Noon Position: N 16º 28′ 36.00″ – W 100º 39′ 54.00″ Back again. Same old stuff, different day. Actually there are some interesting differences today along with some of the same ol’ same ol’. We started with exercise before breakfast on our veranda. We’re still heading Northwest so we’re on the sunny side of the […]
Noon Position: N 13º 34′ 02.16″ – W 094º 20′ 54.99″ We took advantage of the time change to wake up early and get a couple loads of laundry in before the crowd arrived. There are 4 washers on each floor. On our floor there are 120 staterooms. So they tend to get kind-of busy
Noon Position: N 10º 47′ 07.76″ – W 088º 20′ 29.89″ We slept in, sort of. We didn’t set an alarm but were still awake at the normal time. Eventually we got up and headed to breakfast. We were greeted by amazing watermelon carvings. As we were leaving breakfast they were setting up for brunch.
Noon Location: (docked in Puntarenas) N 9º 58′ 12.97″, W 084º 49′ 48.96″ As I was walking the deck this morning I was thinking about ‘things’ and remembered something significant about one of yesterday’s lectures. The talk was “the man who walked into the jungle – the story of the Costa Rica Railway” and it
Noontime Location Check: N 07º 08′ 23.99″ – W 082º 09′ 47.98″ The day started out joining a few other hardy sailors on a leisurely stroll around the quarter-mile promenade deck. 16 laps later I was ready for room service breakfast on our veranda as we watched the endless pacific pass by below. The first
The map images are a bit before noon as we wanted to be up on the observation deck at actual noon. Actual Noontime Location Check: N 09º 02′ 40.17″ – W 079º 38′ 53.24″ Up and out the door by 5:45 – early enough to watch our passage under the Atlantic Bridge – the northern
Location Check: N 09º 21′ 44.74″ – W 079º 53′ 33.22″ We also noticed a sight unique to Panama. We cut exercise short and had a quick breakfast because timing today is interesting. Then it was back to the stateroom to prepare for the day, read the paper, deal with email and Cruise Critic before
We woke up this morning, not rocking and rolling. Strange. We docked sometime around 6:00. We celebrated our calm state by: Cheryl – on the treadmill, Randy – on the quarter-mile promenade deck. Then it was time to cool down (it’s 80º but with a bright sun, humidity, and no breeze), shower, breakfast on the
Noontime Location Check: N 13º 17′ 04.30″ – W 078º 40′ 50.93″ Up on time this morning and down to the gym. It’s confession time. I have frequently maintained that “nothing of musical significance happened in the 80’s.” I am using an 80’s dance mix as my treadmill music and have come to appreciate the
Noontime location check: N 17º 19′ W 83º 23′ The morning started with a bit of a lie-in. It was a combination of recovering from last night’s celebrations (Thanks Jerry for sharing your excellent Champagne), a bit of a Christmas cheer, and the fact that the ship was really rockin’ and arollin’.
