A huge ship

We often get cruise ships visiting Santa Cruz. Today we had a particularly huge one, the Navigator of the Seas. Apparently it holds 3,000 passengers and over 1,000 crew.

So the Santa Cruz’s population went up by around 15% while it was in port.

And the novel’s got to 66,024 words. I do love seeing another thousand roll up.
