TUESDAY - WEDNESDAY - 2 days at sea. Just the usual sea days but it's now nice enough to walk on the deck without a jacket. Wednesday was formal so the singers and dancers performed. They are a talented group on board for all 60 days and perform 8 times (shows are only 30 mins.). Unlike on many cruise ships, this team does not have to do any other jobs so they have quite an easy life. A couple doing a tribute to The Beatles performed in the theatre one night and the Explorers Lounge the next day.
A man was found dead a few decks below us. The room steward checked the room after the "do not disturb" sign was on for a couple days and found him. Quite a shock for her.
SAN MARTIN - The middle of nowhere - the ocean on one side of us and brown, desert like landscape on the other. We're about 20 minutes from Paracas and 40 minutes from Pisco so have to take a Princess shuttle to town as that's the only transportation. A lot of passengers left the ship this morning for a 2 night excursion to Machu Pichu. They will rejoin us in Lima.
We were here a few years ago so most of the shore excursions are to places we've already seen so it was a day on the ship. There were about 20 vendors set up in tents on the pier offering the usual t-shirts, magnets, etc. Thd most popular tent was the one offering samples of the local liquor Pisco.
