What an amazing adventure. I wasn't sure what to expect and I'm still not sure that I actually have the language to describe the voyage other than to say it was like visiting the Original Garden. Our naturalists were incredibly knowledgeable and made our excursions meaningful and fun; the crew catered not just to our "vacation" needs but also, literally, to our physical needs. I was very concerned for my 83 father's safety and the entire crew, including Captain Victor, took such great care of him, ensuring that he was able to participate as fully as he wanted in a safe manner, was above and beyond. The crew also took into account that a ten year old might feel a little out of place in a crowd of teenagers and adults, and they were so exceptionally kind to my nephew. A wonderful crew and if you ever need a nurse to go on any voyage, I'm your trusted Shellback :-) Thank you all again.
