2023 in Bahamas (Great Stirrup Cay)

the Norwegian Joy ship crossing made its way to the line-run Great Stirrup Cay, an island that makes up a bit of The Bahamas:

• had some great free eats and drinks (all came with the ship fare)
• rested on the beach with enough "beach beds" on which to lie down and spread out
• stepped into the sea with all the fish while the rains came down at one time

"sun + rain + sea"

the ship had, a few months before, swapped this stopover with Costa Maya, Mexico and it had its greatness:

• 🍹 8,000 "sailors" ended up on this island, but never had to wait long for drinks!
  • again, the food and drink were free with the ship fare
• 🌦️ everyone (myself as well) had fun at this last stop of the sailing
  • when the "sun showers" came down, many (myself as well) went straight into the water
• 🚫💎 no one selling fake shiny stones to "boomers"

"only rest and fun"

had no setup for this leg of the trip:

• no rush to get anywhere
• no one to meet up
• nothing to buy
• only rest and fun before the end of the sailing
