PARITY, BRAZIL - Day 2 

Today we spent on the water. We had signed up for a beach and snorkel trip yesterday and had to move to today because we had tender issues into the port and missed the start time. Today was also looking bleak but the charter waited for us and even sent their tender over to our delayed shuttle and rescued us off so we could join the group waiting for us! It was a fun day, swimming and snorkeling over 4 different beach locations. The water, drinks and sunshine were all great fun! 

We had time to do some shopping for Carnival sparkle outfits after in the colonial town center.

Sadly our tender issues surfaced again when we went to rejoin our Ship at 5:30. The tender was having engine problems and we had to hire a  party boat to get us back to the ship. Always an adventure!  There was 37 of us, happy to finally make it back on board our Ship and we were extremely grateful for the female crew, who took kindness on us and got us back safe and happy!

Today we were Cave explorers! We went to the one of UNESCO newly classified 7 NEW WONDERS OF NATURE - The Puerto Princesa Underground River.

September 30th marks the one year anniversary of when this great adventure for me actually started - when the ship sailed out of Belfast Boatyard.

Any day on a boat for sun and fun is a great day! Today it was a group of 17 for a tour of Honda Bay - we had 3 stops to snorkel, swim and relax. Thanks Holly for arranging it all!!
