Wow, you guys are brutal.  We’ll be lucky to hear from Sid today. Ignore, ignore, Sid.

Yeah, they kinda took over his review.

Well, what do you know... Wake up, turn on phone, and it actually works without doing anything... Out to hunt for coffee...

[sid_9169]

Gimme the strongest thing you got...

Man, I guess that I really did let that whole switchover situation get the best of me... It's just when things don't work like they're supposed to ) even when you do everything correctly) it just gets under my skin... "Supposedly" there's a set order of things you need to do, and I did all of them correctly, and still nothing... Hopefully, I can make it all happen again when I return from Cozumel. I'm taking my "real" phone on shore to try and use Verizon's travel pass. No idea how much they're system there will allow me to do, so we'll see. My only dread, is having to try and reconnect once back on board... They really do need an instruction sheet for this. An "internet for dummies" if you will... Anyhow, after a good night's rest, hopefully my day in Cozumel makes everything disappear and resets my mind... We'll see...

What came first, the chicken or the egg?... They're both coming at you right now, baby...

There's a lot of people walking around with their back packs like they're ready to roll out... We don't get there for almost three more hours...

[sid_9169]

I've got a lot of time to kill... Maybe hit up the Serenity hot tub...

[sid_9169]

This doesn't look right.

 

 

[sid_9169]

I suppose that it's as clean as it'll ever be at this time of day.

Have a good day, Sid. Enjoy!

Main pool is almost completely vacant.

Must be cyber Monday... That day when you get an email from every single company you've ever done business with... Erase, erase, erase...

It is, but I still get emails and texts from back home...

I figured out a way to get those DARN green door opener thingys to work... I place the side of my pinky finger (between my fist and the first knuckle) flat against the thing, and VIOLA, it works!... At least I figured out how to do that without further frustration...

Hey Sid, enjoy Cozumel today.  Thanks to you and St. Greg I had an amazing time on Cozumel bar hop tour on Thanksgiving Day.  It was the best excursion ever.  Coconuts was a very interesting place.

 

Have fun!

[sid_9169]

I guess that I'll start getting my stuff ready for Cozumel... Still two more hours until we arrive, even though I can see it right up ahead...

On Mardi Gras we never heard a viola playing when those doors opened but we'll listen for it in March.

[sid_9169]

I'll be flexin' a nice huge wad of pesos in Cozumel today... Makes it easier to calculate my bill without having to deal with the often unfair conversion to US dollars... Plus, most of the places I go have menus in pesos only.

My hand drawn map will also help with my "on foot" adventures once my driver drops me off...

 

 

[sid_9169]

Hydrating...

Huh?

Photo please.

Showered off, and ready to conquer the day...

Looks like we're parked next to the Breeze this morning... I can also see Royal Caribbean Adventure of the Seas over at the international terminal...

I'll be bringing my usual Louis Vuitton bag on shore with me... Contents: a little more than four thousand pesos, three hundred American dollars, my hat (so my head doesn't get sunburn), handi wipes, my hand drawn map, rebound patches and a handful of Flyby and DHM pills, a pen, and an assortment of masks, which I don't know if I'll need...
