Most Excellent Adventure - Day Nine, Sea Day 5

Costa Maya was a lot of fun. The Sun was out in full force and the temperature made it to 78.2 degrees. The port was smaller than I imagined but it was quaint and the land around it very flat for as far as we could see. We kept to our routine of Breakfast at 8:30. The ship docked so we were able to take HDTech onshore. It was amazing how much stuff was for sale in such a small area. The vendors were constantly trying to get you into their store and always wanted to deal to get you to buy from them. Green Giant got his tequila he wanted. But he has to wait until we get to Miami to get it. Wild Mom found a ring she wanted in every store but alas funds were the stopping point. Lady and TL were all over the place looking and dealing. I managed to find a bracelet for the girls in my life ... they are handmade. Wild Mom paid her dues for yesterday's escapades as she overslept in the morning and over napped in the afternoon. She did manage to collect all the charms for her bracelet. That thing must weigh 2 pounds now. The afternoon was free flow as everyone did what they wanted ... naps, sun bathing, or sitting on deck reading. The Sea Bass for dinner was excellent. We watched 2 shows by the Cats Pajamas. They are good and the show is very entertaining. Tonight ended with ice cream and cookies. We tried to get into the "Dancing With the Jewel Stars" but the place was full and sitting in the back would not have been fun.
