We got up around 830am and made it to breakfast around 915am & were ready to get off and wander around 1030am.
Ruthie strapped her scooter ramp on to the back of her scooter~ for just in cases.
We decided instead of going on a tour to walk to the New Mall & Wal-Mart. Along the way we met up with Annie, Alan and Shirley and continued on with them.
We walked along the inside of the pier where the Disney Magic docks and when we got past the Capitania De Puerto Harbor Master’s office we turned right toward the gate which once thru put us right across the street from Wal-mart and to the far right is the Mall.
Once across the street there were ramp cut outs all along until we got just across the street from the mall where we enlisted a big security guard to assist us up and down 2 curbs.
Once up on the sidewalk again there was a ramp on the far left leading right up to the top of the stairs and that led us into the Mall thru sliding glass doors.
The Mall is very new with a Star Bucks, Hagen Dass, Chili’s, Nike, Radio Shack and a multitude of other stores and restaurants.
Annie & Shirley decided to both have there hair done so we split up.
Not long after that we found Betsy and Ken in a Senor Frogs outlet store and we both bought a few green items to use for St Patrick Day tomorrow since Mexico doesn’t seem to know what St Patrick’s day is or celebrate it down here!
We walked together with Betsy & Ken thru the rest of the Mall and took a few pictures outside of our ship across the way & pointed out the quickest way to walk back to the ship.
On the way to Wal-Mart we met up with those same two curbs and no ramps – so we got out Ruth’s little ramp and used it to get across.
Once we got into Wal-Mart it seemed if every one of the Splendor passengers had gone shopping. And most of them were heading directly to the “Farmacia” for cold remedies, cough drops & Antibiotics.
We wandered thru a huge store and I found 3 mangoes to bring them back to the ship to enjoy.
Once thru the register line I gave my Mexican change to the bagger girl and we found the door and headed across the parking lot back to the ship.
Once across the busy street we knocked on the window of the little building next to the closed gate we had come out of & the guy inside came out & opened it & let us thru shutting it behind us.
We took pictures as we slowly meandered back to the ship.
I headed back thru the same parrot caged area I had walked thru before but the guard caught Ruth & about 5 other people and made them go out and around.
I found a quiet seat in the shade, people watched & waited for Ruth to find me.
But she never appeared.
She must have decided to go shopping across the street at the Flea Market . . . so after about 20 minutes of people watching I headed back on the ship, found some friends and had lunch & a cold drink.
