South America Cruises
Leg 3
Fortaleza, Brazil
March 14, 2013
The only part of Fortaleza we saw was the city skyline. The cruise ship attempted to dock and the water wave conditions made the ship unstable and was just rocking too much to stay at port, so it had to be abandoned and go back out to sea.
They stayed only long enough to get one critically ill patient off the ship for emergency treatment that had fallen and broken their hip.
