We were docked before 6 AM and the fist passengers were disembarking before 8AM. Kathy and I had chosen the last time slot of 10:15AM. We were off before that and had cleared immigration before 10:30. We took a taxi to our hotel for the night. I picked up a rental SUV from the airport and we will start the 2 day drive to Houston first thing in the morning.
Well, I did it! I was up and in a position to see and photograph the sunrise on every morning of the cruise. Sometimes, I was there but the sun did not show up.
We are completing our World Cruise as we are about to return to where we started on Jan 3

A bit of color for the sunrise.
These are some of the estimated 14,000 pieces of luggage being unloaded. These one will be shipped directly to the passengers homes vis a process called Luggage Transfer. They either received it as a benefit or paid for the service. Bags that people took with them had been taken inside and sorted by a color tag first so people could easliy find their bags. It was a very smooth process.
Truick were provisions for the ship's next cruise to Europe which leaves late this afternoon
Luggage coming off and supplies getting staged to be loaded.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) had a mobile scanner for the luggage that was shipped directly to the passengers homes.
