Day 9 – Sea Day

Wow, the trip is half way done and I’m enjoying this format of sea and port days. With the other cruises I’ve done I usually need a vacation from my vacation as it’s a series of get up, go, eat, and repeat. With this day on, day off format I can tire myself out in a port and then relax and chill out the next day. Mentally this is the first vacation I’ve been on where I am actually relaxed. Yes, it’s a bummer there are not more single people or even married folks my age that I could spend some time with. If that’s my only complaint about the trip when I’ll measure this trip as a total success. Weather has been perfect. Highs in between 85 – 91, fairly high humidity but not enough to be uncomfortable, mostly sunny, overall very comfortable. It’s only rained for 30 minutes and that was at the end of the day in Columbia. Otherwise, Mother Nature is taking care of us nicely.
