2012 - STAR PRINCESS - VALPARAISO & SANTIAGO


View 2012 PRINCESS = RIO TO SAN FRANCISCO on hasbeen's travel map.

THIS IS MOSTLY A LONG BUS TOUR WITH NOT A LOT OF TIME OFF THE BUS.

BUT - FIRST, IT'S BREAKFAST WITH THE YOUNG LADIES ON BOARD

LIZ FROM PERU

- SHE GETS TO VISIT HER HOME COUNTRY SOON, MUST BE GETTING EXCITED.

AND

FABIOLA FROM MEXICO

THEIR AREA WAS THE CAFE IN THE ATRIUM, ABOUT A DECK ABOVE THE WATER LINE. NOT TOO FREQUENTED FOR BREAKFAST WHICH WAS GREAT & A NICE VIEW OUT THE WINDOWS AS WE ENTERED A PORT.

Ooops - THIS GUY IS ON EASTER ISLAND. MUST HAVE TAKEN A WRONG TURNING ALONG THE WAY.

I ONCE GAVE A COPY OF ONE OF THESE TO A FRIEND AS A BIRTHDAY PRESENT. THE HAT IS A BIRD BATH.

YOU CAN JUST MAKE OUT THE BACKS OF A COUPLE OF LADIES IN TRADITIONAL DRESS. I DID NOT SEE TOO MUCH OF THAT.

THIS MIGHT BE MORE TRADITIONAL THESE DAYS...

I CANNOT SEE IF IT IS AN ADVERT OR GRAFFITI OR WHAT. SHE IS ON THE WALL BEHIND A RIVER OR CANAL.
