  1. Yes they are open on Saturdays and even Sundays. Our saving grace as no vets work on Sundays and so many beloved pets have died on a Sunday not knowing this. Us included in December 2014.

     

    Where are you from? Your posts don't show this.

     

    Oh no! I hate to hear about the pet you lost. They really do become part of our families, don't they? I've lived in about half a dozen states, but currently call South Carolina home.

  2. I did a Google Map search and yes it is only a 15 minute walk from where the Carnival ships dock but I wouldn't take the roads they suggested. I moved the path to more open roads and would use it instead which is just then 18 minutes. It would be even less if you are at the International Pier.

    When are you coming? And on what ship?

     

    Fantastic! Thank you for this information. We will be arriving on the Carnival Triumph on Saturday, December 30. It occurred to me that the Humane Society may not be open on weekends, but I sent an email earlier this evening. I am hopeful that we will be able to visit & walk some sweet pups!

  3. If there is a group of you I would make arrangements ahead of time. Laurita is wonderful and speaks English.

    It is not far from the south end cruise piers so shouldn't cost too much but I wouldn't want you to go over there and there is a reason you can't visit. Check the website for their phone numbers and e-mail address. Tell them Betty suggested visiting. I volunteer doing transport runs to the Cancun airport. This is taking dogs over to the airport so they can fly to Canada or the USA to be adopted.

     

    Sometimes the dogs need walks or just to play and socialize the puppies. They would also love donations too as sometimes we can't get things here on the island and we ask visitors to bring from Canada and US.

     

    Thanks, Betty! I will contact Laurita. It will just be the two of us. I looked up the location last night, and it looks like it is just a 15 minute walk from Puerta Maya, so we would likely just walk over, unless there is some reason we shouldn't? We are flying to New Orleans to board the ship, but could possibly bring a few things. Thank you again for this great idea!

  4. Hi folks. I'm looking for suggestions for something new, unique, or different to do when our ship docks in Cozumel. Like many cruisers, we have been to Cozumel many times before, and have exhausted many of the typical activity choices, including an island jeep tour, SUP at Mr. Sanchos, a trip over to Playa, a day at Paradise Beach, and shopping/exploring in San Miguel. We (my boyfriend and I) are active and enjoy activities like biking and kayaking. The only caveat is that my boyfriend has really expensive contact lenses that he absolutely cannot see without, that make water activities like snorkeling or swimming in a cenote, a no-go. Soooo... any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Happy cruising everyone! :D

  5. Years ago, (I can't even remember what ship it was on), I won the contest... During the sailaway party, they asked for people who wanted to enter, to fill out an entry form and submit a "recipe", including drink name, and some stats about yourself. Later that evening, those who were selected as contestants, got a little note in their mailbox with instructions for what to do the day of the contest. The winner was chosen from 4 or 5 crew members. Everyone who entered got a "ticket" for a free drink. I got four free drink tickets and a medal. (I was bummed that it wasn't a ship on a stick. LOL!) Good luck! :D
