Cruise Day 7 - Grand Turk

We had a sea day morning followed by a port day, since we did not arrive until noon.  Of course, Valentine's decorations abounded.  The cake display on the left was near the ship's atrium while the one on the right was on the island.  It looked a bit too permanent to be a valentines's day special.
The water here was extremely clear.  As we were docking, I looked down and could see rocks on the bottom which has to be close to 40' deep!

This port has built up a lot since we were last here in 2015 - wow has it really been 11 years?  The John Glenn/Mercury program exhibit was much improved and modernized.  It's located here because the prime landing zone for those flights was just off this island. 

We took it easy and watched a movie in the afternoon.  Mary got this sunset picture before the clouds closed in. They had the chocolate fountain going for dinner again tonight


Tomorrow is a sea day as we head back to Port Canaveral.  It's been a great cruise!
