Day 76 San Diego, California (Part 1 of 2)

The day started out on a sad note, saying goodbye to friends…..  There were a number of staff members who went off on vacation until the World Voyage…  I will miss them!  Our Cruise Director, Gene Young left, he’ll be missed….  I’m sure he’ll do well on the Prinsendam.  He’s one of the best I’ve seen.  Hope he makes it back to the Amsterdam.  I hope all my friends made it home safely…  Today, I went, as advertised, to the San Diego Zoo.  It was a wonderful day and yes, I took way too many photos so….  I have posted in two parts.  Also, here is the itinerary for the next 31 days of my voyage:

Day 75 At Sea

Today turned out much better than expected…..  I sat out a good portion of the day and enjoyed reading.  Tonight was difficult….. saying goodbye to people that you lived with for 2 ½ months is difficult.  I reunited with some very special friends and made some new friends that are amazing.  It’s a shame things can’t just continue but in the end nothing  ever stays the same, you always have to adapt and move forward.  The good thing is that I am just over a month away from joining my “World Cruise” family which is always very special….  Tomorrow, it’s off to the San Diego Zoo!
