The ship seems to be running ok now (what do I know?) Toilets are flushing again and electricity is back except for cabin TVs. We were to be in Fortaleza, Brazil tomorrow but due to having to stop at 5:00am with engine troubles and losing time we will be skipping this port.

Everything else seems to be going well. I think someone posted that there is a lady with a small poodle on board (service dog that alerts her if she's going to have a seisure). I met her and the dog "Katie" The dog can sense this by smell. Usual happenings around the ship....lounging with a good book, poker, bingo, trivia, too much food and sambuca. We have a great entertainer on board right now that sings and plays piano (Brett Cave from London). He was excellent last night with lots of Elton John, Billy Joel, etc. He was so entertaining and lively !

Weather is hot and humid....tropical all the way back to FLL now.

Off to Compass Rose!
