It is Christmas! I saw the sun set from an old fort last night after swimming and a long walk on the bayside beach. Now we are at a palm-lined beach on the ocean, dreaming of authentic snow because it would so fit the season. Our snow is made of cotton.
This version of “I Saw Three Ships” is happy and beautiful and very much worth listening to. Many ships sail into our bay every day. I see them at a distance from the balcony and then up close, as my bus passes by the port of Salvador.
Each ship is calm and majestic coming in past the islands and then festive, sitting at the docks with fluttering flags.
Axé.

Merry Christmas! 🙂
And happy new year, Geoffrey and Human! I’m locked out of Facebook, so it’s nice to see you here!
