The weather was sunny but windy. The boat docked at Punta Langosta pier which is a great location for shopping and restaurants. We had a leisurely breakfast then headed off the ship for some shopping. When we exited the pier we were inundated with men trying to get us to come into their stores. We walked for what seemed like a mile past many stores and each one tried to convince us to enter their establishment, “Come in, take a look, almost free”. After passing a couple stores, I think we saw everything there was available for purchase in Cozumel (jewelry, trinket items made in China, t-shirts 3 for $20, Mexican vanilla, tequila, panchos in your favorite NFL team’s colors).
When we arrived at what appeared to be the town square we decided to walk back to the pier on block inland. The shop workers weren’t as persistent and it wasn’t quite as windy.
We stopped at the Hard Rock Cafe for a beer before returning to the ship. We only spent about 2 1/2 hours in Cozumel. If we return to Cozumel in the future, we’ll spend the day at the beach or just stay onboard.
Back onboard we relaxed for a while before going to see Disney’s new movie, Frozen. I love that Disney shows first run movies onboard their ships.
After the movie, we donned our pirate outfits. Yes, it was Pirate night on the ship!
They have two shows on deck 11, one with Mickey and pals, the other is the Buccaneer Blast complete with Captain Jack Sparrow and fireworks! And let me tell you some guest’s costumes are so good they look like they’re part of the show. No more t-shirts with cute pirate sayings, I need to rethink my next cruise’s pirate outfit.
Most of the guests dress up as pirates. Disney leaves bandanas in your stateroom just in case you weren’t prepared.
