I bought it thinking it was all about the Panama Canal.

It is really an excellent summary of every Caribbean and Mexican Rivera Cruise Port with a few pages on the Canal.

The Windjammer Staff set up a really nice BBQ on the Pool Deck today. This was the second one this cruise. Excellent!

So sorry to hear that Trainman. We usually eat in the MDR on our cruises and have never experienced anything like that. Very sad. I do agree, though. Spreading cold butter on cold, stiff toast does not work very well :-)

Sorry to post this in same reply, but just wanted to say, Trainman-2, just once more, how much I've enjoyed seeing all your posts! So very kind of you to take the time to do all this! Hope you continue to have a good time! Hope your weather is better, on your trip back!

[B][I][COLOR="Red"]OMG, I actually see someone, in this picture, that I recognize! There's GIL, with his back to us! The TALLEST in the picture, with the tropical shirt he's famous for wearing! Tell Gil & Gail, I said "hi". Looking forward to cruising with them, in January!!

Trainman,
You are the best. I will catch up after my Allure cruise leaving on Sunday. Alas it is only seven days. Wow 28 days.Someday maybe.

[quote name='Trainman-2']We have had a lot of early morning rain on this cruise. Usually before sunup and over by first light.

But by 9 - 10 am it is always sunny and dry.
[/QUOTE]

"Early morning" to the retired is middle of the night to us working folk ;)

my last cruise - the retiree's in the family had 2 breakfasts in before we'd all meet up in the WJ for the official breakfast... They had pre-breakfast in the Cafe Promenade, breakfast in the WJ followed by the official breakfast ;). They always say they're getting more for their $$ than us 'kids' do... LOL

The good news about turnaround day arriving is that we still get more Trainman postings for another 14 days! Loving the trip and looking forward to the second half of your b2b!
