AND THEN IT HAPPENED....

If you haven't read the previous Blog Post then read that one first and then this one...



We get 800 miles out into the ocean heading to Cabo San Lucas..and the captain gets on the loud speaker and says ..."due to the severity of Hurricane Rick, now a category 5, we will have to turn the ship around. Sorry for this inconvenience." Where I was sitting I could hear a collective groan. The new ports of call would be San Fransico, Catalina Island, Ensenada, and San Diago. Some of the Californians who lived in San Fransico and San Diago and said, "Why would I want to go back home?" Others called their daughters and told them to meet them on the pier with the grandchildren for lunch. Others were so disappointed that they left the ship at the next port of call. Gabrielle and I weathered the storm and had a good time. I hadn't been to San Fran in years and even though we both had seen Catalina and Ensenada last May with our families, we would find something new to do....MEANWHILE...We enjoyed the Food on the ship...
