CHRISTMAS MORNING 2024, on the Ship, GUAYAQUIL, ECUADOR

I was the photographer for all the Residents participating in REINDEER GAMES on Christmas Morning. I couldn't participate because we were leaving to go on our excursion. The games was the brain child of Eddie, arms spread wide here - one of my favorite neighbors! The rules required you to show up to breakfast in your Christmas PJ's and have your toes painted red and green! Below, I got to say a quick Merry Christmas & farewell (for 3 days) to my favorite Family the Little -Olson's - Doug, Lucia, Alionia & Whitney!


Somedays are just meant to be beach days, to chill with a friend! First, I did an uber run to nearby Costco in the town of Lihue, where I bought us Tommy Bahama backpack beach chairs! Then we were good to go. Kalapaki beach was just a quick 15 minute walk from the Ship. I realized I did the same thing with my Cousin Cathy , back in 2020, when I was here on my first cruise to Hawaii! Today, I spent the afternoon chilling with good buddy Sherrie Cornett.
