Rare Saint Greg Posted March 2, 2019 Author #776 Share Posted March 2, 2019 (edited) I get off the ship and race through puerta maya. The cab stand has a long line. I’m passing them up. Been here a million times now never caught a cab there I walk down to the permex gas station and catch one that just gassed up. If there wasn’t one there I know a bunch of them park on that next street. We’re rolling at 9:50. Andele! andele!

Rare Saint Greg Posted March 2, 2019 Author #779 Share Posted March 2, 2019 We’re on the bus and the guide is talking and she starts talking about people drinking too much and getting sick and she puts this bag on her head...like a plastic bag from Walmart hanging it over her ears. I’m like...”that bag almost looks like it says Greg....no it says 6 reg...then she says “Where is Greg?” I’m thinking maybe there’s another Greg on this bus. When it’s clear she’s looking for me I’m thinking “This is a setup. Posting my excursions ahead of time finally bit me.” I slumped down in my seat so I wouldn’t be detected. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted March 2, 2019 Author #780 Share Posted March 2, 2019 First stop is Punta Morena. They have swing bar seats, a nice beach, and vendors. We get a shot at each stop. The free drink here was called the Mayan sacrifice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted March 2, 2019 Author #781 Share Posted March 2, 2019 (edited) While sitting at the swing bar this lady wouldn’t stop bugging me about a massage. She wanted to give me a free one and all that. I just wanted to get rid of her...so there was this couple from my group. I told her the guy, we’ll call him boats, was looking for a massage. So she goes and messes with boats and leaves me alone. Boats informs her he does not want a massage and it ends..but it’s only the beginning.

Rare Saint Greg Posted March 2, 2019 Author #782 Share Posted March 2, 2019 We get back to the buses and I’m thinking...the bus was bigger when we got off it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted March 2, 2019 Author #784 Share Posted March 2, 2019 The second stop was coconuts. This right next to a hotel that was built in 1970 for a secret meeting between Fidel Castro and the Mexican President. It was abandoned for 30 years and is now the only hotel on the east side. The only people allowed to stay on the east side at night are the people in that hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted March 2, 2019 Author #794 Share Posted March 2, 2019 There was a couple...not in our group that was sitting next to me at the bar. They had a bunch of food and drinks I guess. This guy brings their bill over and says it’s 42. She asked 42 pesos? He says no, 42 dollars and walks away. I hear them talking about how they don’t have 42 dollars and they didn’t realize it was that much money. The husband tells the wife “we’ll just give him 22 dollars. The guy comes back they give him 22. He says it’s 42 and then walks away again. The husband says he wants to get rid of pesos so he has the wife go over and give the guy 700 pesos and they walk out. I think that’s still short. I want to say that’s about $35. After that couple left I slid down and found myself next to boats and wife. Our guide stopped by and gave us a 10 minute warning. I tell boats that’s enough time to get one of the massages by Nacho....up by the bathroom there’s a massage table and sign “massages by nacho” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted March 2, 2019 Author #795 Share Posted March 2, 2019 The guide mentioned the place that used to be the third stop is now closed. So they have a different third stop now. The drink here was called the Blue Lagoon. I had a nice conversation with ohyes and husband from CC at this bar...They are on the Dream this week with their adult children she read my Dream reviews. When I went out to take pictures of the area, boats and his wife had just wrapped up a photo session at the tiki. In passing I pointed out the massage area to boats.

pamici Posted March 2, 2019 #796 Share Posted March 2, 2019 You are an amazing storyteller. 10/10 would pay to read "Saint Greg's Travel Journals" - if you ever consider a side hustle. I have never been interested in the bar hop, but you may have changed my mind! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never been interested in the bar hop, but you may have changed my mind! Cozumel Bar Hop is the best! I even recomend it to the non drinker or someone who doesn’t drink much. It’s an amazing journey. Everytime I cruise to Cozumel I try to do the original Cozumel Bar Hop! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFunInTheSun Posted March 2, 2019 #798 Share Posted March 2, 2019 (edited) Glad to see you had Colleen as you Bar Hop guide. So no massage with a happy ending? 😀😀 Congratulations on now being a FoHo instead of just a Ho on your next visit to Cozumel and going on the Bar Hop again.

Rare MeganGC1983 Posted March 2, 2019 #800 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Just a heads up, Carnival is all ready expecting your sailing to run into some fog. They are expecting delays in your debarkation and the embarkation of the next passengers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
