World Cruise 2017 Day 15 San Diego, California

Thursday, January 19, 2017

Today the ship arrived at San Diego, California at 7 AM.  Today all non-USA citizins had to meet with agents before any USA citizens could leave the ship.  Before Breakfast I made some telephone calls.  By 9:30 AM the ship was cleared.  I had scheduled a tour to the Zoo but I cancelled it a few day ago so that I would have time to transmit my data that I have written to my blog.   I went to the cruise terminal and got on the internet.  It did not work well so at 10:30 AM I took the complimentary shuttle to the Horton Plaza a large shopping center in San Diego.  I did not have much luck and I tried to find something on the web using my I-Phone.  I was not having much luck so I returned to the ship.  When I got back to the ship terminal I gave it one more shot to see if I could transmit to the blog.  It worked but it later failed and I finally gave up and went back to the ship.  I took my camera up to the top deck and took some pictures of the area of San Diego around the ship.   After dinner I went to the show.  It was put on by the Lomax Brothers.  These are two brothers side by side at the piano in a high-energy, versatile piano and vocal show.  The weather today in San Diego was 60 degrees so you needed a jacket.  The captain announced that the seas may be rough tonight and he was taking a path further south to minimize the waves.  As I write this after returning from the show the ship was moving but it was scheduled to get worse.
