Sea breezes reminded me of the time my husband and I took a freighter trip in the Caribbean. There were only 3 passengers and we were two of them! We sailed around to various islands and got as far as Venezuela. At every stop we were able to get off and visit whatever place we were at. Sometimes the lovely captain arranged a taxi or some other form of transportation to take us into the city, as the commercial ports were not set up for tourists. It was a lovely way to travel, although not available to anyone 80 years old or older, so I’m glad I got to do it while I could. Nice memories.

Oh, Betty, you bring back a dream I had so many years ago! I remember researching freighters, and how to travel on them. Never got to do it. I love knowing that you did. It always seemed to me to be an ideal way to travel. Thanks for writing this!
Lovely story!
