    At sea

    2015年1月6日, North Pacific Ocean ⋅ 🌙 66 °F

    We are having our long stretch of time at sea. It is 7 days that we have all been looking forward to since we booked this cruise. Once we left LA and celebrated Jeff's 60th birthday (you'll hear about that from him), we have settled into a nice, but busy routine. We are all committed to 2-3 hours of fitness each morning in hopes of still being able to wear our clothes throughout the trip.
    There are many interesting lectures each day. There is a travel/historian that speaks about each of our upcoming ports and we have recently been joined by a wine expert who lectures while we are drinking particular wines! There is an artist on board giving classes and next week several of us will be joining one of the chefs going to the market in Tahiti.
    We are all doing a lot of reading and Jeff will be fluent in Swahili by the time we get home.
    The Pacific Ocean is very peaceful and we are loving the tranqility. The 4 of us witnessed the elusive green flash at sunset yesterday in honor of Jeff's birthday.
    A few notes from me about Jeff's 60th. Since the actual start of the World Cruise was in Los Angeles, I had asked Trish and Don if they could possibly meet us there as a surprise for Jeff. I can attest that he certainly was surprised to see them once we got off the ship. Jim had kept in touch with them as we were waiting for the ship to clear. We had a great visit. We saw a beautiful church that was all glass and then had a wonderful luncheon overlooking the Pacific Ocean. My gift to Jeff was a quilt that I had made. Months ago I had sent out plain squares with a pen for everyone that is special to Jeff to design/write on. I compiled them into a quilt and while Jeff was out of town, collected all my quilting ladies to get it quilted. He loved it.    もっと詳しく

    Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

    2015年1月2日, メキシコ ⋅ ☁️ 63 °F

    Uh-oh! I think we've gone too far north! It's cool here today-we've gotten used to warmer temperatures, but we still don't have any reason to complain.
    We went to a salsa and salsa event today. We made 7 different types of salsa and 2 different kinds of margheritas. Somehow I was chosen to "cook" in a salsa competition and the best part was that I got to wear a giant sombrero!
    Then we danced salsa! Uno, dos, tres - cuatro, cinco, seis! Too much fun!
    We are at sea the next 2 days before arriving in LA. Our first day at sea after LA will be Jeff's 60th birthday!    もっと詳しく

    At sea

    2015年1月1日, North Pacific Ocean ⋅ 🌧 68 °F

    Happy New Year! It was quite an event on tbe ship last night with 350 guests and 350 crew on the upper deck ringing in 2015! Nancy won a bottle of Dom Perignon so it was a great way to top off 2014.
    Disco bunny is enjoying her cruise and helped in the celebration.
    There was a spectacular New Year's Day Brunch and then recovering from all the celebrating.    もっと詳しく

    Tapachula, Chiapas, Mexico

    2015年1月1日, メキシコ ⋅ ⛅ 88 °F

    The 4 of us went anout 30 minutes by shuttle into the small city of Tapachula, Mexico. It was a vibrant city that exuded a nice energy. There was dancing, music and local foods. As we strolled through the city, we even encountered a covered, temporary ice-skating rink which was packed with locals. We felt it was a real taste of a Mexican city since we were some of the only non-mexicans around. Our bright-white legs were a real giveaway! It was about 90 degrees and we heard several people mention how delightfully cool it was. Yikes! Even though we love the food on the ship, we did step out here and
    had lunch at a small, local place that included a dish of mole.
    We shopped at the Zapateria for shoes and rode back to the ship in one of the most crowded vehicles I've ever been in. At one point I could see Nancy's head just about touching the windshield.
    The ship sailed in the late afternoon to traditional Mexican dancers at the dock.    もっと詳しく

    San Jose, Guatamala

    2015年1月1日, グアテマラ ⋅ ☀️ 90 °F

    A cultural experience awaited us here. Jeff and I walked into a nearby town and saw true underdeveloped, third-world lifestyle. It was an eye-opening appreciation of the lives that we are fortunate enough to live. We wandered into a town where we probably didn't belong.
    We also saw some of the beautiful handwork that is done here.    もっと詳しく

    Puntarenas, Costa Rica

    2014年12月27日, コスタリカ ⋅ ☀️ 86 °F

    A beautiful day in sunny and warm Costa Rica. We walked on suspension bridges in the canopy of the rain forest-amazing! We are docked in a fishing village and the warm breezes blowing through the fabrics of the stalls of the street vendors made for a pretty site.
    As the sun sets we are watching a tug that is waiting to lead us out of port.    もっと詳しく

    Cartagena, Colombia

    2014年12月24日, コロンビア ⋅ ☀️ 77 °F

    This morning we sailed into Cartagena, Colombia. Colombia conjures up many images for me including drug cartels and the places and activities we all saw in "Romancing the Stone". It was unexpected in that the people were friendly and the old town was rich with lovely architecture, fruit vendors and some of the most saturated paint colors I have ever seen.
    As you can see from the photos, there is an interesting juxtaposition of old and new. Jim and Nancy were anchored in their boat here 20 years ago at which time there were virtually no highrises.
    We keep reminding ourselves that it is Christmas Eve. We will be entertaining the Kleinschmidt's in our suite tonight with room service pizza and a movie-our schedule has been so busy, we need a quiet night while we wait for Santa. We have visions of emeralds dancing in our heads (we are in Colombia after all)! We will toast Christmas with a glass of Limoncello, because nothing says Christmas like Limoncello.    もっと詳しく

    Santa Marta, Colombia

    2014年12月23日, コロンビア ⋅ 🌬 104 °F

    This is our first stop out of North American waters. We had our first taste of rough seas all day yesterday-it was very dramatic. It's fun to see everyone staggering around the ship and we know it's not from alcohol!
    Santa Marta is the oldest city in Colombia. It is hot and very lively. There are lots of vehicles, most of them honking all at once!
    Jeff and I have never been to South America so this is uncharted territory for us. Jim and Nancy have been here before on their sailboat travels, but it won't be too long before we are all visiting places that the four of us have been talking about for the last year and a half!    もっと詳しく

    Key West, Florida

    2014年12月20日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 77 °F

    Key west is always fun to visit. We all had a bike ride around town before it "woke up" this morning. The sights, sounds and smells are always interesting! Last night we celebrated Nancy's birthday at La Dame restaurant on the ship. We were so excited, I'm not sure any of us even remembered what we ate! I'm sure that didn't have anything to do with the excessive amount of alcohol we consumed.もっと詳しく

    Fort Lauderdale, Florida

    2014年12月18日, アメリカ ⋅ 🌙 63 °F

    We will be boarding the Silver Whisper tomorrow to begin our 4 1/2 month journey around the world. Our friends Jane and Mike Beasley met us here and spent a few days with us before seeing us off.
    There are three pictures of our departure from Fort Lauderdale on the Silver Whisper. These are three of the most excited people in the world. The adventure awaiting us is unknown, but we know we will be creating memories to last a lifetime.    もっと詳しく
