... selling English weekly paper. I recently had an article published in the paper on the Zapatista camp I visited, and will hopefully be writing more pieces for them in the future. The good people in the office had kindly invited me to the staff Thanksgiving dinner.

... from their party the night before to the great buy they’d just gotten on jewelry. Other shoppers, including a tour group from the ship, vie for sidewalk space.

The first shop Michael goes into the jerseys are 120 pesos, the second 195 but he would sell it to him for 130. It is too baggy and we head off. We wander into a market ally, no shirt to be had just yet. Then he spies a green and white affair up high on the wall, shirts I had not ...

Finally, the reward for living through all of the storm. A beautiful morning - and finally feeling better.

Got off the Ship briefly before we left (total of 20 minutes) to take a few pictures.

Back onboard by 1pm.

... sé, nunca he estado en Cuba pero me da la impresión de que es el tipo de lugar que venden como muy auténtico y en realidad no lo es; como los restaurantes mexicanos en Texas... Hasta eso me aliviané porque creo que ligué con un chavo del grupo, me encantó, me estaba haciendo ojitos, me emocioné, le dejé mi correo escrito en una servilleta, me escribió!! Llegué al Hotel así o más caliente??!!

... who live there and recommended a good beach-front hotel, where I sat on the patio watching the sun descend into the sea - typing. We stowed our gear and headed for the old part of town, starting with the cathedral. It was very large and quite impressive in an odd mixed way. The façade and towers were plastered and decorated in European style; the walls of the structure were concrete blocks with the mortar showing. A Saturday wedding was being celebrated ...

... vegetables and the Osobucco for our entrees. We were so stuffed that desert was not an option. The restaurant actually brought out a sampler of desert on the house. That was more that enough to satisfy our taste buds. After dinner, we splurged on a taxi to get us back to 'Nilla. The whopping $3 including tip was a small price to pay for a wonderful evening on the town. We were both a bit tipsy as well and thought the taxi would be the safest bet.

... out for surf lessons by the one and only top ranked long boarding champion of Mexico...'s girlfriend. Nikki, a nice German lady who had just learned to surf a couple of years ago took us out for lessons because her boyfriend was out at a surfing competition. The waves right out front were a little big for beginners like us, so she took us out to a secret spot that actually has a write up in our travel books. We learned to surf on the world's longest wave which breaks for over a mile ...
