This Grand Voyage is coming to its end. The talk now is sprinkled with ideas for packing, exchanging contact information, and what the weather is like back home. This seems like a good time to show our mascots for this voyage, the penguins. When we first boarded the ship back in January, there were eight large stuffed penguins in the atrium. The have been reappearing throughout the cruise in varied outfits… Australia night, Black & Gold Gala, Super Bowl, the Academy Awards, prison night because we visited Devil’s Island yesterday, and my favorite, Chinese New Year.

When we walked around Devil’s Island, I saw my first agouti. This little guy became my art project for the day.
