Philip M. Haggerty
The next day we arrived in Mazatlan. We had
signed up for the estuary bird watching expedition. The pier had a number
of people in bright green jackets working for the various tour companies.
One of them told us to follow him through the pier side bazaar and to a
waiting area. There we waited again for the rest of our group, When they
showed up it turned out that eight of them were Russians from the Stockton
area in California and six were from southern California; but none were
from our ship. They all were passengers on Royal Caribbean’s Vision of the
Seas which was docked immediately behind Diamond Princess. In any event we
shortly boarded a small boat which had a roof, but was otherwise open. We
traveled up the estuary, or perhaps down, since it was in a southerly
direction observing the local birds. There were pelicans everywhere and
the beautiful frigate bird. After we left the port area we sailed along
the mangrove groves which formed the shoreline, and saw many wading birds. Ever thought of becoming a part time or home based travel agent? Follow this link to see some of the books Tom Ogg has authored.
