The Last photos of my Oct. Cruise Aren't you glad???

Our last stop on our cruise was Ensenada. We took a tour into the city to see an old retired casino which in its day was the "Hot Spot" for the Americans during the 1940's, 50's and 60's. Infact well known movie stars came down from Hollywood to gamble. Jack Demsey the famous boxer in his day actually built the casino for his Hollywood friends. Later on, however, the town outlawed gambling. This beautiful building then became a reception center.

These were the handcarved, handpainted, wooden ceilings.

Beautiful handpainted murals adorned all of the walls displaying the starlets and night life of the era.

Next we went on a tour of the local winery. Everyone from our bus got to have a wine tasting session. Of course we didn't partake. Our tour guide couldn't believe it. She said, "Your are in Ensenada> This is the best wine in the country and you're not tasting????

Inside the winery were funny paintings of people getting drunk in the winery.

Before we got on the bus to go back to the ship we did some shopping and had something to eat at this outside bar. It was really decked out with displays and bright colors.

We even saw our state's liscence plate from the 1996 centennial.

IT WAS A GREAT CRUISE....LOTS OF FUN....GOOD FOOD...GOTTA DO IT AGAIN!!!!!!
