The National flag, it wasn't windy so I couldn't get a good picture of it. After we went back across the river I saw this large lizard sitting on the bank. I tried to get close to get a good shot of him but the locals said to stay back so I did.
I zoomed in, it's not too bad. He was probably about 3 feet with the tail. They had vendors lined up by the bus so I browsed a bit and bought a necklace. It was my Aztec Astrological sign hand carved in wood by the locals, I love it. After that we drove to a very cool restaurant and had lunch, listened to a local band play, ate native foods and had a few drinks.
Then I met up with mom, did some shopping and went back to the ship.
Well, here we are, safe and sound. At dinner I said I wanted "Nothing" for dessert and she brought me a plate that said "Nothing" in chocolate syrup. Mom and I thought these flowers were pretty so I got a pic with them. Our waiters were so good, after the first time I asked for lemon slices for the water they brought them every night for me without me asking, how sweet is that. You usually have up to 5 people serving you at dinner so it gets confusing to us who we talk to for what. There's the water/bread/condiment person, the order taker who's in charge of making sure each person gets the right food, made the way they want it and at the right time. They usually serve each course separately so if you didn't order anything in that course you have to wait till they serve the next course to get your food. Strange. Then there's the wine person who takes care of your order, brings you unused bottles before asking if you'd like another bottle, they let you have samples of wine if you're not sure and they know everything you need to know to get the perfect selection to go with your meal. Then there's the 2nd assistant who also takes plates away and brings more food. And a Maitre D, who checks on your meal and your dinning experience. If there's anything special you need, a complaint or suggestion, or praise for the chef he's the guy to talk to. He will even get the head chef to come out and talk to you if you wish. It's quite a system they have and you feel so taken care of it's amazing.
Ok, so after dinner I went and changed and got ready for the evening's events. Now, here's a small warning for those younger viewers. Some of the ship's crew did a striptease for us so there's gonna be half naked men here, so beware, lookout, hide your eyes, skip to the bottom or just enjoy.
I hope you enjoyed our little risqué dance party. Now back to our regular cruise pictures.
I had a blast dancing and even got a few lap dances, not bad!!!!! It was all in good fun and everyone enjoyed themselves.
Next up is Thursday, that means we're going to Cozumel, Mexico.
