Hasta Manana

That’s today’s drink on the Magic.  Of course that translates to "see you later" in Spanish.  The weather is balmy 90 degrees, the Mariachi band is playing on Deck 9 and I can hear them here from where I sit in the Cove Cafe.  

Today was another wonderful day in port.  When the alarm went off at 6:30 am this morning, I said aloud, "Who is the dork who planned this early morning excursion?"  Of course, there was only myself to blame.  The regret was momentary.  Because we had a wonderful Hike to The Lighthouse to which to look forward.  We met our guide just as we got off the ship.  She was a wonderful local woman named Bricia.  We drove to  the hill and began our way up.  It wasn’t an easy hike.  We climbed a little over 300 steps at the top.  We were hot and sweaty, but the views were absolutely worth it.  (Photos to come later!)

Bricia then gave us some great information about the city, including a great lunch spot called the Panama.  She was right on the money!  A lot of locals were eating there and we even saw her there eating later in the day.

Tonight we head to Animator’s Palate.  My group of four have donned our black and white Disney character tees….very apropos.

So until we meet again, I raise my drink to you and shout out "Hasta Manana" (sans tilde) from Mazatlan!
