Today, our last day at sea brought a little more onboard adventure. About 7:15 a.m. we awoke to the drawers in the staterooms coming open, the clothes swinging in the closet and what Dennis calls, "a scraping sound from the bottom of the ship". Yes, we went slightly aground while making a turn from the Buenos Aries channel back into the Atlantic. It seems the pilot we took on thought that when he turned the front of the ship, he forgot there was something following in the back. The captain said if he had his way the pilot would be strung up on the yardarm. We're about 4 hours late for our arrival in Rio, but for us it doesn't matter.
We have now danced from the Pacific to the Atlantic; eaten every imaginable type of food and have seen lots of shows, won lots of prizes, and basically had an all around good time.
This; however, will be our last Blog -- we're departing from the ship and will be busy packing and making arrangements to move to the hotel in Rio.
To one and all -- Have a Very Merry Christmas -- we'll be home to help you bring in the New Year.
This blog has been a great experience for us -- we hope all of you will Blog us on your next vacation.
Adios
The Six BMK Travelers
PS Good Luck to Charles tomorrow.
