SEA DAY - FUN DAYS!!

Great perspective shot of our Ship compared to the big ones out here! We are at roughly 175 residents now and 100 more joining in a few weeks. With roughly 200 crew. This MSC ship had 5500 passengers and 2500 crew members! We love our little piece of heaven!


The Caribbean has been nonstop port days, and I have been going full throttle, so was very excited to have a Sea Day after Tortola on our way to Dominican Republic. We have so much fun doing the simplest of things. First always I played lots of pickleball. Second got a pedicure. Next decorated my room for Christmas! Caught up on the blog and paperwork. And new one - worked in some yoga! Oh my!

Got to love a place that sells shirts saying " Where the heck is Yap? " Colonia ( population 3,100 ) is the Capital and Harbor town of Yap State ( population 11,600 ) one of four states in the Federated States of Micronesia. We are in the Pacific Ocean or Philippine Sea just north of the equator, Papua New Guinea and Australia.
