Limes are Back!

[Panda3]

Just got off the Oasis yesterday.

 

On day 1 and 2 no limes. On day 3, after St. Thomas, Limes suddenly appeared for the rest of the cruise. According to a bartender they found a supplier in Mexico.

 

Just wanted to share everyone.

 

Oh..and mint is back too for your mojitos. Some folks were saying mint was in shortage.

Glad to hear they had limes. It is interesting that you got them in St Thomas. I would never guessed that it would be easier to get them there than on the mainland.

I have a lot of limes on my little tree. I bet they grow on St. Thomas and places other than Mexico. :)

The CD even joked during the Quest (when asking for fruit) how it was good to see limes for the first time in a month.

You gotta bring mint. Too hot to grow down here.

I'd be willing to guess that the Limes in Florida were probably too expensive.

I'm bringing limes with me just in case.

Years ago when DW and I were dating, we would go to Mexico on vacation and buy champagne in duty free on the way down. We would sell it to the local restaurants and make enough for our spending money for the whole trip. Times have changed but we are bringing limes just in case. Should we bring a few cans of escargot??? :eek:

How did they make Mojitos without mint?

Last week on the Grandeur we had plenty of mint but no limes all week. :(

Darn, to cold here to grow mint. Guess it won't work. :)

OK. So bring some rum and I'll get some peppermint slice candy at CVS.

On Majesty last week and had no limes....disappointing for sure - mostly every drink I order comes with a lime :(

Slice up a few small unripe oranges or green lemons and most people wouldn't notice by their third drink.
