Cozumel and Craps

Sunset through the window at dinner


Breakdancers that Matt saw while I was doing other more fun things



This is the view from the dock at Cozumel. There were two Carnival ships.

Our dinner table. We ate dinner at 6:00 with the same group each night. They were great and so much fun! We enjoyed getting to know them with 4 dinners together.

Because you sit at the same table each night, we got the same serves as well. Daniela (on the left) is from Croatia and James (on the right) is from Jamaica. They were really great and made dinner more memorable.
Starting with the Captain's Dinner and then each night after, the servers all sing and dance for a song. It was always silly and pretty entertaining to watch. Daniela told us she doesn't like to do this.
Here is my craps teacher, Dinetti. I don't know how to spell her name and it took us a few time to get it right. Her and Phil live in St. Pete. Phil spent much time at the craps table and I had been wanting to go the casino. I didn't have anything in mind to play, so we started where Phil was heading.
The above picture was from the first night when Matt was at the breakdancing show. After learning most of the game, I decided to play. Unfortunately, you can't really just start with a small amount. I put in $20 and that was lost pretty quick. I put in $40 more and after about an hour total, I had lost my $60. I had a much better understanding of strategy and what I needed to do to actually win money though. Matt came into the casino and wasn't too upset that I lost $60. That night, he had a dream that I won $1500 in the casino so he said on our last night, we would go back. That is what the rest of the pictures are from. He gave me $60 to start with and that again lasted about 45 minutes or so. He gave me $20 more. We had a great few hours off of that money! I got some really good rolls and was dubbed "Lady Shooter" by the dealer. We had a guy that looked like Dale Earnhardt that had some lucky streaks too. I actually was in the positive for a long time. You know you should stop at that point, but the whole table was having way to much fun.





I only lost $25 between both nights in the casino, but it was totally worth the fun. Matt is grateful that the nearest casino doesn't have a craps table.
