Cruise Sketchbook - Cozumel!

The ship docked at Cozumel early Saturday morning. We got off the boat, looked around for a cab, and found Javier. He has a big taxi van and took us and about seven others to a beach club, where we claimed some beach chairs and got some margaritas and fish tacos.

Cruise Sketchbook: Day Two Perch

At lunch on our first full day at sea we grabbed a really good table. Outside, in the back, giving each of us a perfect view but covered to help with the wind and the tropical sun on our winter selves. Since there were five of us, at least one of us was there to save the table at all times while others wandered around or got more drinks. We stayed here for hours talking, eating, drinking, reading and laughing until we went upstairs on the open deck to watch the sun set.
