Day 9 Puerto Caldera, Costa Rica

Today was pretty interesting….  Aart & I had pretty much decided to stay on the ship, just go on the dock and walk around a bit.  I have been in the area a number of times in the past.  While it is a great place for Eco-tourism, I wasn’t in the mood for that today.  Then we awoke this morning to overcast and rainy weather…..  No pool time for me so we decided to go to Punta Arenas, about a half hour taxi ride away.  It was a nice trip and we enjoyed exploring the city.  We took some time for drinks at a local bar and just enjoyed the day.  It was nice to run around and have an opportunity to snap a few photos.  We returned to the ship and…..  the sun miraculously came out and it was pool time again.  What a day!  One other thing…. For my Spanish speaking friends, my friend Jesus, in Spain, has a website where my blog is translated and republished for the cruise aficionados in Spain.  He just published an interview with me at  http://cruceroadicto.com/entrevistando-jeff-farshman.html  I hope my friends in Spain enjoy my World Adventure on Holland America Line…..

  3. Most people never know their photo was taken. I like "natural" shots. I sometimes ask, if required. I generally avoid paying for photos because it fosters a bad example for kids.
