Pause... home from the cruise for a few days and down with an ugly flu bug.... but I can  "think"
about food now....3 weeks later....

A major part of a cruise is..

Food !

And what food starts the day?

That's the one.   And right to our door and out to our balcony... That's the way to start the morning, and your Bible on your lap.

We did a little pre ordering at home, not knowing the whole menu, and on day three this is what came...

Now we know there is always bacon at the cafe upstairs and it opens early.   We usually found a window seat and enjoyed several choices from a very diverse display 

Egg dishes, made to order..

The  lunch was also available in the cafe

               Dinner...

In no particular order....

This is the table we were assigned to.. at the 8:15 dinner hour.   Most evenings we were alone or with one, maybe two other couples.   Tonight, white night, it is Teresa and Brian.  

Another meal highlight....

Crab cakes

 

Theme for tonight....Italian 

French Onion soup 

Darrell's choice... ↑

Mine,   Clam linguine ...very good 

Desserts....

Picnic on Ocean Cay 

After dinner that night, our final night, couples gathered on the highest level of the ship  to sign marriage renewals... A lady from  the Guinness book of world records was there.. and the record was broken

Ports of Call

 

And What you were waiting for

First stop.

Our ship, first port.... Roatan, Honduras 

They can play  and they can sing and they can dance 

And they have coffee... and that was their draw for free WI-FI         Very good java  

But, Darrell wanted to see the children and was ready with US dollars... so we walked outside the "tourist" area...

Chickens, but no children... school day,,,and some "not so pretty" streets

time to head back to the ship.

Second port:

Costa Maya, Mexico

There was also entertainment... men climbing to the top of a high poll... secured with ropes, then slowly winding down and then in full swing.  

video available when you come to visit us.

Third stop:

 Cozumel, Mexico 

And a long coast for tourists... a typical "mall" of souvenirs.  First stop,  $5. T shirt !   Done ! 

And a "taste" of home  

And free Wi-Fi...  we thought
 (When we got back to USA, we realized that most messages did not come through. )

Our final port
and my favorite:

Ocean Cay ..
  The private island of the cruise ship and...

They served lunch...delicious corn on the cob 

That is our ship... private beaches... beautiful sky 

My feet in the Atlantic Ocean, yes it was warm 

Brilliant  colors

  

Final view... more colorful delight  

I live an exciting life.
