April Fools Day

Sea Day and Captain's Club Celebration in Constellation Club - Deck 11 Fwd.

We were treated to cocktails, entertainment and FOOD.  One of the perks of being loyal cruise customers.
Currently at the Select level, we are slowly and steadily working our way to ELITE status.  Having experienced it on our first cruise - we are very motivated to achieve it again - permanently!  One more cruise and we'll be there.

Monday, April 2 was a Train, Bus and Boat tour in Costa Rica.  The highlight was seeing the crocodiles. They were trained to make their presences known every time a boat approached - because the drivers' fed them raw chicken.  Will work for food!

April 3, Sea Day.  At 2:45 we had a backstage tour of the theater, but it was not much of a tour.  We had a much better one while on the Century ship.  But, this was our Qsine dining experience night and we totally enjoyed the entire experience, start to finish!  Hopefully, they'll have these on many more of the Celebrity ships.  Right now just a few have it.

Wednesday, April 4.  Puerto Quetzal, Guatemala.  We took an Estates & Gardens tour of a former coffee plantation.  It's now owned by a doctor who's had 7 wives.  He no longer lives there, just uses it for tours and it must be quite a money-maker, judging by the number of people who visited while we were there.
It had a zoo of sorts and cobblestone walkways that were difficult to maneuver.  A snack lunch was served and then it was back to the ship.  This was by far the best port shopping experience.  A jade museum also had jewelry to sell, as well as many handicraft items.
