What can I say about today? We enjoyed a one hour breakfast in the dining room, followed by at least a one hour hot tub soak, a little sun time, showers, and then a leisurely lunch, also in the dining room. We really enjoy our dining room meals, just us, window side, with a view of the sea and the (sometimes) islands we're passing. Today we sailed between Puerto Rico and Hispaniola, and were within sight of land quite a bit. We did enter the open ocean late morning, and were warned by the captain that it would become instantly choppy, and it did. We're still experiencing that, but have been told it will calm down overnight.
This has been a windy, frequently rough month at sea. I said today that I could not imagine traveling this in a small sailboat. Not only would our meals not be served to us, but it would often be too rough to even prepare them for ourselves. We've been told that sailing is glorified camping, but I think camping might be a bit easier.
