I had to laugh at how you ended this post ... with the roosters taking up the Call to Prayers. Sometimes, I go outside in the early mornings hours, in the most silent time of the night. Then the roosters in my neighborhood will begin their concert. There is a Maestro, a deep-baritoned fellow with a robust and melodic crow. The others pale in comparison, screeching out their croaky versions that rarely get the tune right. Your cantor is the Maestro, while all the scratchy recorded versions of the Call to Prayers, which I've heard in Israel, are all the immature cockerels in my neighborhood.

It nice to see that you are having a great time even though you might be forgetful puts you in the same list with us folks back here. When the large cruise ships pull away from the dock and you're not on the ship you have to figure out how to get to the next stop. My wife and I have watched "runners" trying to get there on time. Enjoying your photos and narrative of everything.
