Yay, the sun is out. Boo, it is 62 degrees with Force 6 winds. Today is the last day we can partake of the Ultimate Balcony Breakfast - a gift from our travel agent. We have been waiting for nice weather so we can eat the breakfast on our actual balcony, but it never happened. We could put warm clothes on, but everything would blow away.
Thanks, Debbie!
Ense-NADA
Can you spot the sea lions? I counted 8 of them.
We made a perfunctory stop at Ensenada, Mexico from 4 pm to 8 pm. It is a city of over 400,000, but there is not much there for tourists, but it has a spiffy new port and cruise terminal. Ensenada receives a lot of calls from cruise ships due to the Jones Act. It's not really the Jones Act, it's the Passenger Vessel Services Act, but everybody calls it the Jones Act. Both the Jones Act and the PVSA are antiquated federal laws designed to protect US shipping.
Lining Up Again
We happened to walk by the dining room at 4:10 pm. There was somebody in line already - for the 5:30 dinner seating! Yes, she was in line. She was not just coincidentally near the dining room. She was sitting on her scooter, parked facing the closed door to the dining room and she had her Kindle.
At 5:00 pm there were maybe eight or ten people in line. I think they had just come back from the port and didn't want to have to bring their backpacks and shopping bags "all the way" back to their cabins.

A busy night and we lose an hour due to time zone change.
