What a disappointment that for the first time on this long voyage we had rain all day. In fact the only thing that made it better for us was learning that it hasn’t really stopped raining there for three weeks!
We did venture out, just after breakfast, and immediately found the pavements etc were flooded. Despite having waterproof jackets on below that trousers/jeans were soaked in minutes, so after 45 minutes we decided to call it a day.
A quick trip to the launderette on board found us in a queue of people trying to get trousers and jackets into tumble driers before they were going out again!
So, not many photographs I’m afraid. The first one shows the view from our balcony and you can just make out the bridge in the distance. The other two were taken on our departure at 1800 when yes, you can guess, the sun shone briefly. Alcatraz is the second photo and finally the bridge, as we sailed beneath.
Time is simply flying by now and our next stop will be Acapulco. The temperature in San Francisco was 8c but we understand it will be around 30c in Acapulco. That’s more like it!
