As of this posting we have covered 4,027 nautical miles, sea
depth currently is 17,030 feet and we continue to cruise at 17.5 knots.
Tomorrow we are due to arrive at Funchal, Portugal our
second port around 7 am. Hopefully tomorrow’s blog will be filled with interesting
tidbits after I take my excursion of spots around Madeira and sample the
delicious wines. Madeira looks like an
interesting city and area.
The on-board casino, which has been under construction since
we left Galveston, had its grand opening night before last. I made a quick
visit that night and accepted the complimentary glass of champagne while I
cruised through. I am curious if I have any better luck at sea than I have in
Las Vegas. UPDATE: I don’t.
I've never understood the urge to gamble. I hope you didn't lose much. So, is that your cruise pal, Annie? You look like a happy twosome. Good to hear you've reached Madeira. I'd never heard about its vertical structure before. Take care.
