La Vie en Cruise I - Panoramic View of San Juan, Puerto Rico, United States, from our room veranda, 2019. A few weeks ago we set out on a cruise, a reverse Columbus in an eastward crossing of the Atlantic from Puerto Rico to Spain. It was a surreal and in many ways absurd experience. Why take over a week to accomplish what can readily be done in 9 hours? Six days at sea? Choppy nights, even if the ship has stabilizers? But then again, the food was excellent and the service aboard was first rate, outright luxurious for those of us used to more basic modes of transport. Anyway, in a pean to middle class expectations (pardon the sarcasm, for I am an unredeemable snob on matters of travel vs. tourism) over the next several weeks I shall be posting, more or less in order, some scenes from our “life at sea” in late March and early April, a travelogue of the all too traditional type. -- source link
