First photo of the morning…portside neighbors…there was a Virgin ship starboard …




So the usual routine…breakfast and puzzles on the balcony, lunch in Marketplace, followed by iced cappuccinos in the Bistro…the new cups are insulated and keep the coffee cold for a looong time.

Check out the spoons…cool.

As I headed out for a walk around San Juan, I snapped a few few pics in the lobby.



I walked along the waterfront to an adorable little park…all beautifully decorated for the holiday

Jardin de la Princessa



The shade was most welcome, as the temperature was mid 80s with 77 % humidity.







I made my way into town, bought a pair of sneakers and eventually found my way back to the port.




…did some laundry …

…walked on the treadmill for a bit…the Virgin ship filled the window


Moscow Mule and Mezcal Old Fashioned

Crunchy greens

Appetizer size pasta

Tim’s grilled pork chop.

Swordfish salad


Although very well attended, with lots of folks dancing – this White Party didn’t seem to have the energy and vibrant atmosphere that we experienced on our Symphony cruises this year…nevertheless we enjoyed ourselves.



Another super day …we know how lucky we are to be traveling to these warm ports and I’m grateful every day. Thanks for following along 🩵🩵🩵
