Update from Manta Wednesday March 6, 2013


WEDNESDAY MARCH 6, 2013 – MANTA AND CROSSING THE EQUATOR NORTHBOUND.

A full and more detailed report will be posted later.

Had a good private tour of the region today and this evening after leaving Manta, Ecuador we have re-crossed the Equator – this time northbound - on board the official ceremony will be held tomorrow morning and havin talked to the last Neptune he advises me that someone else will play the role this time and that the script is different.

It is hard to believe that in less than ten days this epic journey will be over – I only have three more ports to visit – Puntarenas, Costa Rica on Friday and San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua on Saturday and then next Wednesday – Cabo San Lucas.

I have a private toured booked in Puntarenas and a ship's one in San Juan – the latter is a tender port and it has been noted that there is only room for one tender boat to dock at a time and that it has taken Princess on a previous visit upwards of 4 hours to get all their tours ashore – needless to say those doing private tours weren't too happy – whether that will occur again on this tour remains to be scene.

I have nothing booked in Cabo – another tender port – having been there as recently as Oct 2011 and with at least three other visits I won't be doing much if anything there.

Cheers
