Fort Lauderdale Arrival

This morning we arrived in Fort Lauderdale. Made it to the hotel at about 10:00am, but our room wasn't ready. However, our friends Pat and Barry from the UK drove over from their time share and had us over to their place for lunch. We also picked up a few supplies. We know that along the Amazon River we will be visiting some villages that have children in need of school supplies. We purchase some erasers; rulers; colored pencils and some colored hair bands to give them. This is a tradition that the Princess ships do when they traverse the Amazon River.

About midday tomorrow we will be boarding the Royal Princess for the trip south.
