From Belize, Miracle sailed for two nights and one day, first to the north off the coast of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, then east off the north coast of Cuba before passing by the Florida Keys and Miami, and finally reaching its home port of Port Everglades, Fort Lauderdale, early in the morning on Sunday 9 December. Our 8-day cruise was over, far too soon it felt. I wrote a review of the cruise for the website Cruise Critic.
After disembarking we took a taxi directly to the airport where we caught a noon flight to Atlanta, Georgia. There, after a two hour wait, we boarded a flight to Los Angeles, arriving at 6pm. At 10.30 pm we boarded the 14-hour Qantas flight to Sydney, arriving the following morning, and after another wait there of two hours or so, we completed the last leg to Adelaide. We were back home, tired but happy after a great journey that began in mid-August and had taken us to many fascinating places and sights.
To our readers, thanks for all the emails we received during our trip. We hope to maintain this Blog, so if you wish to, you are most welcome to check in from time to time to see where we are and what we're up to. We don’t think we've yet worked travel out of our system. To the contrary, I have a strong feeling that those insects that bit us in the Belizean jungle will prove to have been travel bugs, not mosquitoes. With so many bites, and our pre-disposition, it may be impossible to resist the symptoms. We can handle that!
