Fat Tuesday, A Great Bar and Restaurant in Cozumel Mexico

Image
On our cruises we always forgo the meal on the ship and take in a local eatery on port days.  An open air restaurant and bar on the docks turned out to be a great place to lunch while exploring the shopping area.   We didn't go far this time in Cozumel.  Karan, Patty, Mom and I just enjoyed the atmosphere in the pretty village of shops right at the dock.  We chose Fat Tuesday for a silly reason... Swings were available to amuse those waiting to be seated.  Mom always seems to find a swing here in Cozumel.  On the last trip it was in a private garden. The wait staff were very helpful and had great suggestions.  The breezes off the water were wonderful on a hot September day! Karan and I were glad to sit and enjoy them.

Disney World is now getting dressed for Christmas, but when I went last week, I enjoyed the Fall flowers tremendously. Black Eyed Susan's are a favorite of mine!   These were in Frontierland and I noticed them in front of me as I rocked in an available rocking chair on the wooden sidewalk Packed with shades of color!  I did catch in the photo (up in the corner), a glimpse of my rocking friend who was allowing her grandchild a nap in the middle of the afternoon.   A strolling band came by and began playing.  It was nice to have the time to really enjoy them.  The baby slept through it all.  Sharing with Monday Mellow Yellows Sundays in My City Our World Tuesday
