The Voyage on the Nieuw Satendam began on November 10 with the two of us on board. Our ride to the “launch site,” Port Everglades, began with a Lyft….nice driver, nice car, nice conversation, nice ride. We were on our way for another adventure. The Ship was destined for a 7-Day Eastern Caribbean Cruise from Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale headed for the Amber Cove in the Dominican Republic, San Juan in Puerto Rico, St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Half Moon Cay in the Bahamas. Our bags were packed and Leonardo, our driver, was right on time. The sun was shining, the condo lights were off, the door was shut and locked – we were on our way.
