Greetings From Aruba

Lon · 11-27-2005, 08:15 AM

This past week has been a blast while sailing on the Windstar. Yesterday we did a dive at Bonaire in the Dutch Antilles, the day before we did a dive at Isla Margarita, off the Venezuelan coast. Today is Sunday and I am at an Internet Cafe in downtown Aruba. I have a head cold and am not diving today. The ship was to have wireless broadband but it's not operational yet. I have taken about 100 digital pictures so far and after culling will probably wind up with 20 decent shots. We leave this afternoon for the Panama Canal and will finish this cruise in Costa Rica next Sunday. We then fly to Los Angeles, spend one night resting up, and then off to New Zealand until May.
