We choose port side cabins because we enjoy watching the all the activity…today…not so much…

No containers being transported…just a dreary parking lot and passengers being transported away from the dock and whisked off to beautiful beaches.



Breakfast in our room…lunch in Marketplace…

Timmy made his own egg salad sandwich …adding bell peppers from the salad bar.

We popped down to the Bistro for iced cappuccinos and were happy to spend a few minutes chatting with Jay and Fermin…

…then I made my way with my cappuccino to the aft of deck 10 and spent a peaceful afternoon enjoying the starboard views.





Crystal used to allow smoking on the aft decks…so glad they now restrict smoking to just the port side.



One last pic before I returned to our cabin

Sailaway…







That’s the airport…


Eighteen miles off Venezuela, chasing sunsets—not fish. Hoping everyone out here knows the difference.


Some nights you just want to be casual…



Spicy cheese bread…perfick with porcini and garlic butter

The cheese menu changes every evening.

Deniz with some crackers.


We ended the night in the Galaxy Lounge where we caught “Remembering Whitney”, a polished and heartfelt tribute that clearly showcased vocalist Stephany Parker’s talent, even if the act itself wasn’t quite our cup of tea.
We continue to enjoy our time on this beautiful ship. Thanks for following along. 🩵🩵
