The unthinkable has happened….it’s our last port today.  GUATEMALA HOORAY!

AAAND I only have one final left and it’s an art project.  Score!

This rest of this entry will be a tribute to a entertaining and recurring character in my blob:  Edwin Winfield Platt III, also known as Win or Winner

Direct quotes from Win:

Making room for us at a table at lunch--
Win: “I’m just trying to be hospital!”
Jill:  “Do you mean hospitable?”

At lunch another day --
Win: “Okay guys, can we talk about dragons for a minute?”

After just watching the sunset –
Win: “Hey!  Where did the sun go?”

Last night --
Win: “That sounded really ingeneric…
I mean insincere?”

Funny abbreviations or mispronunciations of countries or cities we have visited:

•       Amarrekech (real name:  Marrakech)
•       Namibs (real name: Namibia)
•       Swakumundo (real name: Swakopmund)
•       Cambodes (real name: Cambodia)
•       Guats (real name: Guatemala)
•       Antiguas (real name: Antigua)

He likes to make things plural.
