Thursday, Barbados
Very pleasant weather today with a nice breeze. Best to stay out of too much direct sun however, Barbados is the most southerly island on this cruise -- 13 degrees north of the equator.
The port in Bridgetown where we are parked is mostly industrial with container shipping facilities and sugar processing plants.
We never left the ship today. From what we can see it seems to be a dull little island although it is very popular with the Brits. Lots of direct flights from all the London airports.
I have read about great beaches for snorkeling and lots of tourist attractions but we loved having the ship to ourselves all day. Room service breakfast. Lunch at the Trident Grill for burgers and pizza by the pool. Dinner in the Michaelangelo Dining Room.
So far we have sailed 1,454 nautical miles. Later on I will post all the distances we've sailed from point to point.
Emerald Princess was the only cruise ship in port today.
