Sunrise I mostly saw the sun rise because we were at dinner during sunset, which happens early in December. Since I’m … Read more

After a day at sea on our Caribbean cruise, we made for the port of Falmouth, Jamaica on RCCL’s Adventure of the Seas. I’d attended the Port Talk on the ship, which was a waste of time.

This island has lots of attractions but Ann and … Read more
