    OK! We are left to ponder the mysterious task, but know the crew uniform uniformly. Thanks for your reports. We’re tailing you! Bon voyage!

    With no experience on cruise ships all this information is welcome.
    Especially all those marvelous avian creatures swooping past your balcony trigger us.
    Ahoi!

    Absolutely marvelous! Dankeschön for taking us on yet another one of your happy adventures. Now, I have a question, too. Does each dining room come with its own music theme playing in the background matching the individual signature china pattern?

    Yikes Louis and Doris. Two years ago the Guayaquil prison riot was the worst in modern history. More than 100 killed. Heads were being chopped off. No shore tours of that place! We were there a year before the riot and had nothing to do with causing it. We swear. Bob Hurst

    Love your blog! Was there a ceremony when you crossed the equator? Dave’s granddaughter, who is a junior at Point Loma is doing a semester in Quito Ecuador! She’s been there 3 weeks now and looks like she’s having a great time. We have 70 pictures from her so far.
    We love cruising and have thought about an extended one… so we love following your adventure! Love, Candy and Dave

    Wondering if placed on a spreadsheet who would tip the scale as to who has met more intriguing persons… Doris or her beloved? Who has been the most unusual conversation to date ? What has been the funniest interaction so far?

    Love your humourous (witty) writings. Reminds me of a great Mark Twain book: INNOCENTS ABROAD.

    Chaise is a French word, of course, and chaise longue means long chair. I always feel annoyed that North-Americans would borrow an expression that they don’t grasp and turn it into a non-sensical chaise “lounge”. This has been around for over a century, I suppose, and I wouldn’t blame you for it. The fact that someone would “lounge” in it certainly adds to the confusion…

    Wonderful details! I feel like I’m there. I will be there, sort of, on another product of common ownership, the Norwegian Sun. We will be cruising out of Lisbon on Sunday for 11 days in the Canary Islands, Southern Spain and Gibraltar.
