Day 5

 Day 5 of our 9-day trip finds us anchored 1o miles away from the island of Belize.

To reach the city, we were tendered in which took about 25 minutes.  We left the ship at a bout 9:30am and it was a fine ride in.

The area where we docked was just like a lot of these ports, a made for the cruise industry and they make it hard to walk out, like almost hiding the exit.  We knew where we were going and started to walk into town but decided to take a $10 car down to the far end of the city to see the Cathedral.  It was very little and then we had the cab driver take us back to the main street where we walked around for a little, didn’t find a place we wanted to eat and walked about 15 minutes back to the docks.

There was not a wait for the tender and we made it back to the ship at 12:30pm where we met Barb and Tim, who had stayed on the ship, for lunch.

Of course, lunch was great in the huge Oceanview Café.

After that, we stayed out on the top floor until 3:30pm when we came in and got ready to go play in the Casino at 4:30pm.

We met Barb & Tim in the casino where Ed had his best win of the trip and Barb was a great cheerleader.

After that we came back to the cabin to get ready for the evening.

The entertainment for the night in the show lounge was a production number called Rockumentary and it was very good.

After the show we went to eat in the fourth restaurant that is included in our cruise, the Cosmopolitan

Dinner was excellent and then of course, we went to the casino where Ed  won and Barb lost a little

All in all, a nice day.

Tomorrow is Cozumel, Mexico.
