Reflections in Tanner Springs Park
Back in Portland, I walked a few blocks to Tanner Springs Park, which has a pond that is always the source of interesting reflections.

Blue Seas and Skies
Sailing from St. Thomas to Fort Lauderdale on November 30, the last day of our cruise, we had little to do but enjoy the gorgeous views and upbeat entertainment. This post: blue seas and skies and the ship's wake. Tomorrow: sunsets.
