We are through the canal and once again stopping in Cartagena. I don’t particularly see a need to leave to port. I wandered to wander the bird sanctuary, but the flamingos were demonstrating what they thought of the hordes of tourists. The peacocks were up in the tress or behind the flamingos. The parrots were out in fine voice. I tolerated the hordes for about 10 minutes and gave up. It was way too peopley out there with a second ship in port.

Just in case I hadn’t shown it before – this is the NCL Joy.
