They had been invited to Seoul, Korea, as guests of the Korean government. Don, along with 19 other U.S. veterans, was honored for his service during the Korean Crisis. Later, he flew on to Hong Kong, Kuala Lampur, Auckland, NZ and finally to Fiji. The crew is professional and exudes confidence. I am very impressed.
Every day gets better.
Rigel and Clyde have been very helpful to me. He is taking part in the navigation class that Chief Mate Brian is teaching. An old hand at getting to know a foreign port, he enjoyed his time in Suva. He visited the Cultural Center to see fire walking, did a lot of shopping and visited the Fiji Museum and the University of the South Pacific, especially enjoying their book store.
