Rare TxTeach79 Posted March 17, 2023 Author #1184 Share Posted March 17, 2023 ‘Twas time to head on back. A few beers, walking around the port area, popping in some stores, and I’m good. I used to come here for days at a time on summer vacations with my family as a kid in the 80’s, and been coming on cruises ever since (it’s barely recognizable). We stay at Sol Caribe which I think is Park Royal now, and before that my folks would stay at El Presidente (which I think is still there and is very fancy now). My dad loves to tell the story of waking up one morning, walking to his window, and being absolutely wide eyed and astonished to the point of incomprehension by the size of what he saw…. The ms Holiday, all 47k tons of her. She was docked alongside Chandris (X) Britanis, and it was the most staggering thing ever. How did that beast float?!? Our first cruise would be two years later on her sister, Celebration, in ‘88. that’s a very long winded way of saying that being solo and having a ton of trips lined up in the future I didn’t feel like I needed to do or spend big this trip, so I kept it as simple as it gets. The next one will be the polar opposite. back down ship tunnel! 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I remember that one! But maybe this one wasn’t quite as fine as you thought it was at the time. If it still isn’t quite the same since the MG, it might bruise/swell more easily than in the past. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was fine for the most part this whole week, and just yesterday started hurting when I go down stairs. Go figure. Once I kick CHEERS into gear shortly I expect pain to quickly diminish 5 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Teach, can you usually do that? Like, can I just roll up into the steakhouse or other spot that has a bar but you normally have to have a reservation and tell them I am just here for a few drinks? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure they are happy to take your money at most all of the bars you can get to. 🙂 On our last MG cruise there were some people at the steakhouse bar that were drinking and I never saw come in while we ate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You definitely can and usually the Steakhouse has some of the more "top end" drink selections on the entire ship....it's the only place on the ship that has the champagne I like, and I often will go there just for a drink. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried this one because I had that later ressie, and turns out you definitely can and it’s a very chill, higher end experience 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
