On the way back to the US, the ship made a stop at Falmouth, Jamaica. Falmouth terminal was far away from the town. There are some local shops and markets outside the port terminal that we could walk to for souvenir shopping. But mainly, we hang out at the terminal shopping area. Unless taking an excursion from the ship, one did not have much to do on land. It was a very windy day. Fountains and water features were turned off. We heard that even beach excursion was cut short to be safe from the strong wind.

NASSAU, THE BAHAMAS: The last time I was in Nassau was a cruise trip with Mom, Tan, Lieu and Hoang's family in August 2011. A lot of changes happened around the port terminal. It was a very busy port with six mega cruise ships docked that day. There are lots of constructions going on around the cruise terminal. We walked around downtown Nassau, visited the Straw Market, climbed up the famous Queen's Staircase, saw Bennet's Hill and Fort Fincastle.
