2012 PRINCESS = RIO TO SAN FRANCISCO
on hasbeen's travel map.
BAJA CALIFORNIA...
CABO SAN LUCAS & IT'S FAMOUS - LOS ARCOS..
GO TO THE BACK OF THE CLASS ALL OF YOU WHO THINK BAJA CALIFORNIA IS THE USA.
LAST TIME I WAS HERE, I WENT TO SEE THE HOTEL CALIFORNIA.
I NOW REALISE WHAT I SHOULD HAVE DONE.
I AM TAKING A ZODIAC RIDE IN SEARCH OF WHALES.
MY RECORD WITH THIS TYPE OF THING IS NOT GOOD..
LEAVING THE SHIP BEHIND
WE TENDER AWAY FROM THE SHIP
AND ZODIAC OVER FOR A CLOSE UP OF THE ARCH...
A BIT TOO CLOSE?
WE THE HEAD OF LOOKING FOR WHALES.
I GET THE NORMAL - " OH SENOR - YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE LAST WEEK, THERE WERE SO MANY WHALES ".
WHERE HAVE I HAVE HEARD THAT BEFORE...
BUT, AYE CARAMBA
- IS THAT A WHALE.
MAYBE -
TIME TO GO BACK.
THAT'S MY USUAL LUCK FOR THE DAY.
BUT - NO.., THERE ARE TWO WHALES !!!!
THE OTHER BOAT HAS SPOTTED IT TOO...
WHOA -
HOLD THE PHONE.
JUMPING JEHOSAFAT.....
JUST A WORD TO THE WISE NOW - IF YOU DO NOT LIKE WHALES, YOU CAN LEAVE THE PAGE NOW...
THAT WAS BEYOND EXCITING
ANY MORE TO COME?
AND FOR A SWAN SONG.....
TIME TO GO BACK TO SHORE.
THE DRIVER MUST HAVE BEEN IN A HURRY. THESE ZODIACS ARE NOT THE MOST COMFORTABLE OF BOATS. AND DID YOU KNOW THAT WATER IS MADE OF CONCRETE. THAT'S WHAT IT FEELS LIKE AS YOU CREST A WAVE AND SLAM DOWN AGAIN.
GREAT FUN.
MAYBE I WILL TRY THIS NEXT.. OR, MAYBE NOT
AND THAT'S IT FOR THE CRUISE.
A QUICK SAIL TO SAN FRANCISCO, STRAIGHT ON THE PLANE & HOME.
THAT'S THE PLAN ANYWAY
