We finished our first full day on the cruise ship and it’s pretty much all wonderful.  The views of the places we cruise by are stunning.  The food and accommodations are excellent.  And of course, the company that the four of us keep is pretty darn great as well.  We had opportunities to go into Kosadasi, Turkey and to get off at Ephesus, but we were all tired and decided that staying right here on the ship was the best option for us.  We wanted to make sure that we all stayed hydrated, taking advantage of the $25 unlimited beverages on board the ship.  The internet on the ship is spotty and slow.  I have not been able to post anything on Camanoescape.com because I can’t hook up to the web site , so these posts are sitting on my computer in word format.  I’ll have to post them at a later time perhaps when weleave the ship for good in Santorini in a couple of days.(We arrived at the Island of Rhodes this morning, our third day on the ship.  At a beach side restaurant with Wifi that solves the internet problem temporarily!
