just a quick note to say we're back on the high seas. the exhaustive boipeba island experience i can't yet put into words, but will post soon. this morning, at the first global studies class following salvador, i discovered why a psychology phd, rather than a global studies or ethnic studies scholar, is coordinating, or least feels qualified to coordinate the global studies class - he has black family members. sigh!
my friend james gave me a copy of 1000 places to see before you die. after san juan, the first thing i did once back on the ship was to see if the gallery inn was in it. i did the same for boipeba island. neither are but should be, especially boipeba, while staying at the pousada santa clara.
thus far, all my port experiences have been grand. on boipeba i was having such a great time, i thought if i had to go back to the us now, i'd leave totally content, with wonderful memories. then, this morning i found out that, in cape town, i will be having dinner at the archbishop's home with other invited guests. they actually felt they needed to ask if i was going to be available.
i've been having an embarrassing amount of fun.
