Had a good time at the ice show last night, a little cold, but that’s to be expected, LOL. Some of the skating was a amazing.
Spent today in Labadee, Haiti, which is a Royal Caribbean only port. Apparently they used to have 5 year leases to it, but now it’s a 99 year lease. I did a coastal cruise, lol, another boat! This time though a catamaran with an interesting guide. There are a lot of hilly/mountainous areas in Haiti, and this part is basically mountains all the way down to the sea. Very green though, apparently it’s rained for the last 2 days, but fined up for us!! Since the bad earthquake a few years ago the unemployment rate is 80%. The main diet consists of rice and beans all of which are imported from Miami. The waters around the island is constantly fished and everything edible is eaten. We had some fishermen come and show us crabs, fish and lobsters they had caught, thinking we could buy them for lunch, lol. All quite small as nothing gets much chance of growing. Also saw a stingray leaping in the distance and pipefish and hermit crabs in the waters near the pier.
Have a reservation for the aqua show this evening, should be good. Last nights late performance was cancelled because of the boat rocking, I must have slept through it! lol.
