TxTeach79's LIVE Regal return to Princess Solo Thanksgiving - 11/19/23

[TxTeach79]

Hasn’t been anyone for a while, but the gangway is still open and the dockworkers haven’t started to untie us yet….

I’m back & caught up. We are on port side so can’t see pier runners so counting on @TxTeach79 to keep me informed. Too tired right now to leave the cabin. 
We took ship excursion to Island Beach Club. Good food & drinks. Didn’t love the water. Lots of rocks and sand that sucks you down. Nice pool. Did the fish spa. Loved the fish tickling my feet. 

We did Sabatinis last night. Good food but entirely too much. We had a family incident during dinner between my son in law & his mother. It had nothing to do with me but was uncomfortable. So I ordered a Chivas on the rocks & went to Club 6. And continued drinking Chivas on the rocks til 1:00 am. 

It has been an interesting cruise. 😳

yeah, that’s my current lean. Honestly, I’ve been on a lot of holiday sailings on a lot of lines, and I never really love the holiday MDR meals

People are screaming at them to “RUNNNN!” but they aren’t.

I need to match your hours tonight. Sabatinis is tomorrow because I NEED to pass out early the last night. Tonight it’s party time.

They started to run the last half and the entire starboard side went nuts cheering. Gets me every time. 

[TxTeach79]

That a pretty good reach. Connected to that network for a lot of days!

 

[TxTeach79]

a few more a half hour late, no real hurry

 

[TxTeach79]

35 minutes late. Taking her sweet time. People have kind of given up on cheering, they’re not giving us much to work with

Water here is consistently some of the most beautiful 

 

Well it’s not Barbados

Booooo

[TxTeach79]

Okay there must have been an excursion that ran late. Here’s a flood of people that just got off that boat

only been once on my honeymoon on the old Sun Princess; my ex was so sunburned from the day before in Isla Margarita that we couldn’t get off the ship and Princess gave her a freaking wheelchair. Not that I’m bitter. 

[TxTeach79]

Okay I get why the captain waited. That’s a lot of people. 
 

 

[TxTeach79]

I meant to post these pictures. Not the same ones twice. Oops.

Ropes up for us and Pride at the same time

I’ve never sailed Coral or Island! Where is the lounge on those ships?

[TxTeach79]

The last people are back - with motorized escort - 1:15 late. Huge cheers erupt from starboard side!

Explorers

Pride just blasted her horn. That’s the spot I love so much on Spirit class ships. Entering Tracy Arm, Sailaway from Juneau, sailing under bridges in Lisbon and San Fran… just the best 

 

[TxTeach79]

We’re heading out at the same time as Pride. Literally the same cruise the whole way.

yeah, I booked through a site called resort for a day, was a $20 deposit and $45 on site. So $65 total. Once you’re out of Puerta Maya it’s probably a 5-7 minute walk on the sidewalk the whole way

You need to check out Nachi Cochum. It will require a cab ride but it is a little cheaper & LOVELY.

Looks like MSC Seascape and a Jewel class NCL ship down there
