Ensenada Quick Stop

….and we continued our Orientation during and after the 623 students and 33 Life Long Learners boarded in Ensenada Mexico. Now the ship is busy and full of people! 

Fortunately there was sufficient time for a walk into Ensenada for an evening meal with a group of Faculty on Monday evening and again for a morning stroll down the main street on Tuesday.

Just enough time to locate and buy some Sturgeron (which is meds for seasickness!!!)

 A first for me:  the Post Office painted Pepto-Bismal pink!

 

Lard in the grocery - for frying all those tacos!

As soon as we departed Ensenada at 1800 hours the MV Explorer began rockin’ and rollin’ across moderately-heavy seas toward Hawaii.  Many folks quickly took the seasick meds very seriously!  I was not seasick – perhaps the Sturgeron or perhaps my good luck?

Fully oriented (thankfully), classes began on Friday January 11, 2013.  The semester has begun!
