Leaving Miami
January 20, 2020 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 23 °F
Finding our way around ship and watching the ship pull away while the sun sets on Miami. Rough waters through dinner and into evening - hard to walk a straight line. Had dinner with a nice couple from Maryland whose son is a junior at the Navel academy. Another lady joined us also from Michigan. Watched a Variety Show in the theater to end our evening. We had to stay inside ship because of the rough seas.Read more

Enjoying the sun!
January 21, 2020 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 27 °F
Sun and beautiful clear water!!
Bar on the beach built around a tree that the hurricane didn't destroy.

, While waiting for a taxi we met David, a young man from MI that was traveling alone. He joined our taxi ride to and from Pirate Cove beach. A memorable taxi ride to and from ship!

The destruction from the hurricane last Sept 2019 was devastating. We spoke with an islander who praised the Lord that she and her family made it through. The ocean came in and covered most of the island. People were neck deep in the water.

She praised the US for all of their help. They were here immediately going door to door to check on people and handed out food. There are people still missing.

You rule over the seas; when it's waves mount , you still them. Psalm 89:9.

Dinner was spent with a nice couple from MN... and David. Lots of fun and laughter at dinner. Two desserts "each" were had by all!!! The evening was closed out by a show with Motown songs and dancers.Read more

Great Stirrup Cay

Grand Stirrup Cay/CANCELLED

High winds (60 mph).... 10 Ft waves were the cause of this port being cancelled.

Rough seas to calmer sea gave us a chance to wonder the ship and play board games with Darrell and Bonnie.

We enjoyed dinner with our friend David (We joked about him being our adopted grandson!) And met sisters -- Judy from Miami and Valerie from CA. After dinner we relaxed to piano and guitar music in different bars.Read more

Around Nassau

We hired a local taxi driver for another interesting taxi ride.... we were shown the contrast from slums where water is gotten from a faucet on a post for islanders to get water to carry to their homes to the mansions of the weallthy.

We climbed Queens Staircase, went to Fort Fincastle, a Rum cake factory and to the Atlantis.

Judy & Valerie found us for dinner again. Judy had lymphoma and was going thru chemo.

Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends leave footprints on your heart... Eleanor Roosevelt.Read more
