Getting to the Grand World Voyage
Our 15 day cruise through the canal was very relaxing. This cruise is a great way to get into the mood for the GWV. I shopped in Guatemala for textiles and had a nice lunch with Scott and Karen Bonis. We are a great trivia team and love shopping. I rode the ski doos in Half Moon Cay. The ride was exciting because bad weather was coming in and the waves were higher than usual. Most folks cancelled the ride so only 3 of us were brave enough to go on out. Our guide gave us some thrills as we did lots of zig zags and wave jumping. The tender ride back to the Amsterdam was rocking and rolling. That night as we approached Ft. Lauderdale we rocked and rolled as we hit the storms that are approaching the east coast. It is very cold right now in Ft. Lauderdale as we prepare to pass through US Customs. I cancelled my tee time in Ft. Lauderdale due to frost delays. Never thought about that prior to booking. My next tee time is Grand Cayman. Leon and I are watching the seven seasons of Game of Thrones before dinner. Doing a binge watching of this series is the only way for me to follow the story line and characters. We have read several books, download many more. Love reading on the ship.
