While this is another sea day, we continue our trip up the Pacific coast of Central America. We are moving from Ecuador yesterday to Costa Rica tomorrow (this has been on our bucket list) and El Salvador after that. We are then scheduled to have three stops in Mexico, but with the current turmoil in that country we have not heard that any decision has been made regarding these ports. I have not wanted to check the State Department recommendations. I am sure we will be getting notified regarding the Mexico plans in the next day or two.
During the night we again sailed across the Equator so there is another ceremony for those doing this crossing for the first time at 11:00 am today. With the most recent time change I got up at 6:00 am and already missed seeing the sunrise.
Had an informative lecture about Grapes & Dogs, They Are Not All The Same. It was an analogy for understanding wine through looking at the differences of grapes and how this can be compared to different breeds of dogs. I guess I had not ever looked at wines this way.
At lunch we met a couple from Waukee Iowa that we had heard were on the ship, but we had not met them previously. Dinner was at the French restaurant “Jacques” which as usual was outstanding. The after dinner entertainment was DIVAS3 for their second performance.
Tomorrow is Costa Rica! As I mentioned above this has been one of our bucket destinations, and we are scheduled for a sanctuary tour to see the local flora and fauna.
