We love both Eagle and Mambo beach. The set up for Mambo is more resort like with lots of loungers, beach bars, etc. where Eagle you can just go off on your own and not be surrounded by a lot of people. Answer depends on what you are in the mood for, IMO. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lionesss Posted October 8, 2022 #73606 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Lizzy is 12 weeks old today. Our best buddy. When she recharges her batteries she walks all over us till she finds the comfy spot and collapses. It could be on your lap or longways with her head on your shoulder. Play time consists of Zoomies Hiding behind curtains Looking out front windows As well as playing with window chimes. Favorite toys Wine corks pipe cleaners. Bad habits Attack mode when ignored South paw to be exact. Getting comfy on tables. When she restles no claws or biting. Just grabbing on like an octopus. Very friendly. Her “ Meows” are so soft and sweet. Lover girl. You can hear her motor running in the next room. (((((PURR))))!

We had the problem of spreading the wealth around. Carnival, NCL, Princess, Celebrity, and Royal. We are now pretty exclusive to Royal or Celebrity, depending on the deal. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We love celebrity suite perks and rccl entertainment, the one other line we will book is MSc yacht club. Doubt we will cruise any of the others which we did in the past. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a beautiful beach.... stretches both directions as far as the eye can see. The waves are a bit stronger here, depending on the weather. I've thought about taking the bus, but a cab is only $15, and I usually have at least one other person to split the cost with, so it's more convenient (and easier on my bad knees) to just take a taxi instead of walking into town for the bus. Mambo Beach is nice. There are rocks all across the outer edge so the waves are really mild to non-existent. There are several beach clubs along the length of the beach -- rent a chair, get food/drink, etc. There are a lot of rocks/coral as you're entering the water, so you might want to bring water shoes, but once you're in past your knees, it's sandy. There is decent snorkeling along the rocks, and you can go all the way to the left and go outside the rocks if you want more reef action for snorkeling. And there are all kinds of stores and restaurants on two different levels. To get to the taxi stand, you have to turn right at the end of the pier, past all the buses for Royal excursions, and walk through/past the area where they're selling tours and continue on until you see a small roof/tent/shelter on the left. I think it says "TAXI" on it, or there's a sign right next to it that says "TAXI". They wait until they have a handful of people who want to go to Mambo Beach, and then it's $8pp each direction. Where they drop you off at the beach is where you get a taxi to come back, too -- same deal, they wait until they have at least 4-5 people before they make the trip. One time there were three of us, and they offered to take us right then for $25 instead of $8pp... it was worth it to me to pay the extra dollar and not have to wait around at that point. Here's a little map of the Curacao port. Every time I've been there, there has been a Carnival ship at the pier in front of the Tour Sales, so I'm assuming Allure will dock where Explorer did. Thanks for the details on that. I need to research Mambo. There will be 5 of us on this cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ozark_Kid Posted October 8, 2022 #73616 Share Posted October 8, 2022 (edited) It has been hard to keep up here. So busy the last two weeks and several good Live Reviews to keep up with. Not slowing down this week. Besides getting ready to leave I need to get the garden prepped to plant garlic before we leave. I was in the garden hours yesterday. So much my leg was cramping that evening. Good thing Kenzie was visiting. She ran over and started rubbing on it..... Gpa OK, Gpa OK? 😆 Edited October 8, 2022 by Ozark_Kid 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not ! I have a question why is Tampa Bay starting a pitcher today at Noon that has only played 2 games all season. Is their coach saving their starters for next season because right now they are down 1-0 to Cleveland? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a cool 41° with light rain at game time. Now we are ready to leave to watch our granddaughter cheer at her away game. At least the sun is out now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many people who are older than your BIL and I never forgave the Dodgers for leaving .It was a special time for kids who had a baseball team so close to where they lived.I am referring to your BIL and I and not the older fans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
