but I just started Gambee's review. Ohmahgah. After just three entries read, I posted that he simply must become my BFF for life and I won't take no for an answer. Between him and Chris, I've found my cruise comrades. Or at least in my head they are! Ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babewho Posted April 10, 2013 #424 Share Posted April 10, 2013 The guacamole is excellent So is the grilled grouper And the grilled shrimp I am totally loving your blow-by-blow live review.
