OK, this post is really late since it’s the 30th,
but I really needed a break. We both came home with colds and then there is the
“post cruise funk”. UGH!
We had an 8:20 time to disembark and after we found
our luggage, Greg left me with them and grabbed the shuttle to the car rental
place. After he returned with the rental car, we got it all packed in and
headed North to Port St. Lucie to the same hotel we stayed in pre-cruise. (Residence
Inn by Marriott).
We had a couple of hours to kill before we could check
in, so we ran a few errands and had a long lunch.
We have a corner unit which gives us a bit more room
to spread out, which came in handy to unpack our luggage. Once we sorted out
what needed to go directly to storage we went there and then there were the
piles of laundry to do.
We will have a busy few days getting everything
organized and rearranging the storage unit.
Then, we begin the search for a car to drive/tow and
the RV to start our next adventure.
Of course, I have a 60 day South America cruise to
plan excursions for. Rio Carnival tickets are the first thing to get done. I
think we have narrowed down the sector to sit in, just need to purchase them.
Working on private tours for our 3 days there as well.
We also will need to work on losing the weight we put
on from this cruise. Neither of us gained as much as we did on the WC in 2013.
(the food just wasn’t as good) Last time I put on 20#, this time only 11#.
Still will take some time to get it off.
Having fast, free and good internet again is great! Calls
to family was the first thing to do. I have uploaded a couple more ports to the
web albums and will continue to plug along at them until I’m finished.
It seems weird not to run into ship people we know;
everywhere we go I keep looking at people thinking I should know them. Already
missing lots of people!
In another post, I will do a recap of this World
Cruise, since we don’t do “favorites”. Thanks again to everyone that followed
along and sorry photos were just too cumbersome to do with the slow internet on
the ship.
From Venice to Ft. Lauderdale
we traveled 5,705 Nautical Miles. It would have been nice if the Patter listed the total Nautical Miles of the entire World Cruise, but they didn't. (yes, I can add them all up myself....)
