As you may recall, last November, we visited the Banana Bay Resort and Marina for Paella by the Pool. It was a great experience, and we have mentioned it to some fellow cruisers. Several were interested in giving it a try.
The crews of Midori, Living Well, Traumari and SUNSHINE gathered for the short walk to Banana Bay from the City Marina. As usual, the setting was nice, poolside with the lush gardens of the resort within view. Michael J provided the entertainment. Mona E., a vocalist and a 93 year old trumpet player joined him for a couple of songs each.
Two important things have changed on Paella night. Firstly, the price has increased by a whopping $5.00 (from 7.95 to $12.95)! Secondly, we were a bit disappointed that the owner/chef no longer makes the paella on his gas fired paella pan at the table. It was fun watching him whip up a batch of the colorful seafood dish.
Still, we enjoyed the meal, the entertainment and the company. One of the joys of cruising in making new friends!
