As you probably know from the e-mails, I was slowed down by a pulled muscle in my back. Our visits in Spain were very close to “home.” In Cartagena we docked with the MS Neuw Amsterdam; the newest ship in the Holland America fleet. We took some time to tour the ship. The Captain and officers lined up to welcome us aboard. The Neuw Amsterdam carries about a thousand more passengers than we do. I’m showing you this so you can see there is no handshaking. This is a precaution against the spread of germs and sickness around the ship.
We did a chance to show we were here.
A view of the port from our veranda.
We were again docked near the naval base.
One shot of downtown and I’m back to laying down.
Our next stop was Cartagena. I managed ot get out of bed to check our ambulance count. Only one. And that was the only picture we got here. I wasn’t moving around at all.
On to Portugal.
If you wrote how you pulled a back muscle, I missed reading it. Am so sorry about it. If it had to happen, glad it was toward the end of the trip. Welcome home. It will be great to see you.
