Today we are going ashore in Puerto Vallarta - tequila tasting and (hopefully) to enjoy some little "grubby handmade tortillas" (Beth's idea...something they enjoyed on their cruise here last year...though they may have been getting sick at the time which may have affected tastebuds and overall enjoyment. We'll see!)
Beth and Matt are proving to be worth their weight in...trinkets. Our team has added a lovely Sapphire Princess pen to our collection (though why the pen is actually ruby in color has us all stumped). To date only one question has been sports related so it is sometimes difficult to keep the guys' attention (particularly Gerry's but he always brings a book).
Although we celebrated Beth's birthday last night with steak dinners, the high point of the day at sea occurred during our morning constitutional around the deck. It was a sunny day (our first real view of the sun and warmth of the Mexican Riviera) and Gerry was whining that he should have brought his binoculars with him on our walk when all os a sudden he saw a whale off our port side. We watched for several minutes to see the spout of water, like a puff of smoke, and then the whale's tale appear a couple of times and then make its final dive. Naturally I couldn't get pictures fast enough. Maybe we'll have better opportunity in Cabo.~later, tw
