We stayed up reading pretty late last night so by the time we got up we were already docked in Cozumel. We were right next to the Celebrity Summit, they looked small in comparison to us. At a closer look there is rust on parts of the ship. These are parts that will not show when you are on the ship but I was surprised to see that. I am not sure of the age of the ship or when it was last refurbished. I will add, they had fruit infused ice water and cool cloths on the dock for their passengers as they returned. A nice touch we did not have.

John got his breakfast and I got my coffee then we headed off the ship to walk about. There were many excursions to choose from but neither of us wanted to go on anything we saw so we opted to just walk around. We browsed a few shops and bought a few things for some of the kids but then realized neither of us brought a credit card along! So after a couple hours when my cash was spent we headed back to the ship. About an hour later it started to rain. It was approximately 82*F at that time and remained about the same temperature all day.
They have a button on the elevator that is for the Gangway. You no longer have to wonder what deck you exit on. Push that button and when you get to the programmed deck it says "Get out now to exit the ship" - It's the one with the star! Nice touch for the continually confused passenger!
John went on the zipline but there was a delay in that because of the intermittent rain. While we waited we watched the Flow Riders and played miniature golf. We passed the 2 sets of ping pong tables, which are wisely enclosed so one is not chasing the ball all over the deck. There is a nice basketball/soccer/volleyball court as well. This is the deck that also has the Abyss water slide. No - we did not do that! We had a snack at yet another restaurant called Mini Bites. They have burgers, fries, hot dogs, nachos with lots of various toppings, desserts, and I am not really sure what else. It is a small place but the line moved quickly.
There he goes!
I think the clouds behind this make it more threatening!

Mini Golf - There is a young child section as well.

We rented Jason Borne as a movie late in the afternoon and skipped dinner because I was too full from the snack. John went and got something later from the Windjammer, I think he said beef fajitas.
Tonight was the musical Columbus. It was a musical comedy about a sailing relative of Christopher Columbus, Marvin Columbus. It was well done and we enjoyed it. There is some real talent on this ship, remarkably strong singers and dancers.

It's hard to believe the week has passed so quickly. Tomorrow is our last day we will be at port back in Fort Lauderdale on Saturday.
