Out of the Amazon, into the Atlantic

We are still in the Amazon, although the width of the river makes the shore invisible most of the time.  The warm, muddy, freshwater of the Amazon is detectable over 100 miles out to sea! Later in the day, we turned north into the blue Atlantic.

We had an excellent turnout for our Devil’s Island program. It has been shown on the ship’s television network all afternoon.

Today was our first formal night on this cruise. Donna dressed up in her purple and black cocktail dress and John wore his wool three-piece suit.  Everyone on board the ship looked so good.  We were proud to be part the cruise at dinner, and at the Captain’s Reception. Afterward, we attended the evening’s show and went dancing until late at night in the Pacific Lounge.
