    One reason we chose Whalewatching Cabos is that they offer free photos of our Whale Watching excursion. I wasn't expecting much but was blown away by the skill of a professional photographer. While an iPhone does a decent job there is no comparison to a SLR with a big telephoto lens.

    I forgot - last night we went to Murano. Incredible dinner as usual. I had the lobster and was prepared perfectly.

    After a 30 minute rest to rehydrate (was about 78) we decided to Uber back to the port. Total cost including 20% tip (really good driver and gave us a bit of a tour in way back). $11.00

    Off In the distance you can see where the port is.

    After about a mile we came to the beginning of the promenade. The area is renowned for all the sculptures.

    Most of the way is very boating with resort after resort blocking any view of the ocean. Lots of little things caught my eye. I’m usually playing catch up as I dwaddle along the way shooting pictures.

    Our final port. Puerto Vallarta We got up and had our regular continental breakfast in Michael’s Club. We decided to walk from the ship to Los Muertos Pier. The pier is about 4.5 miles away. Most of the walk was along Puerto Vallarta Tepic , the major road through the city.

    That is the perfect B2B cruise. I hope they get the infrastructure issue solved in Reykjavik. Because of the lack of buses and taxi's most all of the B2B didn't even get off the ship there. Would really have loved to have seen the beautiful city.

    That's great to hear. I did end up booking a cruise myself while aboard. Once they released the European Sailings I booked the Lisbon to Rio and Buenos Aires in November 2024. We had originally had this one booked pre-Covid but was cancelled. I'm sure you will love the Greenland/Iceland cruise. It's really an incredible journey.

    I went out on the Crystal Bridge. Great views. Iain hates heights so stayed Behind.

    The last stretch. Really steep. Told Iain this was the monument to those that didn’t make it.

    We went ashore today to visit Parque Natural Faro Mazatlan. May have to post later. The internet has been remarkable but suddenly went to virtually nothing. The park is about one mile from the ship. The lighthouse at the top is 500 meters (1,600 feet) above sea level.

    We also had a Bridge - Natural Bridges National Park in Santa Cruz Originally it had 3 bridges But due to storms there is just one now It's fame to claim is that it is a migratory breeding grown of the Monarch Butterfly. During the winter at night they clump together to keep warm

    We wee just saying today that we would definitely do the trip again. I do have to say Cabos does remind me of the Rivera

    Not good. Tuesday are garbage days at home and have a similar wake-up call.
