With the port days behind us, our last sea day begins and we're starting with a pasta making class. I've been super excited about this one and am ready to learn and taste yummy Italian goodness.

Girls Trip - Day 7 - Cozumel and Chef's Table
Our final port day is today and Kelly is in charge. We are going to be in Cozumel, Mexico and just do some exploring around the island. However, before that happens (we are not even docked yet) I am wandering the ship in the early hours and have a few more pictures for you. The towel animals are on display on lido today. Take a peek.

Girls Trip - Day 6 - Mahahual (Costa Maya), Mexico
What a beautiful morning! It's another port day and today we are stopping in Costa Maya, which is simply the name of the port (and, again, pretty much owned by the cruise lines). The town is Mahahual. New to you? Yep, me too and I've been to Costa Maya before. The last time was in 2005 and I was with a ton of family, so not venturing too far out. I'm up before the sun again this morning and it's simply divine.

Girls Trip - Day 5 - Isla Roatan, Honduras
Buenos Dias! We are getting our feet on land today and I'm super stoked. THIS day is why I booked this cruise. Well, not completely truthful - turning Platinum was the main reason, but this itinerary was because of today. Hello Isla Roatan. The pilot boat is guiding us in as I arrive on the upper decks.

Girls Trip - Day 4 - Sea Day Relaxing and a Rescue
With another Sea Day at hand, we're relaxing and taking it slow this morning. Well, I was until I realized the ship had stopped. As I was dressing, Kelly woke and asked the same question, "Why are we stopped?" I replied that I was on my way to find out. Up to the deck I went and discovered that we are meeting up with the Coast Guard from Cancun as we have a couple of people who need to depart due to a medical emergency. Okay, that makes sense. I take a picture of the Cancun shoreline to show how close we are, go back to the room to share info with Kelly, and then leave to meet Frieda for breakfast. The ship is back to cruising.

Girls Trip - Day 2 - Galveston and Boarding Jubilee
Good morning Y'all. Not much sleep last night - most due to worry about Ryan but a teeny bit because I'm excited for today. Ryan made it through the night and is being life-flighted today to Denver. It's a good sign so far and it looks like maybe no surgery. We'll know more later.
We have packed and re-packed, the car is loaded, shirts match and the girls are on their way. Galveston, next stop.
