Dateline at sea roughly as far north as Manzanillo, Mexico: Some sunshine Friday, not much Thursday, air temperature dropping out of the 80s into the high 70s, seas relatively calm. We are two days out of the "gritty waffle," more formally known as San Diego, where the cruise ends (for us).

Some pax will continue to Seattle where the ship will begin sailing the Alaska run, this run up the coast constituting a repo or repositioning cruise. We've had a nice time aboard.

We have substantial experience with four cruise lines: Princess, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, and Holland America. I can honestly say there are aspects of each I like. At this stage in our cruising experience, Holland has the most interesting itineraries. They do longer cruises and go to more interesting places.
