It's great to be back on the Mariner, it feels like home! There's lots of familiar crew onboard--Captain Felice, Davor, Goren, Francesco (our favorite bartender who we haven't seen in years) and Seth, the waiter (now a head waiter) with the fabulous voice, plus lots of others. Terry Breen is here to keep us fascinated with South America, and better yet, we'll be celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary onboard. So far the internet is fast, the weather is good, and the food is great -- what more could you need? We've had two sea days and will reach land in Curacao tomorrow around noon--I'm looking forward to seeing the swinging bridge again.
