- St Juan
haing some problems setting this up so plse bear with me!!

Embarktion Sunday at 1pm was good - they really 'throw' people at the process and I would
say it pays off - quite simple and quick -- we are in cabin 543 ....have a window looking -- out
to sea!!!
Started off with lunch and then waiting to deprt Tampa - beautiful evening.

Monday was a day 'at sea' got around the ship/dinner in the open sitting in the dining room...service good but slow (that will not change) choices good -
Aqua aerobics at 9 - with a slight swell - interesting!!
History lecture for our first two ports of call....also a 'how to shop' presentation. Apparently this
is where you come to buy gems, diamonds, tanzanite etc - who knew?

Tuesday - at the private Island of Holland-America - beautiful, lovely day. Lunch was BBQ
outside, water beautiful colour but cool......left about 4pm.

Wednesday - another day at sea the big news being we have some Norwalk cases on board-
every turn we make there's Purell - why didn't we buy shares!! Food service has changed - no self-serve allowed and Purell stations everywhere.....keep your fingers crossed for us.
Note- on the buffet there are always 2 'no sugar' dessert - Im enjoying today was tiramisu mousse
yum!

Thursday (31) at noon we arrive in St Juan PR -- beautiful day - hot - take a free trolley ride through
the main part of the city.....shopping is terrible ugly tourist 'stuff'' - stopped at a Starbucks for the free wifi (75cents a minute on board) and a great latte!! The coffee on board is not to my taste --
Reminds us of a 'clean' Cuba!!
We are both well - for the moment....
