Spring 2023 – Day 7

Well, we made it to Mexico and the port of Carbo San Lucas, Mexico.

When we opened the door to the deck and looked out, it was clear and warm – 75 degrees – WOW or WOW!!

We have never been here before and we had set up a Downtown Food and Tacos Tasting Experience at 11:00am.

The ship was anchored out in the harbor leading to the port so we had to take a tender from the ship to town.

This is truly a tourist down with the waterfront lined with hotels and lots and lots of tourist shops.

The location to start the food tour was about 30 minutes in to the city so we decided to walk and it was fun.

We met the guide and two other couples at a restaurant in town and spent the next 3 hours walking around the center section of town and away from the tourist area.

We sampled all kinds of authentic Mexican food at 6 stops and the tour was wonderful.  Also the last stop was tasting 5 kinds of tequila!!

We got an Uber to take us back to the dock at 2:00pm as the last tender left at 3:00pm.  After the driver left us off, Ed turned wrong and all of a sudden we were where we didn’t want to be.  We got turned around and were able to hustle to the correct dock, with not much time to spare!!

For the evening we went to the suite Lounge and had drinks and talked to some people we knew about their day and ours.

We went to the show which was the music of Broadway by the cast and it was very good.

Of course, our last stop was the casino where Barb lost a little and after being up and down a little, Ed stopped at even and we went to bed as it has been a very tiring day of almost 14,000 steps.

Tomorrow is a day at sea, our last sea day and we plan to sleep in and hope for great weather.

Night for no
