New Years Eve and we just lost another passenger. Our day in Santerem, Brazil was extended because a lady fell on the gangway and broke her hip. We were late getting out of port because of this. We understand that as of this morning she is still in a hospital in Santerem because the insurance company cannot get their act together.
Later that afternoon, someone had a stroke on the ship. No other information there.
Then we heard two ladies were removed from the ship after the first week because they had been seasick 24 hours a day for the entire trip.
This morning all outside decks were closed because we had a medical evacuation via helicopter and some patient was removed to French West Guinea. Don't know what happened there either.
A good portion of the ship is sick with Noroviras.
Now Mark is walking the hallways and the stairs with his hands in his pockets to avoid disease. The next evacuation will be him with a broken leg from falling down the stairs.
Yikes......
And on a lighter note, here is a picture of the pizza Mark and I ordered in Santarem in a nice little restaurant where we could not read anything on the menu but "pizza" and "burger". We pointed at a pizza and this is the one we got. Notice the nice green peas all over it. On the top of Mark's list of foods that he doesn't like is "peas". I got quite a laugh out of that.
