Okay to answer some questions. The weather was okay while on the trip. Only a little bit rain. Lots of Clouds, but because out here in the Desert it has been since October since we got ANY measurable rain, it was a nice change.

I.M. is Isla Margarita, Venezuela located 14 miles north of the Mainland. The nearest town on the mainland is Barcelona, Venezuela.

Looking at the Golden from the side, I always thought it looked like a running shoe.

And although it is a big ship, it seems "cozy" inside.

Yes, Princess is the Love Boat. the original Pacific Princess was the ship in the TV Show, and they are building a new one to be called the Pacific Princess that will be a sister to the Caribbean Princess (BIG BOAT) I think the original Pacific Princess is now either the Sun Princess or the Tahitian Princess.

And to get to the SkyWalker Nightclub above the back of the boat, you have to take a moving sidewalk.

Really a neat ship, good ports, bad entertainment, decent food.
