Happy Thanksgiving!
My day didn’t have the best beginning….
We set the clocks back one-hour last night…. I updated the time on my iPhone and Fitbit
but forgot the alarm clock…. you can guess
how that turned out. I was headed out
for sail in photos at what I thought was 6:15 am but alas, it was 5:15 am. I hate when that happens…. Anyway, took a bunch of photos sailing into
Puerto Limón which was complicated by someone choosing to burn garbage along the
shore, blanketing the city with smoke.
After docking, I went ashore and just started walking and taking photos…. I got off the beaten track and a good Samaritan
advised me to vacate the area, it wasn’t safe….
Especially with a big camera on a harness. Funny, that’s the second time that has
happened to me in Puerto Limon…. No wonder
it’s not my favorite spot. If you’re not
going out for some Ecotourism, like the Tortuguero Canals for wildlife viewing,
it’s not going to be a very fulfilling day….
I did enjoy the day, got to go for a long walk, snapped some nice photos
and enjoyed sitting in the sun. One
other thing…. I am so impressed with the
Captain and his staff…. To see them
lined up at the gangway greeting you as you head off for the day is quite
amazing. It really shows that the guests
are important to them and they are willing to do that little bit extra to show
it…. Well done! Now it’s two days at sea as we make our way
back to Ft. Lauderdale….
Happy Thanksgiving, (belatedly). love your pictures as usual, stay safe out there!
ReplyDeleteHi Jeff, So glad your next adventure has begun and is off to a great start.
ReplyDeleteHappy that the Zuiderdam is receiving high marks from you. We'll be joining the ship on 12/5 and I hope I've thawed out by then.
My condolences on Carole's passing. Thankful Aart is doing well and you'll be sharing time together.
I love all the ship pictures too. I always wonder what stories they could tell.
