My guess of towel art is a turtle.

 

I was thinking snail, but I see where you are coming from.

Only at the pool bar last week could we find pina coladas.

I am unclear what happened. But the pool bar found some pina colada mix!  No Kracken but Gosling works. Perfect for movie watching.

They didn’t have it this morning but have it now. 🤷‍♂️

Today is Tuesday. At least that’s what the elevator says. 
 

Today was Cozumel. 

 

That’s not my thumb..

 

Independence of the Sea pulled in after us 

We went on a private Jeep tour with

I can’t say enough good things about this company and our cruise guide, Alice. 
 

You can pick what you want to do.  So we started at Tequila distillery. 

 

Then we went to San Gervasio

 

Then we went to a lighthouse and climbed up top. 

Then we went and saw a crocodile. (No pic)

Then we had late lunch and snorkeled at Tortuga’s. 

 

Now I’m back on the boat and the pool bar still has pina colada mix!

Our traveling companions did that same tour and loved it too! They had fun playing with the crocodiles. Glad you still have access to your pina coladas.

That’s an awesome pic!  The croc was hiding in the shadows under the boardwalk today so he wasn’t as photogenic as that.

Tonight’s animal. My daughter has a guess and it’s related to Fridays dinner.

Robert at the Champagne Bar  asked us what we like and made two new (to us) drinks

 

Nonfrozen strawberry daiquiri 

 

Chocolate martini

Both were excellent.

That chocolate martini might just be the thing I am looking forward to most next week!!! I've been watching all of the live reviews waiting to see someone post one!!

Yup. Robert recommended that tomorrow he’d make an espresso martini and a Hugo for us.

Darn, I never made it into the Champagne bar. I walked by it multiple times but never patronized it. I guess I spent most of my drinking time in the Duck & Dog pub and the Schooner bar.

I'm not sure why but the Champagne Bar is not a place that I typically go. Maybe the name makes the place seem sort of specialized?

We didn’t until our last cruise on adventure.  Loved every minute.

The Champagne bar was our go to bar before dinner. Robert is the best!

I told him people two cruises ago said that he’d treat us well and I needed to treat him well. He asked the name and I knew @HBCcruiserwasn’t going to work. So I showed him the picture you posted. He said “There is a Internet forum talking about cruises?”  “Yes cruise critic”. I told him he was internet famous. LOL. 
 

I wouldn’t have gone if not for @HBCcruiser   Thank you for the perfect recommendation!  10 out of 10 drink glasses.

Glad we could help. He knows us by Tiffany, Chris, Paul and the young girls. You can show him our pic. Also, our suite was 9694. Also, if you get up to the Blue Moon dance club on deck 14 at night, ask for Joselino the bartender. He can teach you some great Bar tricks!!
