After some quality casino time, it was time for a pre-dinner drink at Alchemy.

 

The menu:

Could not get a seat at the bar where the entertainment was, but were served at the tables. DH had a Dark and Stormy

They lit the garnish and when it burned out put in the drink.

DH had Linguini Carbonara and I had Lobster and Shrimp, at least I didn't eat the shell before I took the picture

Same thing with my apples in puff pastry with caramel sauce

Obviously I enjoyed my dinner. After dinner we saw 88 keys, the show about piano bars. Christine played for about 30 minutes before the show. We thought about going to the piano bar. but were both tired and had Cozumel in the morning. We returned to a towel animal and a notice of possible traffic issues in Cozumel due to Carnaval.

we will be on the pride next sunday. do the bars have happy hour or drink specials?

 

Have a good time. In Alchemy they would have a $1 off a type of drink (infused vodka). EA sports had a $1 off and on the lido deck they would have a dollar off the drink of the day, but not a buy one get one happy hour like I have seen on NCL.

Oh man. Good thing I have a year to save up for my cocktail budget! I have a feeling I'll be SPENDING!

 

Yes, it was a great place to spend time, but beware before dining times, 6 and 8:15, you can't get near the place, so either be there before or wait until a few minutes afterwards.

Really enjoying your review! We will be back on the Pride in April, and I am loving your food pictures. :D

 

Thanks, DH sometimes complains about all the food pictures, but I feel it is part of the experience, plus since food does not move it is much easier to take pictures of it.

My scanner is weird and slow. Some of these will be skewed, but I know how much I like to look at the Fun Times before I left.

Decided to have a breakfast burrito and arepa before we left. I find the breakfast burrito a great alternative to the buffet on port days.

We were docked at Puerta Maya, you had to exit and enter through the Durfy store.

We took a cab to Mr. Sancho's for $17, it was about a 20 minute ride. I had booked the romance package for $200, a $30 deposit and $170 upon arrival. It included the cabana, all food and drink, a rose and a 30 minute massage for each of us.

 

We had the cabana, a lounger, a couple of tables with chairs and an umbrella

The Swim up Bar is one of my favorite things about Mr. Sanchos but the water was cold, we had previously been here in February and don't remember it being cold. I believe the cold weather in the North affected the water.
