    Waking up to a new port is one of the best things about cruising. Not a bad breakfast view.
    Island weather is always perfect (even if a little glarey)Our first of many quick beach stops including a nudie beach!Juliana - we got the feeling that she would get on well with OmaThe island's Dutch side is apparently home to all the CasanovasWhich is a big achievement for the Dutch considering that the competition is FrenchApparently they make good soup!The famous Maho Beach. Super crowded, but worth experiencing from a safe distance.A few seconds earlier: all the tourists running upon hearing an arrivalDoesn't really capture how low the plane is. 2 people died here a few years ago from the jetwash.Our final quiet beach where we all jumped in for an amazing swim (not the nudie one)Meanwhile back onboard my medal collection finally commenced with a bronze in the ping-pong.I'm trying to stick to healthy-ish options to maintain my dominance over 10 yr olds and pensioners.Some of the shows have been surprisingly good1Whereas others left me wondering why a camp iceskating Hydrogen was trying to bond with a shy Sodium1The only duck I've found this cruise was in my cabin

    I'll cram 2 sea days in with our first port day rather than inundate the penguin with 50 food photos.

    So... Our first port: the complicated tiny island containing the French Saint Martin and the Dutch Sint Maarten. A bizarre gentlemen's agreement between the settlers left the island with 2 of every system. 2 police forces, 2 taxation systems, 2 health care systems... It seems so inefficient. At least it is peaceful. Actually, they label themselves as "the most friendly Caribbean island". We only came across lovely people so maybe they are right! We took a guided minivan tour with the Nobles which was just the right length to keep everyone happy. Some good sights, a bit of history, a cool drink and a dip in the ocean... and we also checked out Maho Beach briefly to see the planes fly over.Okumaya devam et
