We arrived here at Port Blair today, March 16, 2011 at about noon. The rain immediately began and it's is now 3:00pm and it is still raining very heavy with some lightning. So, we decided against venturing out to the town. It looks like the rain will continue to be very heavy.
Our next stop will be after 3 sea days in Cochin, India on Sunday, March 20, 2011. We will depart the ship there for a 3-day overland adventure to the Taj Mahal and will rejoin the ship in Mumbai, India on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 in the late evening.
